Hi Carolyn Thank you so much for this episode on Master's track. Your guests answered a lot of questions and I really enjoyed listening to their experience and experiences.

P.S. loved your episode with you and Johnny recapping your Chicago experience and training. I never considered candy before for a carb load, that my friend was epic! Janet
