Few Stats off Strava & Plan for the run in

Just had a dig around Strava

Racked up 4350 odd Km in the last 7 mths of 2023 (and June was when I got my finger out after some tough love from Lang). That's around 620/mth or 150/week.

Here's the distances split into months:

And here it is cut up by elevation gain:

So the distances have been fairly consistent, but I've certainly ramped up the climbing of late. 

I'm hoping for a big 20 days from here. Lots of distance, lots of vertical. But by the time we hit the last week, the window for improvement has basically closed - all you can really do after that is basically refresh. That works in OK with the travel though. So my last hard ride might be Sun 22 Jan, I'm flying to Melbourne on Wed 25, and driving to Bright the next day. Alpine Classic is Sat 28. That'll give me a chance to roll the legs out & shakedown the bike on the day before.
