2 weeks - bike workout for my first ever 200kms Ride To Conquer Cancer

Here it is! My next 2 week workout program. It has been personally designed for me as I attempt my first ever 200kms bike ride in Brisbane 17th-18th August for the Ride To Conquer Cancer event. For those that would like to donate, my next ride is now scheduled for Sydney 12th-13th October.
Would love your support here.

Please feel free to follow if you too would like lean legs and buns of steel! Ha! You know what I mean.  I will be following my FYM program for the warm up and warm down sessions. It will be interesting to see how I go with my 200km program. Please ensure you get your Doctors okay with this program. If you have any past medical or injuries please never over train and listen to your body. You can read more about my disclaimer here.

What has been something you have never done before that required a lot of preparation?

So here we go! I hope you too have set your own personal goal for our 31 day water August challenge as we increase our water throughout the day. Have you been drinking plenty of water?

Much love and friendship,
