Mary R's weekly ride schedule

Hi Coach Patrick,

My LBS has an indoor ride every Wednesday night for 10 weeks. The last few weeks I have shifted my Tuesday, then Thursday ride and did the run on Wednesday. Should I continue to do this and then do the run on Thursday? I can scan the workouts so that you can take a look, they are 90 minutes and we do sprints, some 'hill' work and standing climb adding 2 minutes every week (so this week it will be 10 minute standing climb).

    @Mary, that's fine. I say keep tuesday ride, do your Wed ride and then the run on Thursday. If your run really starts to suffer, maybe we alternate -- one week you do what I suggested, the next week you run on Tuesday first, then do your Wed LBS ride and another ride on Thursday. image Way to make it work!!!

    Excellent Coach Patrick,

    That's how I worked it this week. I am intimidated by the run numbers...but once I get started, I am able to run the Z4 pace for the distances as laid out in the plan. Then, I finish out the hour in Z2.  If anyone had ever told me that I could run these numbers, I would have laughed and here I am doing it. Simply amazing.

    Thanks
