Thank you @AgingCannon, so in your example you are dropping the 90 min TR ride (3rd ride of default the week in TR) and replacing that with the outdoor ride?
How about if you have time to do 4 TR rides per week plus a long outdoor ride on weekend?
Mon - nothing
Tues - TR workout 1 (or from my previous post should this be TR workout #3 ?)
Wed - pettit
Thurs - TR workout 2
Fri - nothing
Sat - outdoor longer ride
Sun - TR workout 1?
I am trying to have 1 weekend day off as I have a young family so maybe I could do the below?
Mon - TR workout 3 (i.e. longest duration workout of week as prescribed in most plans from default weekly layout)
Tues - TR workout 2
Wed - pettit
Thurs - TR workout 1
Fri - nothing (easy zone 2 run 45-60min?)
Sat - outdoor longer ride
Sun - Nothing
I don’t know where to put my runs (1 minimum but ideally 2 per week). Should I put them on the nothing days or should put them on my easy endurance ride/pettit days, or should I put them on a regular TR workout day so that my nothing/easy days are protected to optimize recovery?
Again, thanks to any feedback and hopefully this will be useful for others too.
