Over the last 12 months I've also had the opportunity to be a leadout for the two fastest sprinters in the world right now, Charlotte Kool and Lorena Wiebes.
With this comes quite a bit of pressure, but if executed well, a lot of success.
It's a role that demands fearlessness, communication and in a lot of cases, patience, and one which I enjoy immensely. A fundamental part of a good leadout is knowledge of the course and timing your effort as a team-focusing on the key moments and choosing when to invest and when to save.
No two sprints are the same and no two sprinters are the same, so a crucial part of being a leadout is knowing your sprinters' qualities and what they want in a particular finish.
