0:00.0	Today's podcast is brought to you by a new podcast sponsor that I'm so jacked up about
0:05.1	Roka.
0:07.1	After five, six years of Roka being my go-to-wet suit, they are now part of the triathlon
0:14.1	Taryn family.
0:15.0	And fun story about this, how I ended up becoming such a big fan of Roka is I was training for an open water marathon swim.
0:22.7	First one that I did was 27 kilometers and I was training in this old wetsuit.
0:27.8	My shoulders were getting sore.
0:29.7	And at our honeymoon in Kona in 2013, I went up to the Roka booth when they were so small that it was the founders that were working the booth and they had to
0:38.6	share the booth with somebody else. And I told them about this marathon swim and they set me up with a
0:42.9	wetsuit, take it back home. And they had back then what was this revolutionary thing. They now call it
0:49.9	the arms up technology. It was what put Roka on the map. It's the game changing, really flexible
0:56.1	shoulders. They had it then, and it basically turned them from this tiny little wetsuit company
1:01.1	into this giant company that is Roca right now. And they've still got that arms up technology.
1:06.6	And it's still why I use Roca wetsuits. I'm pumped. Full circle.
1:11.5	I'm a Roca fan boy.
1:12.9	Well, there's an amazing, there's a couple good things coming up.
1:16.7	First of all, there's a coupon that they're offering to folks who are listening here to the podcast.
1:21.0	If you go to their website, they have a coupon code, or you use the coupon code, Terran, you'll get $20 off of an order of $100 or more. So that's kind of a big
1:30.2	deal. But bigger than that. Bigger than that. Much bigger. Roca.com slash Taryn. Over $2,000 in
1:39.5	prizes, grand prize, your own Roka wetsuit with that arms up technology, and an entry to the
1:47.3	Ironman race of your choice. We're running that until the end of April 2019, so go check
1:52.8	that out, roca.com slash taren, or use the coupon code Taryn for $20 off an order of $100 or more.
