The track endurance program is a camps-based program. The riders split their time between training in their home states, training camps in Adelaide, racing overseas on the track, or racing overseas on the road as part of a professional trade team. A typical training week for a track endurance athlete includes four to six track sessions plus up to 700 kilometres of road work.
