Zwift 4 Horsemen route. Every time you're going uphill, do tempo wattage in 10-minute chunks with 5 mins of recovery watts in between the chunks. Lower Z2 everywhere else. Depending on your fitness you may not finish the full route in 3 hours.

Unrelated,

Last night's ride was the first organized training ride in about 3 weeks. The first sweet spot interval was unpleasant and left me wondering if I forgot to readjust my FTP in TrainingPeaks. The second was easier and the third was just cruise control while I was playing on my phone. I had to catch myself a few times because I was 15-20W higher than I should have been. Crazy how fast the body remembers.
