First of all, don't stress. We're still a long way from race day. That said, the closer we get, the longer the workouts will get. If the flow of the schedule listed in TrainingPeaks is too challenging, then we need to figure out an order that works so training becomes a routine part of the day.
Life happens, so if you need to swap days, that's okay. You should bike and run on different days unless there is a brick day. Your legs need time to recover to get the most quality out of your workouts. Over time, fatigue will set in and increase your risk for injuries.
On days you have two workouts scheduled and can only do one, pick the one that is easier to complete based on other factors such as work and home. Then, if you run into a similar issue on the next two-a-day, do the sport you didn't do the last time. So, for example, if on Tuesday you can't do both the swim and the run and can only do the run, then on Thursday if you can't do them both, do the swim.
Each week has an aerobic session, a speed/power session and a strength session. In order of priority, the aerobic and strength/power session are the two you want to make sure you get in. If you need to flip days on the calendar, then go for it. Do what works best for you.
When all else fails, contact me and let me know what the challenge is and we can figure out the best workout solution that day.
