There are no two ways about it, 100 Milers are HARD.
But I find that for most people the hardest part is finding the finding time for training.
​
While professional athletes can spend all day training those with other commitments such as work and family need to be a little 'smarter' with their training approach.
All too often competitors start 100 Mile races ill prepared for the challenge that lies ahead of them due to ineffective training and fail to reach their full potential or even enjoy the ride.
While on the flip side, many competitors line up exhausted, injured or over-trained due to unstructured training and are not able to realise their full potential either.
Who is this plan for?
I have designed this plan for those who have got some experience with endurance riding and are tackling their first or second 100 mile race with the aim of finishing to the best of their abilities.
