RACE SPECIFIC TRAINING

IT IS ESSENTIAL to be intentional with our training for a particular race. It can mean all the difference in the world to how we perform... ... specificity is king. It took me a long time to crack the code to epic distance racing. More than one person, this year, heck this week!, has asked me how to go fast at Leadville. I've told every single one of them, some for months... ... You've got to develop the capacity to ride Tempo for long periods of time. There's more to it. Developing the discipline to stay out of Threshold and VO2 max... ... is critical to success. Funny thing is,nobody, apparently, wants to hear this. How do I know? Because I keep getting the same calls from the same people asking me what to do. lol In 2012, I did an 8:32. Here's the chart of my HR. In 2019, I PR'd at 8:15 In 2022, I PR'd again at 7:57 Does anything stand out there to you? Look at the time spent at Threshold with each effort. Would this work for a... track racer crit racer XC racer road racer ... not for max performance. Why it works is a story for another day. === 163.57 hrs sleep 60 PushUps 20 PullUps 30 minutes recovery 120 minutes reading + Journaling 101Strava
