Welcome to the TriDOT podcast. I am so excited for today's conversation. I am joined by

professional triathlet and coach Elizabeth James and biomechanics expert and coach Jeff Rains.

The three of us will share the biggest things that we have learned traveling to races for

TriDOT and helping athletes to succeed on course.

It turns out you learn a lot by watching other athletes go through the motions of doing a race.

I'm Vanessa, your average triathling with elite level enthusiasm. As always, we'll start with

our warm-up question, settle into our

main set conversation, and then wind things down by having our coaches answer an audience

question on the cool down. Lots of good stuff. Let's get to it. This is the TriDOT podcast,

the triathlon show that brings you world-class coaching with every conversation.

Let's get started with today's warm-up.

Jeff and E.J., for today's warm-up question, what I want to know is at the present time,

what is your favorite go-to nutrition product for racing? And I specifically want to know

about racing because I know a lot of people will train with food or different products and then

practice with race fuel deeper into the session, deeper into the season. It can get pretty

pricey to train with the same thing that you race with. And to be honest, it might get

really boring too. So what is something that you have to have on course while racing? E.J.,

let's start with you. Awesome. Well, Vanessa, it is so great to be back on a podcast recording

with you and Raines. This is just like fun reunion,

sitting down for a cup of coffee here today. For me, this question, my go-to nutrition

product for racing would have to be the precision fuel and hydration flow gel. And this has been

a game changer for me and lifesaver. I mean, all of just even got some sitting right next to him.
