      Hi Lynda,

       

      I'm planning on doing the Oregon 24hr July 12th as part of a duo.  This would be my first race where I will be riding up to 12 hours in approximately 1.5 hour segments (I did a 10 hour mtn bike ride this past summer.)  I've done mostly 2.5-3 hr races and cyclocross.  I'm a 46 year old female.   I also need to lose about 13 pounds by then.  I've had success with your Cat 1 mtn bike Build, Peak, Race program in the past.  Which training programs would you stack for this upcoming year?

       

      Thanks

      I recommend you start asap with the Weight Loss and Base training plan. The goal for this plan is to build aerobic base and lose 12 lbs in 12 weeks. 

      Then I recommend you follow the Masters 40+ MTB 100 Mile Personal Record Training Plan starting on 4/21/14 to peak for your 24 hour Duo race on July 12th.
