Suggested Daily Run-Sceduled off day

I wish there was a way to tell the Watch that I will never run on Friday so don’t schedule anything for that day. Also I wish it would adapt a little better to skipped workouts. I have missed my last 2 Saturday long runs but it just keeps adding time to my Suggested LR

  • I completely agree.  I've used the Garmin Coach for my race training and like how you can tell it what days you want to run and which day you prefer your long rrun.  They need to incorporate that functionality into the suggested run....  And while they are at it, some cross-training too.

  • I know this isn’t a solution, but can you reschedule workouts like you can with Garmin coach? That way, at the start of the week, you can just shuffle things around as needed.

  • For me it never changed throughout the day either. When I skip a workout though it sometimes changes for the next day or status stuck for even a week unless I finish that exercise. I guess it depends on whether you have a shortage of some kind (and then it'll keep telling you to complete the kind of workout that you're missing the most) or not (and then the suggestions are made depending on what training load you have. I guess it can't suggest you a tough workout when you're almost on the top of your optimal training load.

    I've been wondering though whether it matters what time of the day I check the suggestion for today. I mean I sometimes check it right after midnight, so that I know how to prepare for running after work that day, but it's the suggestion then the same as it would be e.g. in the morning? Because at midnight, sometimes before I even go to sleep, I suppose it can say that it suggests a tempo run, but when I don't have to plan anything and I check the recommendation right before going out for my run in the morning, it sometimes says that I should do a recovery or something easy due to "poor sleep last night". At midnight it doesn't know whether I'll recover well during the night, so how can it suggest a workout without that knowledge?
