Back on the road to fitness

For several reasons, I have not been on my bike since before Christmas.  This is frustrating personally as I was pleased with the level I had reached; although there was a long way to go before I hit my goals.  Now I am back to square one.  But I am determined to get back on track and today is day one of my fight back.  The weather is still horrendous with strong winds and rain so I will be using Zwift for a while.  Why Zwift?  I’ll leave that for another post.

I have started to train to their Gran Fondo plan but have reduced the length of time it will take to complete the plan from eight to five weeks.  I will keep a weekly record of my progress here.

What I am hoping to get from this training plan is very well summed up in the last sentence of the plan’s description on with Zwift app

You’ll come away ready for long climbs, sustained efforts, and everything else a course might throw at you, thanks to this plan’s proven framework for success over long-distance rides.
