Kim,

Congrats on your performance improvements. Great to hear your hard work has paid off.

I recommend you progress on to the 6-Hour Solo Mountain Bike – Personal Record Plan when you are finished with your Base plan. Follow the final 6-7 weeks of this plan timing week 12 to fall on Big Frog race week.

4/28/14 – take a week off training!

5/12/14 start the Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Build, Peak and Race Training Plan and follow weeks 1 – 8 of this plan. This will give your performance a nice mid season speed boost and set you up for a great fall of endurance racing.

7/7/10 start the 6-Hour Solo Mountain Bike – Personal Record  and follow all 12 weeks to a peak at 9/27 6 hour Jack Rabbit Mountain.

09/29/14 – take a week off training to relax and recover

10/06/2014 – repeat week 11

10/13/2014 – repeat week 12 and race 6 hour Oak Mountain

10/20/2014 – repeat week 11

10/27/2014 – repeat week 12 and race 6 hour Dry Creek

Looks like a fun season of training and racing!
