After much consideration, I've decided not to do Rnd 2 of the National Series, which is on this weekend at Stromlo Forest Park. The riding and training I've been doing hasn't really been high intensity so I would suffer more than usual. My bike isn't setup with the right gearing for a 25% gradient climb, and there is an alternative. The AMB 100 Marathon is on this weekend and there is a 66km category that should suite me better. I attempted this race a few years ago and failed to finish. So with some more experience and fitness under the hood it will be good to have another crack.
This is my plan for the week.
MON 90min Race Sim Vary Cadence
TUE Rest
WED 90min 65%-50% High Cadence
THUR 90min 65%-50% High Cadence
FRI Rest
SAT 60min 65%-50% with 3x3min Sprint
SUN AMB 66km Race Stromlo Forest Park
Let me know what you think of my taper week @DaveRoberts44
I'm going to use my SenseCore monitoring to make sure that I hit the mark for each session without getting any fatigue in the recovery sessions. First ride is tonight, I'll post up my SenseCore results after each session. I'll also monitor my sleep on the rest days to make sure I'm not over doing it.
Ride On
