Hi Eric and Paula, I stopped at the van to say hi, and you guys were great and friendly even though you were in business mode. It was a real pleasure meeting you. I wish you all the best!!!
Paula, quit being down on yourself, you had a great race in a great field! Also, this is probably one of your best vlogs.
Two things: first, this was a GREAT video. Second, Nick is GOOD! Dude can play AND sing, really really well!
Keep your heads up, Paula and Eric! You're awesome and an amazing inspiration to many of us "ordinary" triathletes. Much love and all the best, stay awesome 😄💪
This is one of my favorite videos on this channel. Maybe the great acoustic music is what contributed to me liking it more. I love your channel guys.
That's the beauty of triathlon, it's always a struggle and making it through the struggle is what brings you joy! Keep your heads up!
So true!
For me, the races i was the most proud of was when all went wrong and i somehow did it.
Like my first long distance race where i had terrible stomach issues on the bike (probably caused by heat and non optimal neutrition) and could not eat stuff anymore after km 90.
I somehow finished the bike and then the marathon with some Coke (no idea how i managed it) and was super sad about my time and how brutal that race felt.
After a few days i was more proud than with my agegroup wins over shorter distance.
I think this is the best video yet. So real, honest, vulnerable & relatable. And honestly, inspirational.
Also, great music! Love the chill, introspective vibe. Nicely done Nick!
Hi Eric and Paula! I just found your UA-cam channel and you guys have no idea what a blessing it’s been to have found you guys and watching this vlog. I’m a very amateur triathlete who is doing their 1st 70.3 at Steelhead in just about 6 weeks. I’m mediocre in all 3 sports and looking to complete without receiving a DNF. Thanks so much for sharing your TRI life.
I raced St. George a few years ago and found the scenery beautiful. My family and I are Native American and often got the "cold shoulder" while in town. We decided not to go back and that is unfortunate because the race course is wonderful.
I have adopted family and my best friend is native. We love St george. Please go back. If you ever get or think you are getting treated differently kill them with enthusiasm and kindness. It truly is the only superpower against prejudice. Avoidance, anger, marches, etc do nothing. Smile love those around you, treat everyone with joy and happiness it will conquest the world. And that isn’t a bubble answer it’s the truth. I’ve done it myself
@@fasterthanyou7605 thank you and I agree.
The fact that you guys still managed this vlog during a stressful and hectic week is amazing! You guys are awesome at what you do regardless of how the day panned out!
The end of this edit gave me goosebumps. Thanks for keeping it raw.
It’s 6.30am in Australia, I just woke up and grabbed my phone to see if you dropped a video, YES. Last week just wasn’t the same, glad you’re back. As always amazing content, thank you to you both, you’re both bloody amazing.
Great job to both of you! Getting me through the last long bike before Tulsa! Love this edit!
Look forward to this every week! Thanks for the rad content!
Videography is soooo goood .. love the way you film something as simple as walking through a parking lot and making it look rich. Well done!
You guys keep killing it! Amazing video and great race Paula! Eric, you’ll have the best race day very soon, just gotta keep working hard!
Inspiring! Thanks for doing what u do! 🇨🇦
This was one of my favorites so far! And Nick is so talented
Thanks for sharing your journey! Really enjoy following along.
Thanks for sharing and letting see behind the curtain even though it wasn't the best week. Love watching you two every week and can't wait to see you keep pushing onto the next challenge.
Very cool video! Enjoyed seeing the train up and time you guy put into into it! Keep it up!
Love the positivity - maybe my fave video to date. We’re going to have to go to st George soon!
Glad you had some luck finding good coffee near-ish St. George. As a Utahan, I was wondering if that would be a challenge. I looked forward to this video all week and it didn’t disappoint. You two are so real and I love it. Race on!!
💖 you both!!!! You made my week. Have a AWESOME WEEK!!!!! BE SAFE.
You make amazing videos. The acoustic guitar montage scene was brilliantly done. We are so lucky to have such clean footage and perspective
loved the video great stuff guys, good luck in x terra and keep being awesome
This was so worth the wait, I loved the vlog. Congrats on both of your races anyway, sometimes the wisest choice isn't the easiest. Much love from Switzerland
Loved the episode. Such an enjoyable variety of candid/daily shots, and it was neat to hear your brief recaps of the race. The live soundtrack was cool, too, thanks, Nick. Keep it up!
Wow so great emotional talk ! Great video as always!!
wow! thanks for your honesty :D sending you kuddos for another great video
You both are awesome keep doing you and know you are contributing so much to the sport!
Loved this video. Love you both. Music was fantastic!
Love the candid recap and as always love your content!! I was so happy I got to see Paula cross the finish line! I am such a huge fan 😍🏊🏻♀️🚴🏻♀️🏃♀️
You guys are still some of my favorite folks, better days down the road for sure!
this vlog makes total sense awesome! nice music too. cant wait to see Eric back in full form and winning races.
Thanks for the vid as always! St. George is freaking gorgeous.
so down-to-earth, love it
Have always loved your honesty. I’m looking forward to the day I get to say hello. We on the east coast love you guys!!! Finally getting our races coming in a month..
Big thanks! Best 15min of my sunday!😁
Thanks Paula and Eric! You guys are the best, thanks for sharing. It means a lot the triathlon community that you share your experience being at the pro level. You guys are amazing athletes, I know it was an “off” race for both of you but always an inspiration ❤️
Stunning video and you guys are so positive for the sport. Love it. Thank you
Nice video! Good luck this race season. Eric stay positive , the next race is coming soon so have a short memory and go forward.
Thanks for sharing your race recap. I can only imagine what its like as Pro to have your race not go as planned. St.George was definitely a magical place that challenges you at all levels. I left knowing my future finish there is possible and I’ll be back to met that challenge! I hope it provided you with motivation for your upcoming XTerra race.
Well, it was worth the wait!!!! great video as always!. Hope you had fun at the Xterra Eric.... not too much time to waste being down (you are living THE life! and you have a great support in Paula and of course this community).
Thank you for this video, and nice job out there! Beautiful shots, was in St. George back in Oct and I'm missing the red rocks all over again!
Great video - thanks for sharing the highs and the lows. You are both such impressive athletes and people. And loved Nick's music!
Stunning footage. Thank you.
"That's how we roll." I like how the two of you roll! Always inspired by your vlogs. The content is fantastic. Drone shots. So very cool. But what really gets me is the authenticity of your lives. That's where you two truly shine.
This was such a great look at what “for the love of triathlon” really means to you both. Thank you
love you guys! two transition race weekend always hectic, we all had the same experience with that! I agree, the coffee scene in STG is fair ;-)
I always try to explain to my non-tri friends how crazy race week is. Not a vacation even though we might use vacation time! Great stuff, thank you and stay safe! 😺🤙🏽
Bravo to you both. Paula you're up there with the best. The next one could be the one ``again``. And bravo Eric for stopping, it takes a lot of humility. Next time man. Sorry for the writing not my forte. Salut!🐸
Great Job! Some times things don't go as we plan, but those who overcome and adapt will become stronger!! I am glad that you posted this video Proves that you are Human!!!
You guys could both never finish another race again and I would still watch your videos, so fun and inspiring! Thanks guys!
Great video! We loved watching you both race in St. George!
Thanks! Always a highlight of our year to come out 🙌
You two are THE best. Best vlogs, amazing humans, keep being you.
Congrats Paula! Great result 👍
So missed you guys last week, but racing takes center stage, especially if it is how you earn your hard wages. Great video as always. Racing is always hard, no matter whether your a pro near the front and the prize money or you're the average age-grouper making up the numbers. Great effort. As age groupers always have to say onwards to the next race. Some days it's your days, others days are not!. Just keep working, and all will come around again. Stay safe, see you next week, much love from the UK.
One of your best videos yet. Really excited for next week’s XTERRA video. Thanks for the inspiration!
Great video as usual. Enjoyed your music man and like the way you make each video a bit different. Hang in there Eric you have a lot of folks pulling for you and 4th is spectacular Paula.
Have an epic race today at XTerra Eric 🙌 Awesome edit guys loved the soundtracks , it’s a big yes 👍 from me for the hologram truckers 🌟
I love how you not only give great content about both of you as Triathletes but also bring attention tonight other stuff like the small coffee roasters. Letting a friend perform a song or using music from a different group here or there. You are both kind of the good social conscience of triathlon. 100% good positive energy from you. 👍👍👍
Hey Eric and Paula, great vlog, terrible race. Kidding, tough race. Sorry for the long post, but if either of you go to utube and go to imterribee vlog. A utuber filmed parts of the race and if you go to the time frame of about 30:30, you can catch Eric heading out with the pack. For Paula, go to about 33:40 or so, the utuber has a great view and 4 mins. of Paula and the Viper(Daniela Ryf) transitioning. Intense! Good luck at the Xterra race Eric. I did one a long time ago and had a lot of fun! Bring the noise!
Thanks for sharing your journey with us, always inspiring & amazing 🤩
Very interesting to hear your thoughts on your race.
Beautiful scenery 🌿
Had a lot of fun watching this, thanks! Great insights and pre-race vibes. BTW: what a great rendition of the good old Colin Hay song by your friend Nick …!
Glad you enjoyed it! Nick + guitar can sooth any pre-race nerves 👍
No matter how you two guys are feeling right now, for me you still being the best couple @ Tri... missed U last week cause'I can wait to see every chapter and go watching over and over again.. You keep me going...Greetings from Colombia...
Hey!
Just wanted to say beautiful video. Thank you both for being an inspiration for me and my fiancé. I’m an aspiring professional ultrarunner in the infancy of my journey. You inspire to continue to show up and do my best no matter what is happening. My fiancé and I also bought a bus that one day we’ll convert to our home- inspired by you both traveling in your van! We’re hoping to travel and find community around the US.
Thanks for everything you are doing. Peace. Chris
Great work ya'll! Thanks for the great video
Love how you support each other‼️❤️. Great background music 🎶
Cheer up Eric, u a pro triathlete best job ever and you and Paula living that life that blessed life. You guys motivate us keep us going so url both winners
New Sunday tradition. Watch your video with a strong cup of coffee, then start the day. Family bike ride next! Well done! 🇨🇦 🇺🇸
Was too nervous to come say hi at the lake the day before the race, but just to have caught a glimpse of you two made my weekend!!! Look forward to seeing you again someday, maybe I will even work up the courage to come say hi. Also the Trucker hats rock.
Amazing vid again. Editing and tunes were sublime #fans4life
Really enjoyed Nick's singing and guitar playing! He is quite good!
Losing a battle doesn’t mean losing the war. Thank you for being so authentic and showing us your vulnerability. You are incredible athletes and so inspiring!!!
PS Yes for the metallic trucker hat and more colors for the “THAT TRIATHLON LIFE” crew
Thank you, so much! For the video
Loved the recap. Still looking forward to that whole crane lifting a pool over the house story.
Love all your TTH stuff and amazing race and hats off to the honestly, we all appreciate the highs and lows. 🥰 #inspiration
Thanks for letting us know :)
Great video, love watching your journey! Husband and I will be traveling to Bend from the east coast this week to visit family. Any updates on your favorite coffee/food joints since you've settled in? Would love any hints on hidden gems if you happen to see this! Rock on, guys!
Nice race recap! Liked the final 2 minute montage
Awesome vlog you guys I got to meet Eric post race in St George we had a great conversation from triathlon, working in Ems as I do and also I’m married to a red head from Canada. Always cheering for both of you no matter the results. You guys appeal to us normal mid pack age groupers because you show that no matter what your athletic abilities are we all have the same feelings. Next time hopefully I’ll get to chat with Paula.
The acoustic music in this video is THE BEST! 🤗 His voice is so good! Can we find these songs somewhere?
∆
Yes please
Looking forward to more TTL merch in stock! Keep it coming.
Thanks for sharing your race recap. I loved the music.
Our pleasure, thanks for watching 🙏
I love how your real and genuine emotions and personalities come through in every video! Keep your chins up and please keep the content coming to inspire the rest of us! Eric good luck at Xterra and Paula keep cranking!
Thanks :) really glad you’re liking what we’re doing 🙏
“This is bigger than just a result”, yes 100% Paula. 🇨🇦🇺🇸 Keep doing posts recaps guys, that’s what the TTL family loves. Thanks so much!
4th is AMAZING!! 👏
When you're back in St. George for Worlds in September, make sure to swim at the SHAC (Sand Hollow Aquatic Center) In Ivins/Santa Clara - it's never busy and super easy to find a lane!
You guys are great!
Loved who honest this video is!
I thought this was a great videoooo, guys! Paula, you had a very good race considering the field, imagine what you'll do when you feel fitter 👊. P.S. just added this race to my bucketlist
Big thumbs up for the Colin Hay cover!
Hermoso video, los felicito 👍☺️
I loved that video, it felt somehow quite intimate, that was lovely.
Loved the Colin Hay cover.
Gah! This was so good!!!!!!!! Well done crew!

Head up Eric, you’re awesome mate. 👊
Thanks for the honest recap
