About this plan

Targeting La Marmotte? This is the plan for it. 17 weeks, a solid 10.2 hours a week, every one of them built around a long, hard day on the bike rather than adapted from a template.

Every target is set as a percentage of your own FTP and threshold power, so it fits you and not some average athlete. The weeks climb and then ease in three-week blocks, and across them your endurance, your climbing and the way you put the power down are trained in balance.

Follow it properly and the aim is clear: get you across the line in good shape at La Marmotte.

Common questions

Who is this plan for?

If La Marmotte is your goal, this is your plan. It is pitched at a long, hard day on the bike, aimed at getting you to a strong, controlled finish, and works best when you can hold roughly 10.2 hours a week through the block.

How much training does it involve?

It runs 17 weeks at a solid 10.2 hours a week. The load builds in three-week blocks and then eases back, so the volume is real but never random.

How is the plan delivered?

A single payment drops the whole plan into TrainingPeaks for you, laid out session by session in plain English so nothing is left to guesswork.
