This is the second episode in a monthly series we are calling the “Coaching Call”.
For context - In April, I will be lining up for the Canyons 100k. Ryan Ghelfi, the Head Coach at Trails and Tarmac, is going to help me prepare. We decided to take it a step further by working in total transparency. Our calls will be recorded and the training log will be viewable 24/7 for you to analyze. Be sure to listen to our first episode in this series, if you haven't already.
In this conversation, we recap the first month of our athlete-coach relationship and talk specifically about goal setting, training partners, and what we are doing to prepare for the demands of the course. Towards the end of the conversation, we also dive into some coaching industry-specific topics like athlete load and what it would look like to coach a co-located trail team.
