If your plan is in Excel, then you can do it fairly easily it appears.

"Each row below the header row represents an event. See example:
SubjectStart dateStart timeFinal exam05/30/202010:00 AM
So the first column is the workout. 2nd column is the Date, 3rd column I would probably put the AM workouts all at 6am and PM at 5pm, or whatever.
Something like this. Should be pretty simple…if your plan is in Excel.

Subject Start Date Start Time 20mi trainer ride followed by 8mi Steady run 2/22 6:00 AM Off Day 2/23 6:00 AM Masters Swim 3k total 2/23 5:00 PM 6mi easy 2/24 6:00 AM Easy 1hr swim 2/25 6:00 AM Fartlek Run 2/25 5:00 PM

You can export your Trainingpeaks planned activities to google calendar, and it automatically syncs. But that requires a paid subscription.

Thanks - I’m all for being a paid member of training peaks - i was before but the ironman 70.3 plans are another $75+

There are enough free plans online in which training peaks should offer alternatives for free IMO

Yea, the plans on there are pretty expensive. I actually have my own plan in Excel and then manually enter my workouts into TP at the beginning of each week. It then syncs to both my Google calendar and my work Outlook calendar. You don’t need TP to do this obviously, but if you already use it for the other features it is a bonus.

thanks for the suggestions all.

it’s too bad Garmin Connect doesn’t cooperate well in making plans other than using their own built in plans.
