As Ed Laverack has mentioned on his recent training catch up - freedom of movement allowing - we're going to take part in a Time Trial up Alp d'Huez (La Grimpee Alpe d’Huez) followed 2 days later by the famous Gran Fondo, La Marmotte.
To obtain a good TT time on Alp d'Huez (13km +1100m) will require strong threshold power, whilst a gold time on La Marmotte (174km +5000m) will require excellent endurance at sweetspot!
La Marmotte takes in the Col du Glandon, the Col du Telegraphe, the Col du Galibier and Alp d'Huez
Over the next 2 months I'll be documenting the cycling training, strength training and nutrition to get a good time at these events - and the rational for each. The level of excitement is HIGH.
