Hi KCK,

SnF is such a great race! Be prepared for course detours as it usually lives up to its name!

I recommend you follow this training plans stack:

1/18/2021 start the 12-week TIME CRUNCHED Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Base Mountain Bike Training Plan

4/12/2021 start the 12-week TIME CRUNCHED Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Build, Peak and Race Mountain Bike Training Plan but follow only weeks 1-9

6/14/2021 follow all 12-weeks of the 2-5 day Bikepacking Race Mountain Bike Training Plan to peak at SnF on 9/8.

This keeps your training volume low and focused on quality work through 6/14, then ramps it up in the last 12 weeks to practice with your bikepacking equipment and strategies and peak endurance for the 400 mile SnF.
