Title: So, how many miles a week are we doing?
Post by: Badabing on June 14, 2006, 23:43:58 PM
As the weather is good, im doing 130miles a week ATM, which aint bad, if you chuck in a club ride on a sunday, were look at 160+... nothing spectacular if you look at bike couriers and hardcore racers, but im enjoying the weather and making hay, so to speak...  8)

Ive had a pokey week of quick 15 mile crits, so right around 100 miles. I do ride those short ones in "race mode" so at least get some cardio out of them.  Usually Im doing 150 to 200 miles per week this time of year. Often a couple 40 milers on the weekend, then a bunch of hour rides during the week.

150/week is the minimum if you want to do any sort of competition, unless youre cross-training of course.

Yes, i do some hill sprints in a dress...

Seriously, on top of the 150mile i usually do 2 circuit sessions in the gym, swim twice and do a couple of runs too....

Probably about 50-80 at the moment. It depends if I get chance to get out at the weekend.

Depends what the weather is like in the evening, but if its nice Ill do 30ish @ the weekends and something like 40 during the week

crap weather reduces this drastically

Im currently on a quest to do more like 150 a week though, as I really dont get out on the thing enough currently :(

Theoretically I could do...

156.8 miles a week

Whats more likely to happen once I get up to speed is: 100 - 110miles a week.

Currently done just under 80 miles in my first week of "training" :)
