    Hi I’m 24 weeks out from my race and wondering how long the taper period after a big vert plan is as it seems to end on high intensity?

    Do you mean how much time you should take off, reduce volume, and go easy before starting another training cycle? I would say three to four weeks.

    Just looked at my Big Vert plan and within the 20 week plan it has a scheduled 2 week taper that cuts distance/vert volume by 50% still including one Z3 interval each of those 2 weeks.
