0:00.0	Hey, what's up everybody and welcome back to that traathlon show, the podcast presented by
0:06.3	ScientificTraflon.com. I'm my host Michael and this episode is Q&A number 105.
0:12.6	Before we get into today's questions, big thanks to our sponsors. First, we have precision hydration
0:17.9	that you can find on precision hydration.com.
0:25.1	And then they make electrolyte products that you can match to how you sweat and how much sodium you lose in your sweat in particular.
