In this episode, with fall races right around the corner, we talk all about the taper! And Gale Bernhardt, Olympic coach, helps us find some answers to our burning questions. From the definition of tapering to explanations of what is going on with us, ie why are we so grouchy? Why do we feel so depressed. tired, exhausted, injured? - we try to cover it all here. We also asked her about the concept of “fear based training,” and also get some advice about how to get through this phase of our training plan!
