I've just completed a successful mountain bike racing season and starting to prepare my training schedule for next season. My first scheduled race for 2014 is The El Paso Puzzler 50 mile endurance race on 1/19/14 followed by The 12hrs. of Old El Paso 4 person race on 2/1/14 then the 24hrs. of Old Pueblo 4 person race on 2/14 – 2/16. I was browsing through different training plans on trainingpeaks and was wondering which plan would be best suited for me. I'm 48 years old and a Cat 1 mountain bike racer.
Here is how I recommend training for and racing these events to do well and set yourself up for a later peak.
10/7/2013 – Follow the 12 week Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Base Training Plan
12/30/14 – Progress to the Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Build, Peak and Race Training Plan following training plan weeks 1, 2 then skip to week 4 and race El Paso Puzzler on 1/19
1/20/14 – Follow week #11 of the Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Build, Peak and Race Training Plan
1/27/2014 – Follow week #12 of the Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Build, Peak and Race Training Plan and race 12 Hours of Old El Paso
2/3/2014 – Follow week #11 of the Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Build, Peak and Race Training Plan
2/10/2014 – Follow week #12 of the Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Build, Peak and Race Training Plan and race 24 hours in the Old Pueblo
