0:00.0	Today's podcast is brought to you by for the first time, two sponsors. We are literally growing by
0:07.7	dozens of dollars a day. Amazing. This is fantastic. And we should preface these sponsorship bits by saying
0:14.7	that we only accept sponsors on the podcast if they have a product that we really support, believe in, and or use if possible.
0:23.7	Unfortunately, we can't use the first sponsor's product, Health IQ, because they are U.S. life insurance and we are Canadians.
0:32.4	But it's still amazing because it's something that you used to rant and rave about all the time when you were
0:38.2	an investment advisor, the fact that healthy people paid more for life insurance than unhealthy
0:42.7	people, but no more.
0:44.0	Yes, health IQ has set up their company in such a way that triathletes, swimmers, cyclists,
0:50.3	runners, vegans, people who take care of themselves can get as much as a 25% savings on their
0:56.6	life insurance, which really just makes sense. That's the way that it should be. Right. Yes,

1:13.5	If you want to learn more about health IQ, go to health IQ.com forward slash triathlon Terran.

1:25.3	going to the website on your own, use the code triathlon
1:28.2	Terran. It's not going to save you any money because health IQ is already.
1:32.3	Already saving you the money. Ideally saving you money. But let's health IQ know that you came from us
1:37.4	and helps support the show. And our other sponsor, welcome to the show for Four Sigmaic and their mushroom coffees slash drinks.
1:46.7	That's right. This is one that I actually use. I started using For Sigmaicmatic in early 2017 because I was finding that just the three cups of coffee that I have a day was enough to kind of get me addicted.
1:57.9	Like I was feeling like I craved it even though I didn't really want it.
2:01.2	And it didn't taste good. And yeah, by the end of it, like you get that acid feeling and an energy
2:06.5	crash at the end of the day. Not with foursigmatic. They only have 50 milligrams of caffeine,
