Six weeks ’til first race

[HAMMERJ]

Hey Lynda,

I'm finishing week 6 of 12 hr solo PR. Feel I am doing well but in the mindset that I'm not doing enough, I know from Joe Friel this is a dangerous atitude if I handle it poorly.

I will be going back to work next week which will be physical all day . anfd then trying to get QUALITY saddle time in after work and week ends. When I began the program I had a month of trainer miles averaging an 1-2 hours every couple days. My feeling right now is that I am not as powerfull as I think I should be. Is there something I should be doing differently?

I feel good but getting nervous my ability is not up to par.

Any help would be great.

Also, when this program is finished I will be doing 5 12 hour solos over the next 10 weeks and at the same time will have begun the 12 week 24 hr solo

(1) No

(2) 5 x 12 hour solos in 10 weeks is mostly taper, race and recover. There is not much room left for following a specific training plan.
