You may not think it's overly interesting but I love these videos! We get to live vicariously through you. Thanks for another great one.

[@NickGoldston]

Watching Paula turning herself inside out on that run has got me so freakin fired up

[@RudyBeltrame]

The best way to show to my 9 y.o. boy what's "that triathlon life" is on this exact channel! Thank you, Eric and Paula, for the inspiration, as simple as it can get. Your fans from 🇮🇹

[@theiScot]

Eric, mad respect for putting in all the effort to film and edit these every week. In my opinion, these are some of the most interesting videos you guys make, I'd happily watch one every time. Btw, your latte art is coming along very nicely :)

[@cheezily8271]

[@dklhmfamily4833]

Paula’s running montage paired with Waterfall is SO GOOD!

[@tdr10]

Paula’s running scene👏🏻

[@vsrugby]

There may be plenty of day in the life videos out there , but they won’t be as engaging and shot and edited as beautifully as yours 🙌🤩🥳

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Aw thanks :)

[@joshuaglassmyer8358]

12:09 Watching the hound run in slo-mo you can see there's a goofy efficiency to his full-out. Love your soundtracks. You make this life you live seem a fun one indeed.

[@vijeetjaisinghani6163]

The video quality when Eric says, "it's his play time", is just monumental. Thank you both!

[@peteclarke]

Colin gave me one of your shirts and it fits perfect:) I feel fitter just wearing it! Keep kicking ass guys!

[@orlandocampos2214]

Please keep doing this, you don’t imagine how you motivate me to keep the bike rolling... 😀

[@123Lucuzz]

9:18 risky business with the coffee on a white rug mate 😅

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

I like to live dangerously. Safe is boring ;)

[@scottholland2558]

Thank you for the time you take to film, edit and upload these videos with us! Phenomenal piece of art put together this week and a appreciate you sharing your lives with us.😀

[@dataseeker7460]

It was good to see you both in a lighter mood this week. You looked more relaxed.

[@cheezily8271]

My dad got his new bike this weekend it needs a few tweeks his pedals and breaks need a little fix but i was extited it looks really cool and i am very happy for him in am exited that he finally got what he has wanted for a long time a new triatholon bike

[@cheezily8271]

[@gregmagrath7444]

Fantastic video. Its great to see how you Pro`s live your day and fit in all that training compared to us "normal" people:-)

[@NavigationTraining]

You are doing a great job with these videos, can't wait for the algorithm to reward you!

[@kellysiffin5620]

Thanks. Nice work!!!

[@farrelchinnappa9484]

The locations that u guys run, too beautiful

[@bodhizafa6323]

Totally inspired by Paula going full guns on her run session. That's commitment and 100% dedication. I went out yesterday to emulate. Obviously not at her bullet pace :0) Great channel!!!!

[@C_Barn]

I like the "day in the life videos", honestly. Even though some may think they are overdone. I would rather watch those every week. Something about it, I don't know.

[@ryanking1460]

Awesome day! Keeps me fired up every week. Ironman Tulsa 7 weeks out. Thanks Eric an Paula.! Always inspiring!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Killer! Good luck!

[@bodhizafa6323]

Living vicariously through you!!

[@mateusbittencourtmendes2684]

Your vídeos just get better and better!! Loving all of them!!

[@jvix959]

Just had to say that this video got fed twice into my watch list by KZbin, and for once I decided to watch it a second time. I was feeling a bit down and this video got me up again. Keep going guys. Best channel ever

[@Hubertus-ko6yl]

Run Paula run... fast and faster. Great Vid.

[@billtalleyrealestate2966]

Saw a video of yours' from a year ago. How your lives have changed! For the better! (that sounds like a great video topic since you've got your lives on tape from then). Maybe even a few thoughts on where you want to be next year! Keep moving forward and expect a lot!

[@skshain]

You might not have thought it was interesting, but I loved day in the life!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Thanks :) I guess we all wonder why someone would want to watch what we did all day 😂 but we did have a great day, so there’s that!

[@DorukBalkan]

Great video as always! Nice save with the pour over cup ^^ As others, really liked Paula's run piece! Paula's earrings look really nice too!

[@AntonioOrru21]

Guys your videos are part of my routine😇🥰

[@rbcism]

Best day in the life out there!!!! Keep crushing it you two and thanks for sharing! Looking forward to more men’s stuff Eric, thanks!

[@cphilipbrown]

I thought it was interesting. Keep it up guys.

[@trbeyond]

You do some great stuff but this is still my favorite vlog format! Only suggestion would be that time of day stamps would be really interesting to see

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Yeah I should definitely do that. I ran out of time a bit on this edit, but next time!

[@user-zn4pd1xd1n]

We just can't get enough of these, day in the life are my favourites :D

[@MarceloG..]

Hard day at the office. Paula's run was so intense. Love the day in the life vlogs... Great job Eric!

[@tkoriordan]

“Day in the life” is still better than exclusively “a day of meals.” Also sweet wheels. 🤩

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Haha shoot, I guess I need to cancel next weeks meals vid 😂

[@Samuelclark11]

Spending that Daytona purse wisely!

[@barryfield9300]

17:45 of a Eric Lagerstrom production - life is good! The music/scenary/drone shots/editing is A++! Workout caption of the swim set is much appreciated. I would assume the "catch up" drill was included in the 800 warmup. Looked like 5,100 meters total which is more than 2 swim workouts for me - totally blows my mind!!

[@stewconway2523]

Love your videos guys, great music and training shots! Thank you

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Thanks for watching!

[@alisontriathlonlover]

Always inspiring, thanks for sharing your journey with us 🤩

[@briang1561]

I love the running slo mo

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Awesome :) sometimes I wonder if I’m the only one

[@coreysteimel5986]

Eric, AWESOME video! I love watching these, you guys are both so amazing! Thank you both for working so hard to be your full selves, and for sharing it with all of us. You both are very inspiring. Eric, I was especially inspired by your words on the Breakfast with Bob before Challenge Miami - You really gave me a perspective enhancement on my journey with triathlon as well as a brighter perspective on my view on life. Thanks brother!

[@davidrossbach9226]

This was great! Please get good wind tunnel footage, I LOVE that stuff.

[@3go.training331]

just another great job guys

[@stuartshine97]

Wanting you two to crush St George!!!! Get it. . . I'm geeked for my 10 mile run here in a few! Thanks again!

[@kristinajohnson5292]

Found you from Convos over cold brew podcast! xo

[@88happytrails]

You had me at Espresso....! Thanks for the amazing content - keep up the great work!! :-) By the way, you found a great dog - Flynn's temperament seems fantastic!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

He really is an angel. I have fun complaining about his energy level, but he’s such a good dog

[@robbo3132]

Seriously nice video! Can't believe how good some of the angles and edit are

[@nicholasfrazier9719]

I remember the one where you got the drone stuck in the tree. That was one of the first ones I watched.

[@tstede27]

Really awesome video as always!

[@jimmy.goes.camping]

Song at the start is epic!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

One of my favorites 👌

[@spencerallen9661]

Cool vlog. Old school. 🙏👊

[@derekowens2427]

I'm heading to Bend next week for the first time and have a week off of work! Planning a solo training camp - got swims planned at Juniper, and looking for some recommendations on the best road cycling and running (road or trail) in the area (and also your favorite coffee shops). Staying downtown. Got a few quick thoughts?

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Road riding is best to the north. Check out Palette coffee for a smaller, cool spot. Lone pine is probably the biggest tourist spot

[@davidhaythornthwaite692]

Another Sunday complete. Great insight as always. Looking forward to some new TTL stuff, although my t-shirt draw and mug rack is getting pretty TTL full now lol. Stay safe, see you next week.

[@craiggardiner4047]

Loved it - thank you

[@mariocarrillo9969]

Love the video! First time checking out your stuff and I am hooked! Also, dope house!

[@michaelmarckx639]

This is so rad.

[@Samuelclark11]

Paula morning shots are jokes 😂 she’s ready to swipe your damn camera off the table

[@bikeknightAT]

loved the video, editing on point .. eric out here putting everyone else to shame

[@jenniferwebster3067]

Great couch, where'do you source it? Also, was sporting my That Triathlon Life text hat in Toronto, had a few people come up to me and ask about the distances, a bunch of great questions, and the of course "Do you think I could do it?". For people I just met on the street obvious answer Hell Yes, just start to train. Rinse, repeat. All because of your hat.

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

That’s fantastic, I love it 🙌 we actually got the couch from Rejuvenation. Normally fully out of our price range but it was 50% off because one of the arms is broken inside. I figure it should be fairly easy to fix

[@debtraccarella1131]

I love your videos!!! So inspiring!!! Thank you for sharing!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Our pleasure, thanks for hanging out 🤙

[@EverythingIsPhotogenic]

Gooseneck kettle, Eric. Pour over game changer 😉

[@RunnerRio]

Yep. And can get one with a temperature gauge on it so that you're pouring at 212 deg F.

[@EverythingIsPhotogenic]

@@RunnerRio yikes, 212 is way too hot 205 degrees tops, coffee will be overextracted and bitter at 212.

[@RunnerRio]

@@EverythingIsPhotogenic Hadn’t heard that, but I will take your advice and pour at 205. Thanks!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

I’ve been looking at them for ever, but didn’t have time to snag one before this vid 👌 going to get the fellow for sure

[@2UpDuc]

Faster swim time!!! Old school way that I use to get faster and stronger in the pool was a T-shirt. Instead of drag shorts get a cotton T-shirt one size smaller than normal wearing size and jump in. It will wear you out quick. Get as close as possible to regular times for a week then take shirt off. You will notice a huge difference in speed and strength.

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Woof. I grew up in a drag suit, but a drag shirt is next level

[@BenjaminBriu]

Lov the vid!!

[@waynetifflin4195]

You need to do a travel mug now. Can't have coffee in the vehicle in a normal cup.

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Been working on it 👌

[@edutoro11]

Those morning faces where the best 🤣🤣🤣🤣..... glad to see im not the only one with THAT face before coffe!!!!.

[@zepols86]

those pancakes look amazing, I need a stack, ASAP, LOL

[@nicholasthomas1987]

Awesome

[@parkerkerth8446]

Have you ever thought of getting a stryd pod? That way you can output even effort going up and down hills when running

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

No I’ve never really considered it. For me, that would just be too much to think about and running tends to go better for me the less I think about every step, number, etc. but if they’re accurate, I can see the value if you’re not confident in pacing/perceived exertion

[@RD_murray]

how does paula run in those shoes haha I can not even walk im mine i just got 😂

[@farrelchinnappa9484]

So pros watch other pros, nice to see, lol

@paula. What brand shorts were you wearing during the repeat workout. Wanted to try that style and yours seem perfect. Thank you.

[@mikewilson2892]

Living room lamps? where did you get that style? Thanks for keeping me motivated to train. This is my Sunday goto for starting off my week in a positive light !

One lamp is for over the “bar” and one is for the entryway. Picking Lighting is a dizzying task. There are way too many options these days haha
