Who's responsible for success, is it the coach? Or the athlete?

In this episode we dive into this question, how this responsibility is shared, and the expectations of each person in the coach/athlete team.

Because when the coach or athlete get this wrong, it is detrimental.

And specifically how Gerard found this out first hand when he made the biggest mistake of his career on the highest Ironman stage at Kona.

We also cover:
What makes a good coach
What makes a good athlete
How to make your coach happy!

The mistake that professional athletes are STILL making
The training principle that produced a 40 year record
