Having never used a training plan before and realising that intermittent riding on the weekend isn't getting me any fitter I've kicked off a training plan from strava. Its roadie based so I will need to amend it to add some mountain biking to it.
Its less than ideal but better than nothing. Given my time constraints due to work, kids, study etc etc etc I'm just gonna do the best I can. I only have a HRM so the best I can do is target the zones that they suggest and try and estimate cadence.
The objective is to ride the half fling well, aiming for sub 4hr. I have no idea if this is a reasonable goal.
This will be a weekly updated thing and I'm hoping that posting this stuff may keep me motivated and honest.
Happy to receive comments along the way, positive and negative as I'm well aware of my limitations. FWIW I'm closer to 50 that 45 years, 5'11 and 80kgs at the start of this thing.
