I struggle to do well at both at the same time.
My FTP was at an all time high when I'd basically quit running other the odd 5km run to the gym.
I'm now holding the KOM for the run leg of my recent tri. But now my FTP is well down.
I think you need some way of organising the training so that your legs get maximum recovery from running stress. But still get the kms they need on the bike. I've tried recovery rides after a big run. Just hurts my hips.

I'm very fat, and very slow. This is annoying - I have plenty of things to blame this on, but inactivity and icecream are probably the two largest factors.
I can go back to the old training that my coach (I had one many years ago now when I was nearly fast, sometimes) specified, but he was a great cycling coach and I would like to improve both my running and my cycling.
Has anyone got a basic program that addresses both two wheels and trainers?
