Garmin Coach Half Marathon Plan Time Trial 2 weeks in a row?

Hi,

maybe someone here who has done a half-marathon plan with coach amy can help me.
I am on week 6 of 16 and so far it has only been easy + tired runs, which is what i expected.

Today I had a 1.61km/1Mile Time Trial run, after which I expected the plan to adapt to include some kind of speed/hill workouts, but after syncing the run and having the plan update, I have the exact same workouts planned as the week before, including the time trial.

Is this normal? I assumed the time trial would be something that would happen every few weeks to check progress and adapt pace/distances of the other runs and not 2 weeks in a row.

    I have a similar problem. I have three time trials schedule for this week (out of five days of training per week). That’s not right, I already did two of the time trials and the third has replaced my long-run. I’m sick of running them! Did you ever get an answer on the time trial repeats in your training schedule?

    No, not at all.

    What I did is change the settings for the training plan a few times, and at some point it went back to a normal looking week.

    Yeah I’m trying that too but it won’t bring my long run back and all the other workouts are dependant on another 5min best effort time trial. I like my long runs too much to forego it so I think I’ll just do an easy long run Sunday, reschedule the time trial to Tuesday, and then see what the algorithm generates for next week. Should put me back on track. I’ll post again if after then it’s still whacky

    Hi. I'm after 2 time trials and in next week I have 3 time trial. Is this normal?

    In my opinion after 1 time trial plan should adapt paces and runs.

    I think this is some error and waste of time...
