0:00.0	Welcome to episode 436 of That Triathlon Show, the podcast presented by Scientific Triathlon.com.
0:29.6	I'm your host Michael, and on today's episode, I interview Rachel Maney.
0:32.6	Rachel is the National Director of Bike Law, which is a network of independent bike crash lawyers.
0:37.5	And two of the main things that you'll be able to take from this interview is, firstly,
0:42.1	how to minimize the risk of being involved in a crash through safety precautions and
0:45.9	understanding how most crashes happen.
0:48.3	And secondly, what you should do if you or somebody you know is involved in a crash.
0:52.9	And when we're talking about crashes here

1:26.4	to reach reasonable levels
1:27.6	of sodium. And this was a challenge, especially in long races, to keep track of everything.
1:32.7	With precision fuel and hydration products, it's very simple. The gels contain 30 grams or 90 grams
1:38.0	of carbs or 300 grams in the case of the flow gel. It's easier to carry to keep track of
1:43.7	and it's a multiple of the standard of the flow gel. It's easier to carry to keep track of and it's a multiple
1:45.2	of the standard recommendations for cart consumption per hour. So you have the 60 to 90 gram
1:51.1	recommendations and the same goes for the sodium products. It's super simple and this might sound
