Goals are great to have, but a specific plan to reach your goals is where the rubber meets the road - or trail.

In this podcast Coach Elliott Baring walks you through the three steps to achieve your cycling goals:

1. determine your goals
2. determine the demands of your goals
3. build the training timeline to reach your goals

As a precursor, the nine talented athletes who comprise the Optimize Collective tell us what they are training for, and how they are working with their coach to get there.

Then, Coach Elliott breaks down how you can set your training to achieve your goals, using some examples of two-time Unbound Gravel winner Lauren De Crescenzo, whom he is coaching this year, as well as his own goals, like Belgian Waffle Ride North Carolina and the Leadville Trail 100.
