I'm downloading it now, and I'll watch it tomorrow morning. A great deal for $10.99! Go to www.thesufferfest.com.
Here's the rundown of the workout:
The Workout
Where the other 'fest videos have short, nasty and high power intervals, The Hunted is something else all together. Focused on longer, less intense efforts, it gives you a solid threshold workout that still manages to drain you of everything you've got. Here's what happens:
6:30 warm-up: Gradually up the pace, over the intro, footage from a group ride in California, and some pack riding in the Tour de Suisse.
:30 attack: A violent effort to get away from the complacent peloton.
5:00 solo-breakaway tempo riding: You'll ride at effort level 7/10 with Marco Pinotti as he plows through the TT course of the Tour of Romandie.
20:00 climb: Caught by the group, you'll start a long, difficult climb in the group, then in a small breakway and ultimately alone as you ride with Robert Gesink over the queen stage in the Tour de Suisse. Efforts range from 7/10 to 8.5/10.
4:00 downhill: This isn't a time to rest...especially when you're solo trying to hold off the chasers! You wouldn't get to take it easy in a race, so I don't want to hear any whining. You'll take the resistance off but you'll ramp that cadence up to 115+ to train some fast pedaling technique.
5:00 small group: Caught by three other riders, you'll swap off the front in a small breakaway as you hurtle toward the finish line, while the pack looms behind. Effort of 6.5 to 7/10.
5:00 inverse intervals: As you're the sort who goes for the big glory, you'll attempt to attack and shed your breakaway companions. You'll do :50 tempo, then :10 attack, then :40 tempo/:20 attack, :30 tempo/:30 attack, :20 tempo/:40 attack, :10 tempo/:50 attack
?: It wouldn't be the 'fest if there wasn't a small (small) sting in the tail now, would it?
4:00 warm-down

I'm a family guy who is addicted to swim/bike/run and anything to do with getting out into the backcountry wilderness areas. This blog focuses on the swim, bike, run and other various aspects of my attempts to finish in the top ten percent of my age group in whatever race I do. It used to be all about finishing the legs of an Olympic Distance triathlon: swim in 20 minutes, bike in 60 minutes, and run in 40 minutes. Now, it's more about training well and finishing well.
