0:00.0	Thanks for tuning into this episode of the Human Performance Outliers podcast with Zach Bitter.
0:09.9	All right, folks, welcome back to another episode of the Human Performance Outliers podcast.
0:14.2	I am your host, Zach Bitter, and today I have a solo episode for you.
0:19.5	So this episode is going to be a bit of a reflection on my 24-hour race recently and just
0:26.4	kind of my view in hindsight of the race and the buildup altogether and more or less
0:33.4	loosely tied into like when is the right time to take an off season or when should you

1:45.9	So we'll talk about that in that episode.
1:50.3	I also touch a little bit on kind of like what I see as like valuable reasons to use a treadmill or some things to look out for with it, which I kind of skewed into that one from
1:56.0	a question-answer standpoint because I thought, you know, the hydration thing is a little
2:00.2	more important this time you're heading into the summer with the heat. Treadmills are likely the hydration thing is a little more important this time
