Joined on this episode by none other than Chris Gilpin! We talk about a lot of different topics and the most important one is of course training! We discuss the history of training from his perspective and how we have arrived at the place where we are. The things we are getting right as well as what we could be doing better. The incident that changed his perspective on training.... and of course the best laid plans of me and the guest are always waylaid by those beautiful questions from the audience. It was a great Scrap. Enjoy!
