Adding event to plan builder

Any one know if/ how to add an event to plan once the calendar has already been filled out ? Cheers Jim

Add it to the Calendar, and you should be prompted to add it to your plan (assuming you use the ā€˜eventsā€™ option and not the ā€˜I donā€™t have eventsā€™ option).

Doesnā€™t work for me eitherā€¦

You need to add a race, not just an event. If you add an event, you canā€™t have Plan Builder recalculate your plan to accommodate your new activity.

Kindaā€¦ but they are using mixed terms that leads to confusion. The Race/Event designation is one and the same, because there is not ā€œEventā€ option to start. And it gets more confusingā€¦

And the next screen after clicking [Race]:

So, they are using both Race and Event, somewhat interchangeably and confusing, IMHO.

This is a good point Chad, I will share this with the design team :+1:.

Yes, I had the same issue due to confusion.

I also noticed that triathlon workouts are only added by Plan Builder when a triathlon is an ā€˜Aā€™ race. If a triathlon is a ā€˜Bā€™ or ā€˜Cā€™ race, no swim\run workouts are added whatsoever. I wonder if thatā€™s intentional.

I have a sprint triathlon in September, and a 3-4 imperial centuries before then. Thatā€™s how it is for me.

I suggest reporting that directly to support@trainerroad.com to get an answer, and maybe flag them to review what sounds like an issue to me.
