Seriously want to get into competative cycling, just not had a chance to fully up the training due to a few long distance running races recently, but as of next week I don't have a long distance running race until june (trail marathon ).
My problem is hills! These are the area I really wish to do well in (being good at climbing hills has a certain romance about it) but due to limited time on the bike as a consequence of max time on the feet, hills sodding hurt and I am struggling to keep up on the faster club runs!
wed-fri I am more than happy to do 6.00-6.30 training dedicated to hill, does anybody have good excersizes/recommendations on how to tackle this? i.e. just spam my bike up the hill as many times as I can in 30 mins, do one slow, one sprint, one slow etc?
Help is appreciated, thanks!!
