Training load variation throughout the whole season.
Weekly training volume, training zone and session-RPE are represented. Training volume is represented on the left Y-axis (in km.), while training zone and session-RPE are represented on the right Y-axis with a logarithmic scale. Abbreviations: KM = weekly average km run; Zone = weekly average training zone; RPE = weekly average session-RPE.
