I haven't looked at the Trainer Road plan too much past the first few weeks, but for the half and full plans, does it ever have you in the saddle much more than 1.5 hours? I'm loosely following the HIM build plan on the low weekly volume. I'm still doing shorter races and weekend rides, so sometimes, I realize I'll have to veer off their schedule some. Just using it as a training supplement at this time. But I've not seen anything super long in the near future. Not too worried as I will still do some weekend riding like I said, but was wondering if the plan took that into account (currently away from my computer that has my T-road account downloaded)
I've only just started with week following their half ironman base mid volume plan. It only has a few rides longer than 1.5 hours. mostly 1 hour rides. My A race this year is a HIM in October so I decided to go through the entire Base-Build-Specialty plans for trainer road. I have couple of sprint tris and an olympic but they'll just fall wherever in my plan. My fitness level is fine for those. In the past, I've usually just done a 12 week focus plan for my HIMs because I usually maintain a decent base year round. This time I figured I'd give a full Base-Build-Specialty plan a good effort and see how that goes. With a lighter race year, it gives me something to focus on.
