Plan Description
This plan is for those training for an ultra distance multiday event or race, such as the Pan Celtic Race or All Points North, in the following year. It's the perfect plan to get an early start on building your fitness and learning about what's involved in becoming mentally prepared for these challenging events. It's suitable for multiday events on or off road.
It includes access to a 12 week off the bike conditioning program on the We Go Far app, with follow along workouts that can be done at home. After completing this conditioning programme you'll be ready to transition to winter strength training.
Training for ultra distance events is about more than getting physically fit, so included is an extensive learning module to support you in your training and event preparation. This was created through documenting all that I have learned through coaching many athletes training for the toughest ultra events in the UK, LEL and PBP. It covers: intro to structured training; goal setting; nutrition on and off the bike; rest and recovery; test events; bike comfort vs speed, and much more.
If you are looking for a training programme to help you step up from all day events or 300km audaxes, this plan is for you, and you'll also be invited to the We Go Far Discord community, alongside my one to one and group coaching athletes, all training for similar events.
The plan is based on three progressive blocks of four weeks**, with the fourth week as a rest period. The endurance volume builds over the 12 weeks, whilst working on improving your average speed and resilience to back to back rides. Total duration over each week builds from 10 to 14 hours.
A typical week looks like:
Monday - Active recovery
Tuesday - Conditioning workout + Bike intervals
Wednesday - Yoga
Thursday - Active recovery
Friday - Conditioning workout + bike intervals
Saturday/Sunday - One long endurance ride, one shorter endurance ride
Bike interval workouts are power based and compatible with smart trainers, Zwift and other apps and platforms. Endurance rides are heart rate based.
**If you have a menstrual cycle that is longer or shorter than around 28 days, or you are peri or post menopausal, please contact me for an adapted plan at the same price. alison@veloqi.cc
