Welcome to the Triathlon Taryn podcast. This is very exciting. I get to start the show. Normally you start the show.

I don't like this. It's like I'm handing over the wheel. Give me my remote back. How's your day been?

You know, you've been there. You've been there every day since March. That's true. We haven't been away from each other.

So we've got a great guest today, Angela Naith, Canadian triathlete and fellow sufferer of Lyme disease.
