About

Tirreno Apostol is a multi-stage gravel event departing from Santiago de Compostela, the historic pilgrimage capital of Galicia. Distances and full route details are still to be confirmed, but the Galician setting points towards a route through oak and eucalyptus forests, granite villages and the relentlessly rolling terrain of the inland northwest. This event blends the spirit of pilgrimage with modern gravel culture. At Push Rider, rolling wet-terrain stage events are shaped by the sport psychology pillar —fatigue management and inter-stage pacing strategy— with weekly coach review adjusting power targets for repeated accelerations so that equipment and tactics perform when Galician tracks turn demanding. A natural fit for riders who appreciate cultural context as much as physical challenge.

How to prepare for the Tirreno Apostol with PUSH TRAINING 360?

A 3-day stage event in the Santiago de Compostela area combines Atlantic terrain with the demands of accumulated effort. The 12-week PUSH TRAINING 360 plan with weekly review adapts to this format with 4 phases: aerobic base, threshold construction, specificity loading with consecutive-day blocks adapted to the final distances once confirmed, and a pre-event taper. The 3-phase nutrition approach covers glycogen loading before, active fuelling during each stage, and overnight protein recovery. Pacing strategy in a 3-day event requires careful dosing of effort from the very first stage.
