0:00.0	What's up, fellas? Welcome back to Convas River Coal Brew with me, your host, Emma Abrahamson.
0:05.4	Today, we have a fun new guest on the podcast, Emily Cole. She's a runner at Duke University.

0:15.7	She has almost 200 gay followers on there, sharing her experience as a student athlete.
0:20.4	She also has almost 100k on Instagram and super exciting in October. She's coming out with a book.
0:26.4	It's called The Players Plate. It talks all about nutrition and a bunch of different
