Here in the UK (Midlands) we have a Hill Climbing League which runs from August to October. The climbs range from 90 seconds to 10+ minutes.
What would be the optimum TR Plan to do in order to be best placed to do well in this league?

Depends on your own strengths and weaknesses in the first instance. Once you’ve identified those, things will be clearer.
There are likely a few different plans that are worth considering, but you might be surprised what would get you into hill climb shape.
Something like our Cyclocross plan could be a good option because it uses a short-power build phase and has long suprathreshold, VO2 max, and anaerobic workouts in the specialty phase.
This gives you really good fitness for those short efforts, but also really anything above threshold.
Thanks Eddy - that is just what I was looking for. I’ll give it a go.
