Most training methods ask us to select races or events as a focus to train towards. It definitely gives a specific time-frame for development. I'm like you though: I train to be able to climb these beasts and enjoy them more - and of course to be faster on them.

Sure it makes you fit (and fast), but also obsessed with aero position and the like. But nothing on earth like a 16 minute pull up Bukit Hantu for me.

Cheers and best wishes for open roads. -jimKL_Habanerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00736339254672671875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332807793763200892.post-19951143842967758252013-07-09T00:29:20.874-07:002013-07-09T00:29:20.874-07:00Cameron Highlands.
