I’ve already registered my interest in Duathlon plans but, for what it’s worth, until Wahoo sort it so the Systm running workouts push to my Garmin watch, it’s a no from me anyway.
For now, I’m doing a Systm bike training/yoga/strength plan and one of the Garmin Connect running plans alongside it. I tend to do my running workouts in the mornings with the bike ones after work on the trainer and so far it’s working pretty well.
Do you have a guesstimate on when we can expect to see this? I’m considering just using a stryd run training plan so I don’t have to keep on converting from rTP/RPE to power. Are we talking first half-year or by the end of this year? Will it be available for beta testers?
The plans themselves will be in the app by early spring. Unfortunately, I don’t believe we’ll be able to push run workouts to any devices until later in the year.
Can we get an update on the status of the Duathlon plans, please?
My mid-June off-road race is rapidly approaching. Thanks.
Great timing on this question! You should see them in the app early next week.
We waited a bit longer to ensure we could integrate the new running-specific yoga and strength sessions we’ve recently released.
On a different note, it might be worth starting a post/thread on this forum for users who have an equal (or greater) focus on running. We are working towards improving the running experience on both the Rival Watch and SYSTM, so real user wants/needs/suggestions on that would be super helpful.
You should now see a ‘Duathlon’ branch under Multisport Plans.
Happy training!
Yay! Thanks, @Coach.Mac.C !
Thanks @Coach.Mac.C this is much appreciated 
Yayyayyay!!! Thanks!
All accolades should be directed at @Coach.Suzie.S for making this happen! I am just the messenger on this one!
Thanks @Coach.Suzie.S ! 
I did the running version of revolver on my 20+ year old treadmill this morning. It would be great to have a broad selection of running videos like that with different focuses. If running in SYSTM evolved into more similar to what we have for the bike I would consider getting a “smart” treadmill. For now, I would be happy with a bunch of different SUF type running workouts (there are only 3 now).
Great!
Thanks @Coach.Suzie.S
This is one of the many things I like about this APP: you really listen to us !
I will try one of the programs right after my Mountain Fondo - Pyrenees =)
My running will probably be at a low, but what the heck
I often use the cycling videos as workouts. Just use RPE. My 2 favourites are - there is no try and half is easy!
Thanks. I will give this a try.
Ooh I missed this. Awesome.
Thanks guys.
We are trying to expand the running content. It’s just taking some time and patience as our app dev resources are only capable of doing so much, but in due time…
The duathlon plans are released. But i dont really know how to apply them.
Some feedback after my first week of doing Duathlon Sprint Distance- Season Prep- High Volume 2:1; it feels like the program is either wrongly described, or is ramping up the running portion much too quickly, and will likely lead to injury if not modified.
For context, I’m a generally a fairly active runner (10k-1/2 marathon), but so far this year I’ve focused on cycling and have only been doing 2x 30-45min runs per week. Based on that I picked Sprint Season Prep, since the description is “Best for athletes whose average weekly training volume has been at least 45 minutes of running”. I just completed week one, where the run portion included 230 minutes of running, with the longest session being 75 minutes long- far longer than the 45 minutes indicated in the description. Most running programs add a maximum of 10% more time/distance per week, so a 67-500% increase in week one is clearly far too much.
Beyond the massive difference in the amount of running compared to the description, I also wonder about why the durations are that long for a Sprint duathlon which max out at 7.5k? There are multiple weeks with 2 hour run sessions, which seem like complete overkill for the Sprint distance. Any coaches able to comment?
@JensH I really appreciate you bringing this to our attention. I have taken a look and I will pass this along for a closer review. In the meantime…
I suggest you look at our Cyclocross Plans which can be found under- Cycling- Event Prep- Dirt/Gravel- Cyclocross. Continue with your 2 x 45 minute runs per week. This would be extending the durations of the runs within the Cyclocross Plan. Where you see Openers/ Primers due to an Optional Cyclocross race the following day, this is where I recommend you add in an additional run, if required and complete the optional workout listed on the CX Race Day. During Recovery weeks cap your runs at 30 minutes.
If you choose to continue with the current plan, only complete 1 run at Z4/Sub Threshold or above intensity per week with no more than 120 minutes of running for the week. This volume will need to be cut in half during Recovery weeks.
Thank you once again!
