If I've got the date right as 8/31, then yes moving it from Sat to Fri should be fine. It's not a fatigue inducer anymore as you've shifted into taper mode.
You've got the date right! Thanks Billy!!

@DopeyBadger Billy, can you handle one more question? I see in the mileage column some red and green. I didn't see this on my last plan, is this something of note for me? Or is it for your reference later?
Thanks! I was hoping I wasn't missing something I should be doing! Looking forward to my first ever 30+ miles week!!!It's for me. It's a new spreadsheet design and a few of these new workouts are auto calculated. But they have more than three different paces which means the calculation to determine total distance is different. So it's a double check for me to make sure the mileage is correct.
For some reason I'm not syncing with Strava…. ugh. I may have to go thru and reconnect Garmin. Not sure what's going on, but I've had problems the last couple runs.
They were having issues on Sunday, but per the Strava Status website everything looks to be back in order. You could always manually upload the files if you wanted to.
Sounds like even with the highest training week yet, you're still feeling overall pretty good. That's a good sign. Just be wary to stick to the schedule and try not to "do more" as that's a common pitfall after a week you just had.
There are times when I have a scheduled RI pace (known as Holds), but you don't have any of those this time around. Sometimes I have people hold LR, M Tempo, or HM Tempo in between certain segment sets of intervals. Like this one (a Valley Hold workout):
1 mile WU + 3 sets of (1 min @ I w/ 30 sec RI + 2 min @ CV w/ 30 sec RI + 3 min @ HMT w/ 30 sec RI + 2 min @ CV w/ 30 sec RI + 1 min @ I + 12 min @ LR) + 1 mile CD
Instead of a RI at the end, this one has a 12 min LR hold.
I know that the EA and EB runs are necessary for fatigue prevention and I do all of them because I enjoy the running. But I really look forward to the crescendo, block, fast finish and the other variety of runs! It makes the training interesting and gives me little mini goals every week!!
