Junior
How many base miles?
Well. My off season pretty much starts on Monday, and I'm really excited for getting stuck into some winter training!
Next year is my first as a junior, so that means longer races at a faster pace.
The question is, how many miles?
Or is it just a case of "Pedalare! Pedalare!"?
Is there anything I should work into my training routine?
My sprinting's pretty poor.
