To sync workout or not

Training

I have Lismore on my calendar for Saturday and am wanting to do the workout outside.

There is a local climb that should be roughly the same duration as the intervals of 12 min over/unders for me. Totally overthinking it with the FTP prediction model and seeing posts about outdoor workouts being more impactful on that.

Any advice on whether to sync the workout knowing the timing durations won’t exactly line up or just ride zone 2 there/back, do the 3 intervals riding around threshold without syncing the workout? For example, it will take me slightly longer or slightly shorter to get there/back riding zone 2 and the climb for the intervals may end up being slightly under or slightly over 12 minutes. I want to complete the full climb each time, even if it is a little over 12 min. The road comes to an end so if it is under 12, I won’t have any extra road to go a little longer. Haven’t been there in awhile so not sure which side of the 12 min I will land on yet, it will be close based on previous efforts I can assume. I know I can pause/restart intervals from the wahoo but just want to get the proper credit for the ride either way synced or not.

If you’re going to ride those hills hard regardless of how long it’s going to take you, then I wouldn’t bring the workout along or match your activity to the workout once it syncs to TR.

It’s really only good to do that if you’re going to follow the structure of the workout closely.

Regardless, have fun on your ride! :man_biking:
