Training

Mickey trains in the gym, on the track or on rollers twice a day, 6 days a week, 312 days a year.

He covers 43 miles a week or 2,230 miles in a year - the equivalent of pushing across the United States from Washington DC to Los Angeles!

Mickey works constantly on his strength, conditioning and diet to perfect his aerodynamic position and to control his power output.
