MTB Coaching 2020
What’s Included?
6 Months of Comprehensive Training. Eliminate the guesswork!
The first 5 years of my endurance MTB racing career were wrought with doubt. Was I training the right way? How could I maximize my limited training schedule? Whose advice should I follow? And I make a living as a fitness professional! Trial, error, research, success, and more research led me to develop a program that combines in-gym training, in-gym controlled cycle sessions, outdoor training rides, much-needed fun rides, nutrition, and a strategy that pulls it all together on race day. The following 6-Month Program can guide you to a champion-like finish at the 2020 Leadville 100. No guesswork. Individual Pursuit. Community Support.
Do I really need to do this to complete Leadville?
Of course not. Commit to riding 100 miles or so per week in the few months leading up to August 15th and you’ll have a great chance at completing the ride. If you’re already a decent rider you’ll even make the 12-hr mark with a little luck in the nutrition department and a clean ride mechanically.
Did you commit the Leadville 100 ride to just get by? Not in the least! We commit to massive goals to experience something outside ourselves. Why shortchange the potential for dramatic impact with an amateur approach to your preparation? Commit February to August and you won’t quit on August 15th.
