Am I going to die?
Probably not but is a turbo session on the monday after back to back long weekend runs realistic? Geniune question, I don't tri so haven't ever gotten on a turbo with legs tired from running.
You're training 7 days a week most weeks which most training plans wouldn't advise. but again, you've done this before so you know what worked for you in the past. If it was ok then ... -

Be good to see your plan include note of intensity against the sessions and to know is your overall goal Compete or complete?
What will the club sessions give you beyond social? I'd bin off Tues, and do morning and evening runs Weds (eve club) to lead to combined longer time on feet by extending the morning run over time. Might not work for you with other commitments though.
Fwiw Last years double run days plan I followed allowed plenty of rest (often inc. gentle bike commutes) and helped develop my 'keep going' mentality. More of the same this year. Pretty much all done around 'Maff' intensity.

I haven't yet heard confirmation of whether I'm in for the SDW50 yet, but I figure I should start doing some training just in case. So, this schedule is intended to take me from now (Monday 9th) up until then.
Tuesday and Wednesday sessions are club sessions which I enjoy because they are sociable. I want to keep some cycling in there because I'm hoping to do some TTs and maybe some Audax in the summer. I don't know if I'll do any Tris this year but I'm sad about the fact I didn't swim at all last year so I view the swim sessions as optional/gentle recovery swims just to get back in the habit.
I last ran an ultra (TP100) in 2013 (!!GULP!!), I did IMWales in 2015 and have essentially just been riding and running for fun in 2016 so nothing heavy. This will be a pretty big jump in volume so we'll see how things go...
It's just a first draft, but am I doing anything silly? Am I going to die?
