60 minutes easy alternating every 10 minutes from big ring to small.
45 minutes easy running.
30 minutes nonstop at RPE 5. This should be a hard effort but only hard enough where you can maintain the pace for the whole 30 minutes.
Reverse tri order, back to back if you can schedule it...

75 minutes mostly even paced ride. Do some 60 second accelarations (same as running strides) every 8 minutes, settle back into RPE 3 otherwise.
Speed day
wu: 100swim, 100 pull, 100 kick, 100 swim
main: 8 x 100 EBEH (each 100 = 25Easy, 25Build, 25Easy, 25 Hard)
cd: 3 x 50, each slower than last
This week's focus is the run. Be careful to stretch well after all sessions and warm up and down competely--we don't want any injuries to creep up.
Also the 2 intense workouts this week: the run session on Tuesday and the bike session on Friday.
If you currently are having any problems with run injuries, eliminate sessions completely or reduce the time of some sessions and reduce efforts of all to RPE 2-3.
Next week is a big bike week...this week get any maintenance issues out of the way and also schedule an aero position fitting at your local shop if you have never had one.

30min aerobic test. For those of you using heart monitors, here's a way to roughly determine your lactate threshold for running.
Do a 30min time trial and record your average HR over the last 20minutes. For future runs, this heart rate should match about your perceived effort of RPE7. This pace will also change depending on your fitness level.
Speed day
wu: 200 swim, 200kick, 200pull
main: 16 x 50, descend 1-4, 5-8, 9-12, 13-16
cd: 200 easy
