Unfortunately in November Life got in the way. I was essentially not able to train.

My question now:

Should I just continue with the plan as is (week 5 of OS) or should we readjust the macro plan? If so, how.

Many thanks!

Gunnar

    Yeah, I'm right there with you. November was a bust for me as well . Looking at your life schedule for December, would you be able to restart the OS this week and train consistently through the month, or would it be better to restart the OS on Jan 5 and do a Run Focus block this month instead?

    Either of the two would work. My run has become very weak - I used to run 10K at 7:45 tempo, 7:15 race, but now I am down to like 9:30 miles!

    I have my bike set up, so I could do either. whatever you think is best!

    Regards

    I am sorry - can we modify plan to recognize December will be bad too so I should start earnest program in Jan
    (for context my house burnt down, so dealing w contractors, insurance and so on)

    can you modify my season plan and tell me what to upload?

    Ugg. Sorry to hear about your house! That's crazy! Let's do this:

    • This week load up the PreSeason training plan, setting it to end on 1/11
    • Then on 1/5, load up the OutSeason training plan to end on 4/12
    • Then around the middle / end of January, when you've settled in, please resubmit for me your race schedule for 2015, via the Triathlon Season RoadMap page, and I'll rework your TSR to reflect your new reality.

    All that said, #1 priority is taking care of the much more important admin stuff in your life right now. Can't imagine what that's like...
