Training Plans – where to begin

So, how do we get a fat, unfit 50 yr old to do 80km (50 miles) and get his sorry arse over Ditchling Beacon? Why, we have to train!

So I hit up google looking for training plans and it turns out there are as many plans as there are charities to support on this route.

As I’m doing this for the BHF I thought I’d go with theirs. There are 3 varieties but I’ll begin at the beginning with the beginners. Roll on Sunday for my 2 hour long ride.
