| 0:00.0 | Hey, what's up everybody and welcome back to that traflon show, the podcast presented by |
| 0:06.2 | Scientific Traathlon.com. I'm our host Michael and this episode is Q&A number 54. And this one is a special. |
| 0:14.3 | We're going to take questions related to the interview that I did in episode 198 with Dr. Jan Olgrecht because that episode really |
| 0:24.6 | generated a lot of questions and comments so I want to take the time to respond to those today. |
| 0:31.3 | Before we get into that, big thanks to our sponsors. First, we have precision hydration. |
| 0:36.6 | They recently published a great blog post that is very timely with Kona coming up in a little more than a week, the Iron Man World Championships. |
| 0:45.4 | And that blog post is called How Humidity affects your hydration, endurance and performance. |

| 1:57.0 | electrolyte products for free you can check them out on Precisionhirtation.com and use the promo code |
| 2:02.5 | that Traflon Show, all on word, all caps. And big thanks to Roka that you can find on roca.com. |
| 2:10.5 | One of the major benefits of using Roka wetsuits and trisuits, and in particular using them together, |
| 2:17.3 | is that both wetsuits and tithuits and in particular using them together is that both wetsuits and trisuits |
