It's correct.  Don't look at the total weekly distance.  We 'work back' from peak weak as one of the rules is 10% increase in volume per week for a safe, consistent build...so for an 18 week plan, 600/800/1000 is the first week of swims. If you did the full 28 week plan, it allows for more build as the first week is 450/600/750 - which is exactly in line with the first week of the beginner swim series...plus if we make the swims any shorter, you would be in the pool for 10 minutes..

We also heavily value swim overdistance training especially for sprints.  So your long swim may very well be 2x your race distance during peak week.  I feel this is very important and draws upon many 'first tri' experiences on BT...myself included.

ONE CHANGE YOU CAN DO...change your swim to 500, recalculate the plan.  You won't get as much overdistance, but the first week is then 400/550/650 and peak swim is 950...a few hundred yards over your race swim.

Let me know what you think.



Yeah that totally works. Didn't even think about lowering the distances. Thanks

not sure if this is a repeat but after creating my customized plan with training days ONLY M-F, the "view plan" put training days T-S.

Super update, thanks a lot, it works great! The only thing is: how can I print the schedule including the detailed work out...? It says that it was possible until December 1, but what happens now...? That would make it perfect for me!

Assuming you did import it, it's now in your planned training so you can use the planned blog, week or month view to print.

Let me know if this isn't the case.

This is so totally cool.  I am sure there are bugs but I am having too much fun to find them right now

Thanks for your help...but I'm still having problems viewing my "planned" calendar. It says that I'm viewing my planned calendar on the right side of the screen, but on the left it says actual calendar. This only happens certain times of the day...so I'm not really sure what is going on. Just kind of frustrating because I'm trying to move some stuff around and can't find anyplace that will let me view it. Half of the time I can only view my planned info on the actual vs. planned calendar and then it is just - values because I haven't done it yet. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

This is bizarre.  Can you attach a screenshot of when this occurs in your calendar (shows planned and actual).  When it does this, is the hover data showing your actual or planned workouts?

Can you view your planned blog?

And just to confirm - does this show your planned calendar with all of your runs with Sunday off?
