About
The CAT700 Bikepacking Adventure links the Pyrenees with the Ebro Delta across 700 km and 12,500 metres of elevation gain, traversing three Catalan provinces: Lleida, Girona and Tarragona. This north-to-south journey compresses Catalonia's extraordinary geographical variety into a single route, from high Pyrenean terrain through intermediate mountain ranges, vineyards and Mediterranean lowlands to the river delta. A multi-day ultra format demanding navigation skill, logistical self-sufficiency and management of cumulative fatigue across approximately a week of riding. Push Rider Training 360 pairs the aerobic base and ultra-specific phases with a three-stage nutrition protocol —adaptation, activation and race-specific— while weekly coach review calibrates the final taper to actual accumulated load. For bikepackers with real multi-day route experience.

How to prepare for the CAT700 Bikepacking Adventure with PUSH TRAINING 360?
With 700 km and 12,500 m of elevation over 4 days in an Ultra Bikepacking format crossing Catalonia from north to south, the CAT700 demands maximum preparation. The 12-week PUSH TRAINING 360 plan with weekly review prioritises: an extensive aerobic base to handle long daily stages, threshold construction to manage Pyrenean passes, specificity loading with several consecutive days on a loaded bike simulating full route autonomy, and a final taper. The 3-phase nutrition approach is decisive: maximum glycogen loading before the start, a continuous fuelling plan alternating carbohydrates and fats over the 4 days, and nightly protein recovery between stages. Pacing in an ultra of this duration and distance must be extremely restrained at the start to complete the event without physical collapse.
