training for a "century"

my last post talked about Bicycling magazine's article on charity rides. they also included a nice chart to help you train for the big event. whether it be a 50 mile (80.5 km) or a 100-mile "century" (161 km)... it's a nice guideline to follow. use the legend at the bottom of the 2nd pic to make sense of the colors.

now if only they could make Calgary weather co-operate with the plan *sigh*. it's supposed to rain and even snow again this week. it's the middle of May for fricks sake!

Century
