Wendy Arias 2017 Official Coach Thread
Here's your personal Coach Thread, as promised. This is where you'll return to post all your "coach" questions as responses; I'll see them and reply. This first post is here to guide you through your first year on EN, so you can always come back here.
As you'll see in this forum, I handle all manner of edits and changes. So post away, know that I reply here usually M/W/F each week.

Coach Notes
With only a short time left until your race, it's critical we get you on plan to ensure your bike rides are sufficient and your nutrition / pacing are on point. Getting ready to race is equal parts mental and physical, and while your training is ALMOST all said and done, there's always time to get smarter.
