Gravel Race - 60km to 80km Training Plan

The Gravel Race - 60km to 80km plan is 15 weeks long. It comes in 4 levels, Level 0 through Level 3, so choose the volume tier you can sustain. Pricing starts at $39.95 on TrainingPeaks, or it's included with Team 80/20.

About 80 percent of your riding time at low intensity and 20 percent at moderate to high. Cyclists drift into moderate-intensity purgatory more easily than anyone — group rides make it a lifestyle — and restoring the easy-riding majority is usually the single biggest training change in a cyclist's results.

No. Every cycling plan is available in a heart-rate version. Power is the more precise tool and responds instantly to effort changes, so use the power version if you have a meter — but the heart-rate versions enforce the same intensity discipline.

Levels 0 to 3 are weekly-hours tiers. Choose based on the riding time you can sustain every week, not your best-case week. A completed Level 1 plan beats an abandoned Level 2 plan every time.

Through TrainingPeaks. After purchase you apply the plan to your TrainingPeaks calendar, and every workout appears with its structure and intensity targets. Workouts sync to most watches and head units, and your completed sessions are scored against the plan automatically.

Yes. Team 80/20 is $16.58/month when paid annually and includes every 80/20 training plan, TrainingPeaks Premium, and Mind of Matt coaching. If you expect to use more than one plan, the membership costs less than buying plans individually.
