Let A Coach Tell You To Chill
- Do trust a coach to tell you when to ease off instead of always pushing for more.
- Use their oversight to turn 'must do more' thinking into balanced, consistent training.
Plan, Flex And Prioritise Sleep
- Plan training into your weekly routine and flex sessions when life interferes to keep consistency.
- Prioritise sleep, honest expectation setting with partners, and accept early alarms as part of the process.
Race Simulation In New York City
- Five weeks out, Isabelle rode a 150K race-sim around New York, crossing the George Washington Bridge into New Jersey and back into Manhattan.
