      Switching days works OK. Not switching them is better.

      Roll the plans back-to-back if it fits exactly with the timing of your “A” race.

      Lynda,

      Can we expand upon question 1, switching training days?

      You mention that it is best to keep the pattern of 'hard day' then 'rec long ride day'.

      So if we have a race on Sunday would it be best to shift the long recovery ride to Monday? Or just go into the next week without the long easy ride?

      Thanks for your help and a belated congrats on

      It would depend on the priority and duration of the race.

      Low Priority 'C' and a short cross country race. Just a little filler fun race!

      For a C race flip-flop Saturday and Sunday.
