Every year we like to reflect on what happened and pick out our top lessons and learnings of what we’ve taken this year.

Each new year brings with it a new set of challenges and triumphs, but mostly for us it presents another year of evidence as to what is working and what is not working with athletes.

So this is one of our favourite episodes to do as we get to really highlight the biggest and best lessons of the year that you can take to help you in 2022.

This is our final episode for the year, we’ll be taking a few weeks off the podcast before bringing you bigger and better episodes again next year.

From all of us at TriVelo, thank you for being a part of our community and for being a valued listener!
