Hi,
In Week 6 of the HV HD Build, there are Run Interval workouts described on sequential days. The first one should be Base Run.
Ta.

Hey, Joe.
Can you let me know where youāre seeing that the base run should be first?
From what I can see from the Training Plans page and applied on my own calendar, the two interval run workouts in sequence with the base run at the end are intended:
I dont see that plan applied to your calendar yet so maybe you were just looking at applying it after your race, but please let me know where youāre seeing that so I can help out!
Iāve never seen TR schedule an Interval run two days in a row, and I think Iāve done all the tri plans
This is from the Training Plans section of the app:
I would be really surprised if itās not intended to be base or tempo maybe.
Does āflash runā mean intervals?
Tempo would make some sense I guess. I think itās bananas that there are still 4 high intensity sessions (excluding the swims) in a week on the triathlon plans. I thought that the Tri plans had been updated!
That is the updated version
(jk, jk)
The plan is correct! This is intended.
Flash was a typo, workouts have been updated.
Iāll go ahead and mark this thread as āresolvedā unless you have further questions on this plan in particular?
I think theyāre tempo/threshold runs depending on the nomenclature you use. Sometimes broken up. 25mins or 3x15mins at RPE8 are couple from Build phase.
Iām still seeing flash run in the text, and as above some of the run descriptions arenāt interval runs as most people would understand them.
I was trying to decide between HV HD and LV FD and Iāve decided on the latter so Iāve no skin in the game, just an interested party.
@gesteves Me after a week
@JoeX So pretty tough runs in other words. The structure seems very similar to what is was previously. Iād probably alternate the bike and runs so that youād have 2x bike 1x run one week, and 1x bike 2x run the following week. Even that would be pretty rough going. Best of luck with the FD LV plan.
Yeah, nobody would plan two hard runs in a row.
HV HD is probably the only one I havenāt used before so maybe it was always like that. I had some great gains on HV Olympic last year - I think I prefer more sessions/shorter sessions - and as Iāve done six Ironman triathlons I donāt feel the need for months of long rides. I did just a few before IM Barcelona and hit my goals there.
I did it last summer, though my compliance was not great. It looks like the runs were back to back then as well. At the some point I moved one of the interval runs to Monday and took Tuesday as rest day so Iād get a bit of recovery. But I ended up doubling up on Thurs with Threshold bike and interval run, after a VO2 bike on Wed, so I almost definitely made things worse . After that I ditched one run completely, then my race got cancelled, so I did a bike race league instead, and, at that stage my plan was all over the place.
Long distance biking this year, with a bit short easy running. Iāve an Olympic in a couple of months, but itās mostly just for fun. Iām only just back in the water, but Iām part fish anyway so Iāll be fine. Iāll aim for a proper Tri next year.
The fix is now live! Sorry for the confusion, we did originally miss one of those āflashā texts. Athletes with this plan need to delete and re-apply it to see those updates.
āInterval Runā is made to distinct it from a ābase runā. Meaning: there will be structured work. This is correct.
