Missed my last long run
Racing IRONMAN TX on May 18th. I was traveling for work all this past week. I only got an hour run and hour trainer ride in during the week and then hit my Saturday and Sunday workouts this weekend. I missed my last long run on Thursday and really need another one as I feel I haven't ran as much or been as strong on my runs as I need to be. I was actually planning on pushing last Thursdays to 3 hours (in Z1) just to get 19-20 miles under my belt. The workout was originally set for 150 minutes. So question, I have my last race prep ride this coming Saturday, is there anyway I can hit a long run during this week and not risk messing that up? Should I just lengthen my Thursday run this week, even though I'm just 3 weeks out?
Not sure if that made sense.

Thanks. Yeah I ran 20 miles this morning, I think it was more of a mental milestone than anything. I'll do the interval run work Thursday AM and I'll move my Wednesday trainer ride to Thursday PM as well so my legs get a full day of rest. Tomorrow I'll just be swimming, morning swim class which is all drills and technique and then I'll do a longer/slow swim Wednesday night. Friday will be a AM Run and PM Swim and then Saturday is my final 112 mile race prep with brick run....not the ideal final training week, but I think it works? Ready for the race already.
