Training for Paris Brest Paris 2023

Reading Time: < 1 minute

The first thing I’ve been doing for training is to tell everyone I know about my plan. I want to build a lot of peer pressure so I feel accountable.

Given how crazy this project is, I am pretty sure nobody would be really sorry if I wouldn’t pull it off. But some people believe in me and I wouldn’t want to disappoint them!

The overall plan is the following:

  • Winter solstice 19-20 Dec 2020 – 150km minimum – DONE
  • April – start of Rynkeby cycling season – DONE
  • April 24th – 200km – DONE
  • May 8th – 300km – DONE
  • June 5-6 – 600km – DONE
  • July 2021 – Tour de Finland – 1200km in 8 days – DONE
  • August 2021 – 400km – DONE (389km)
  • September 2021 – 200km – DONE
  • 2022 – As many Brevets as possible. Possibly abroad.
    • 4 x 200K
    • 400K
    • RAF 500K
  • 2023 – Super Randonneur series to qualify for PBP
  • August 2023 – Paris Brest Paris

om op een degelijke manier P-B-P te rijden moet men in hetzelfde jaar +- 6a7 duizend km als training hebben gedaan waaronder meerdere malen 200-300-400-600km en in de controles zo weinig mogelijk tijd verliezen om in P-B-P een tijd te realiseren van +- 55 uren anders word het een marteling, van rusten weer op gang komen enz ……groetjes
