Any support and or suggestions on sequencing programs to get in shape for 12hr MTB races. Just venturing into these, would like to shoot for my first one in April May 2027.
Just looking for suggestions on the order programs should be done.
Thanks for any help.
I just made one custom plan with the end of it being my 24 hour mtb race at the end of June. for the race in the calendar I just put mtb marathon with a duration of 24 hours at a hard intensity. I have been on this plan for 2 months now and it seems to be going well. I do 2 sweet spot workouts a week and one threshold (over/unders) and a dynamic endurance workout on Sunday that will be progressively longer. There are 2 easy endurance rides sprinkled in with all of that. So far I am happy with all the sweet spot work as that will be harder than my 24 hour race pace. My ftp and endurance has been going up while my weight has been going down.
