Enable Markdown rendering in Workout descriptions
Hi TrainingPeaks team,
I'm a triathlon coach and write my sessions directly in the workout description field. This field currently only supports plain text, which makes structured sessions hard to read — particularly for athletes in the mobile app.
Request: Markdown support in the workout description (headings, bold/italic, bullet and numbered lists, links) plus a preview of the rendered text before saving. The Jira description editor is a good reference — formatted editing, a raw/Markdown view, and a preview of the final result.
Example of what I'd like to write today:
Warm-up
- 10 min easy, Z1-Z2
- 3x 20s strides
Main set
1. 4x 6 min @ threshold, 2 min jog recovery
2. Hold pace, don't start too fast
Cool-down
- 10 min easy
Right now this comes out as an unformatted block of text.
Benefit: clearer session structure, better readability on mobile, fewer misread workouts.
Now I see, that for this comment editor already supports markdown syntax :blush:
Thanks for considering it.
Best regards,
Michael
