Olympian Haley Smith joins Coach Jonathan to break down how to tell if your training is actually working—from mood and sleep to power trends, fueling, and race execution. Using Haley’s season (Cape Epic, Migration, SBT GRVL) as a case study, we cover a practical year-in-review framework, RED-S/low energy availability lessons, and the mindset tools (journaling, debriefs, “24-hour rule”) that keep progress moving. Perfect for your end-of-season audit.
