The Journey
The book charts Wiggins's journey from the initial idea to the moment he crossed the line, breaking the record. Along the way, Wiggins provides insights into his training, his mental preparation, and the challenges he faced.
Wiggins began training for the record attempt in October 2014. He worked with a team of experts to develop a training plan that would allow him to reach his peak performance on the day of the attempt. Wiggins also underwent a series of mental preparation exercises to help him stay focused and motivated throughout the process.
The record attempt took place on June 7, 2015, at the Lee Valley VeloPark in London. Wiggins rode a specially designed bike and wore a skin suit that was designed to minimize drag. He paced himself carefully throughout the hour, and he crossed the line with a time of 54.526km. The record was broken by 1,611m.
The Challenges
Wiggins's record-breaking attempt was not without its challenges. He faced a number of setbacks during his training, including a crash that left him with a broken collarbone. He also had to deal with the pressure of expectation from the media and the public.
Despite the challenges, Wiggins remained focused on his goal. He worked through the setbacks and he never gave up on his dream of breaking the world hour record. His determination and perseverance paid off in the end, and he achieved his goal in style.
