Session-outcome classification

  • Classification: Confirmed completed, minor modification
  • Evidence source: TP MCP server (live query, athlete ID 1575220)
  • Actual vs planned: Duration matched (4:02:46 vs 4:00 planned). IF slightly below plan (0.601 vs 0.65). TSS nearly matched (167.58 vs 171.6). Elevation of 1,686m adds real terrain cost not visible in IF alone.
  • Interpretation: The slightly lower IF across a hilly 4-hour ride is not a concern. Holding planned duration and completing all 5 intervals on the final day in Victoria, after a heavy cumulative week, is the meaningful outcome.

Morning note status

  • Morning plan: absent - no canonical log existed for today due to workspace migration. No morning note was sent via cron. This is a workflow gap from the migration, not a coaching failure.
  • Fallback source: athlete/rolling-7-day.md entry for Apr 24 (not present in that file - the rolling 7-day window starts Apr 25). Used TP planned workout 3693286675 and the broader context from athlete/context/trainingpeaks-coach-planning-review-2026-04-11-to-2026-04-24.md as planning reference.

Cumulative load context

  • Apr 21: 142.59 TSS (3:33 endurance, confirmed)
  • Apr 22: ~30 TSS (1:04 active recovery, confirmed)
  • Apr 23: Unconfirmed from this migration context, planned 4:00 endurance. Prior log shows session was planned and morning plan was sent. No TP query run for Apr 23 in this pass.
  • Apr 24: 167.58 TSS (confirmed today)
  • Weekly load (Apr 21-24, partial): 340+ TSS confirmed from the tracked portion. Total week likely 450-500 TSS if Apr 23 completed as planned. This is a substantial block before tomorrow's 16-hour drive.

Tomorrow stabilization

  • Apr 25 rolling 7-day entry: Drive home, no training. No change needed. Confirm the post-drive Apr 26 easy reset remains as planned (1:15-1:45 easy aerobic).
  • Apr 26 assessment: With the week landing at meaningful load and the drive adding fatigue, Apr 26 should stay at the conservative end of the planned range (1:15-1:30 rather than pushing to 1:45). This is not a significant change to the rolling 7-day philosophy - just a within-range adjustment warranted by the drive-day insertion.

Specialist participation notes

  • Specialist agent sessions unavailable at time of this pass (gateway in read-only mode, sessions_spawn restricted). All specialist synthesis performed by coordinator using coaching judgment.
  • Recovery: synthesis performed by coordinator. Key inputs: substantial cumulative week, drive tomorrow, 2,022 kcal burn today, prior under-fueling pattern flagged in recent nutrition reviews.
  • Nutrition: synthesis performed by coordinator. No today's nutrition logged (no daily log existed). Prior under-fueling pattern carried forward as a real concern for tonight's recovery meal and tomorrow's drive-day eating.
  • Endurance: synthesis performed by coordinator. TP data used directly. Session classification and load interpretation done by coordinator.
  • Strength: not relevant today, no gym session.

Endurance

No specialist-owned endurance input available for this date (specialist agent not available during workspace migration pass). Coordinator-consolidated note:

  • Session completed as planned. 5 x 10 min at 75-85% FTP across a hilly 4:02 ride with 1,686m elevation. IF slightly below plan (0.601 vs 0.65), consistent with terrain-driven variability and appropriate fatigue management in the final session of a heavy week.
  • Week-end load is substantial. Apr 26 reset ride should be kept easy and non-negotiable.

Recovery

No specialist-owned recovery input available for this date (specialist agent not available during workspace migration pass). Coordinator-consolidated note:

  • Recovery priority tonight is high. Cumulative TSS from the tracked portion of this week is 340+ confirmed, with Apr 23 likely adding another 150+ TSS.
  • Tonight's key actions: complete carbohydrate-plus-protein recovery meal immediately, hydrate well, early sleep.
  • Tomorrow is a real fatigue event (16-hour drive). Sitting in a car for that duration suppresses circulation, compresses the spine, and disrupts sleep. Leg stiffness after the drive is expected.
  • Apr 26 readiness watch: if the legs feel heavier than expected after the drive, keep the reset ride at 1:15 easy. If they open up reasonably well by Apr 26, the planned 1:15-1:45 range is appropriate.

Strength

No gym session today. Not relevant.

Nutrition

No nutrition logged today. Canonical daily log did not exist until this pass (workspace migration).

Prior-day carry-forward: the nutrition under-fueling pattern flagged across Apr 22 and Apr 23 reviews is still active. With 2,022 kcal burned today, the post-ride recovery meal is the most important nutrition event of the day and cannot be deferred.

Drive-day note: Apr 25 requires sustained eating at regular intervals. Skipping meals because of car logistics is a real risk for this athlete. First meal after the drive should not be the first real meal of the day.

Nutrition prescription — Apr 24 workout day

Athlete assumptions: 62 kg body mass, 174 cm, age 27

Daily energy target: ~4,150 kcal (floor, not ceiling — Hashimoto's and chronic underfueling history mean erring under is costlier than erring over)

Macro Rate Total Calories
Carbohydrate 9.0 g/kg 558 g 2,232 kcal
Protein 2.0 g/kg 124 g 496 kcal
Fat remainder 158 g 1,422 kcal
Total     4,150 kcal

Timing breakdown

Window Carbs Protein Fat kcal
Pre-ride (2-3h before) 110 g 25 g 22 g ~762
During ride (per hour) 60 g - - ~255
During ride (4h total) 240 g 5 g 5 g ~1,020
Post-ride window (0-2h) 90 g 65 g 15 g ~770
Dinner + evening 118 g 29 g 116 g ~1,600

Pre-ride meal (2.5-3h before ride)

~710 kcal | 95 g carbs | 31 g protein

  • Rolled oats (dry): 75 g
  • Whole milk: 200 mL
  • Banana: 130 g
  • Honey: 10 g
  • Scrambled eggs: 100 g (2 eggs)
  • Black coffee: 240 mL

During ride — 60 g carbs per hour

  • Carb-electrolyte drink (6% CHO): 500 mL (30 g carbs)
  • 1 gel (~40 g): 25 g carbs
  • Half banana or 2 medjool dates: 13-15 g carbs
  • Fluid: 500-750 mL/hr with ~500-700 mg sodium/hr
  • 4-hour total: ~240 g carbs, ~1,020 kcal

Coaching flag: Given documented underfueling pattern, confirm she executed on-bike fueling in hours 3-4 today.

Post-ride recovery (0-2h)

Immediate shake (within 30 min):

  • 40 g whey protein isolate + 130 g banana + 250 mL whole milk
  • ~430 kcal | 44 g carbs | 45 g protein

Light snack (30-90 min after):

  • 200 g Greek yogurt (2%) + 100 g mixed berries + 40 g granola
  • ~340 kcal | 50 g carbs | 25 g protein

Recovery dinner (priority — last night before 16h drive)

~1,243 kcal | 138 g carbs | 65 g protein | 46 g fat

Food Amount kcal
Pasta (refined, dry weight) 120 g 427
Salmon fillet (baked or pan-seared) 200 g 312
Tomato/marinara sauce 100 g 40
Olive oil 25 mL 221
Roasted vegetables (broccoli, zucchini, tomatoes) 250 g 80
Sourdough bread 60 g 163

Salmon rationale: 200 g delivers ~3-4 g EPA/DHA omega-3s — anti-inflammatory for recovery and Hashimoto's autoimmune activity. Use refined pasta tonight (not whole grain) for faster glycogen resynthesis.

Evening snack (30-60 min before sleep)

~465 kcal | 35 g carbs | 33 g protein | 24 g fat

  • Full-fat cottage cheese: 200 g
  • Honey: 15 g
  • Kiwifruit: 100 g
  • Walnuts: 25 g

Casein protein supports overnight repair. Kiwifruit has modest evidence for sleep quality benefit. Walnuts add omega-3 ALA.

Evening summary

**Today's session:**
Tempo ride completed, 4:02, 5 x 10 min at 75-85% FTP, 1,686m of climbing, 167 TSS. Slightly below the planned intensity factor but duration matched and the session landed as a real load day. That is exactly how this week should close.

**Feedback:**
Solid way to finish the Victoria block. Holding the full duration with that much elevation on a tempo day at the end of a heavy week is the meaningful outcome. The slightly lower intensity factor is not a concern. The work is in the legs.

**Recovery:**
Eat a full recovery meal tonight before anything else - aim for 80-120 g carbohydrate and at least 30 g protein. Hydrate well and get to sleep early. Your body needs to absorb today before the drive starts.

**Tomorrow:**
Full day drive home. No training. Stop every 90-120 minutes for a short walk, eat at regular intervals through the day, and keep fluid intake steady. Treat the drive seriously - it counts as a real fatigue event even without a power file.

**Monday reset:**
Easy aerobic ride, 1:15-1:30. After the drive, start at the shorter end and extend only if the legs open up well.

**Monitor:**
How you feel after the drive. If you arrive stiff and heavy, lean toward 1:15 on Monday rather than forcing the longer range.

Post-ride recovery (0-2h) - GF/DF

Immediate shake (within 20 min): ~570 kcal | 95 g carbs | 32 g protein

  • 30 g pea + rice protein blend (Vega Sport, NOW Sports Pea, or Naked Pea - all GF/DF)
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 40 g GF rolled oats
  • 30 g dates (3 medjool)
  • 250 mL oat milk + 250 mL water
  • 10 g cocoa powder, cinnamon, pinch salt

Real meal (60-90 min after): ~830 kcal | 110 g carbs | 45 g protein

  • Cooked jasmine rice: 200 g
  • Grilled chicken thigh: 150 g
  • Roasted sweet potato: 200 g
  • Mixed greens with olive oil and lemon
  • Kiwi + orange

Recovery dinner (priority - last night before 16h drive) - GF/DF

~1,100 kcal | 140 g carbs | 50 g protein | 35 g fat

  • Cooked jasmine rice or GF risotto: 200 g
  • Wild salmon (oven-roasted with olive oil, lemon, sea salt, fresh dill): 180 g

  • GF rice cakes with 30 g almond butter + 20 g honey + sliced banana, OR large baked potato
  • 200 mL warm oat milk with cinnamon

Night snack is non-negotiable: LEA pattern + final-session glycogen debt + tomorrow's poor eating environment = high overnight catabolism risk. Fed sleep supports T4→T3 thyroid conversion.

Travel-day pack list (for tomorrow)

  • 4 hard-boiled eggs
  • 6 GF/DF rice cake packs with almond butter and jam
  • 2 cooked rice + chicken containers (eat by hour 6)
  • 1 kg mixed fruit (apples, bananas, oranges)
  • 200 g GF-certified trail mix
  • 3 L water + 6 electrolyte tabs

Travel-day target: ~2,800-3,200 kcal, ~5 g/kg CHO. Do not allow drift to a rest-day 1,800 kcal pattern.

Cross-contamination reminders

  • Oats must be GF-certified; regular oats are a contamination risk
  • Soy sauce in any travel meal must be tamari
  • Restaurants en route: verify dedicated GF fryer
  • "Dairy-free" labelling does not equal safe - check for casein, whey, lactose specifically
