0:00.0	Welcome to episode 438 of That Traathlon Show, the podcast presented by Scientific Traathlon.com.
0:29.6	I'm your host Michael, and on today's episode, we have Loclan Kieran, back to co-host a Q&A with listener questions.
0:36.8	First of all, thank you everybody for all of the great questions.
0:40.0	I've said it before, but I'll say it again.
0:41.8	I try to produce enough Q&A episodes that I end up answering the vast majority of questions that get sent in.
0:47.8	So please feel free to take this as an open invitation to send in questions at any time.
0:53.7	And they will get answered sooner
0:55.8	or later it might be one two or three Q&A episodes down the line usually I would say
1:00.4	two at most but pretty much all questions end up getting answered eventually and we have a

1:28.9	nothing unnecessary that is just there without providing a benefit but potentially providing
1:35.0	a source of gastric discomfort. They are practical because they are based on increments of 30 grams
1:42.3	of carbs and 500 milligrams of sodium. So if you want to take on 90 grams of carbs per hour, it's super simple. You can take
1:48.4	three times 30 gram gels or one times the 90 gram gel. So similarly, getting the desired amount
1:55.5	of sodium and caffeine is also super simple based on the amounts that they have in their products.
2:00.5	And finally, they are
2:01.4	tasty, not in a very flavorful way. It's in a neutral, mildly sweet way. And I think that for a lot
