This is a generic question I’m afraid. I’m 47M and a beginner cyclist (I have completed some metric and imperial centuries, the longest ride being 200KM).

My intent is to quality for the 2027 PBP and participate. I’ll already be 49 then, and there’s no telling what my physical state would be for the 2031 edition. So, participation in the 2027 edition is a priority.

Can you point me to some training regimen I can follow to build up endurance for 300KM - 600KM rides? I intend to spend 6-8 hours a week working on it.

Most of the training plans I find online are for distances less than 200KM or for races.

Thank you.
