I know it has been discussed elsewhere, but continue to scratch my head about some of the workout conversions to outdoors. Today I picked Gibbs and it went from a 2 hours indoor workout to a 3 HOUR outdoor workout. I only did 2.5 hours, with 2 minutes of stop time. TSS was WAY over what the indoor workout called for (81). What is the rationale for adding 50% length to a workout?! @IvyAudrain @Bryce ---
