Peaking is about being ready on your goal race day. Ready in every sense from physical to mental and all the other variables which go into preparation. It’s a long road to get to this point: Aerobic Base Building, Hill Strength Training, Anaerobic Development, Integration, Taper then Peak.

The Lydiard Pyramid, shown here, is designed to train the specific systems, in sequence, to lead you to a peak performance on race day. Do the work and you stand a good chance of attaining your goal!

Signing up for a Lydiard plan is done via The Running Wizard. You will be asked a series of questions to drive the plan specific to you and your current fitness level.
