0:00.0	The Triathlon Show, 373.
0:05.1	Hey, what's up, everybody, and welcome back to another episode on that triathlon show, the podcast presented by scientific triathlon.com.
0:26.4	I'm our host Michael and on today's episode, I interview coach Frank Jacobsen.
0:29.9	Frank has been on the podcast before several times actually, so you probably know him.
0:34.3	He has worked with many athletes of absolute world class in long-distance triathlon,

1:52.5	for your carbohydrate, sodium and fluid intake. And you can also book a free 20-minute
1:56.7	video consultation to chat through your plan with their athlete support team.
2:00.5	As a salty sweater myself, their highly concentrated electrolytes are super important to me
