nice. ↑ prob won’t hit the 100k / wk with my training plan, but will still be riding.

what is your training plan looking like? 
We thought with 100k/62 miles it could be pretty achievable distance for most, but still challenging. 😅 🥲

it’s more duration focused as i build strength week on week…riding ~5hrs wk is getting me in the ~40mile range right now. adding another ~2hrs to hit the goal is possible, but aggressive just yet, especially with other commitments (strength, yoga, weekend paddling).

for inclusivity going with 80kms / 50miles a week is still a solid commitment but maybe more achievable for non-duration focused riders? (aware it’s meant to be a challenge after all 😅) thanks for asking cooper.

strength cross-training for overall fitness. i used to commute and yes, could get that mileage easily then. work from home now.

my point is that i’m not going to break my training plan or over exert for this challenge. my goal is to be consistent and sustainable over the long run, not burn out.

just a nudge to think about all participants. not everyone is an endurance athlete and 100km a week is actually a bit dangerous for those without the base fitness.

you’ll prob see more participation with a slightly lower threshold.

you doing more intensity for strength for a specific dicipline of cycling? or is it more for cross-training for something else 

i imagine commuting could get 100k. 

as an endurance rider myself (when not in the street) low intensity can be done for many many hours and kms
