Fred Whitton - Worst possible preparation?
Discussion
I'm entered in this years event, only problem is the preparation, or lack of to be correct.
I'll be away for 3-4 weeks prior to the event, getting home a few days before the event taking place. When away I won't be able to do any normal training, I'll be on a vessel and stuck with pretty rubbish stationary bikes. Plus I'll be doing shift work, so being able to get much more than 1hr sessions will be nigh on impossible.
What's the best way to train in these circumstances? Interval, steady pace or a bit of both?
Thanks in advance for any sensible advice. :-)

Thanks all, I'll do as much over the next couple weeks at home for the endurance part, which was always my plan. Plus get as much steep climbs in as I can.
As for the stationary bikes I'll have to use when away, they have about 3/4 turn from very little resistance to too much (for me) resistance. I'll just see what I can do and grin and bear it on the day.

Getting married in Eskdale the Saturday after it takes place - reception at the last pub you'll pass before the Hardknott. Pity as could have made some good spectating!
Cool story etc...looks like a hell of an experience.
