[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Here's that link to watch the Couples Tri Sunday morning! fb.me/e/VZCUKDxq We'll try to have another video up first thing next week . Thanks for watching, everyone, it means a lot

[@seriasssam]

What pump head is that you are using, as I can't seem to find a pump that fits into the disc hole and the crack pipes are a bit annoying when trying to inflate tubeless tyres haha

[@oliverleibbrandt8067]

how does sram deal with cross chaining with its 1x system

[@1519Spring]

Yes to Eric+Flynn 5K. So fun!

[@susanwiggins6309]

YES!!

[@Wingman771]

I think those white shoes Paula had are the Endorphin Shift! Best of luck in both your races this weekend!

[@attilaforintos1941]

Yeah, first generation Endorphin Shifts :)

[@jamesd5241]

yup shifts

[@susanwiggins6309]

Bonus video - love it! Good luck Paula & Eric I'll be cheering for you.

[@irondistance4313]

Love the new E119, just went over to 1x AXs myself, I agree the vuka shift is cool, I wanted a little more lift so I’m running the vuka 110 and waiting for a blip box, hope it’s here Monday. Good luck tomorrow! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Miss33S]

love this race week series!!! comment before watching

[@scboulder1985]

Hope you guys had a great race. Definitely do the 5k dog run. That would make a great video. Cheers!

[@Ghostina1]

Another Purple Bike!!!! Love that so many bikes turn to that awesome colour!!!! My dogma F MYWay is also Purple ... with borealis 😇🤙

[@pierreken8715]

You're a real bike-magician, Eric! Putting all those bikes together like it seems a joke 😳.. Loads of respect, mate. TTL RULES!!! Grtz from little Belgium!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Just feels weird to take it to a shop when you can do it yourself 🤷‍♂️ It’s kind of zen to go out to the garage, put on music and put them together 🤙

[@pierreken8715]

@@ThatTriathlonLife Thx a lot for your kind reaction! You really are too humble, in Belgium more than 70% of the local bike shops have to pass when it comes to di2 and etap! Many grtz to Paula and keep up the great work 👍👌❗

[@robertlauber9021]

That new bike is the sauce 🧨

[@jamesd5241]

wow that bike build was so sexy, very well shot video. plus the integration on that argon looks super slick. Good luck for winning that 100k!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Thanks! Glad you liked it. The whole bike really is well executed, I'm pumped on it

[@barryfield9300]

Eric & Paula, much thanks for the vid, enjoyed the workouts. You both look very fit, "crush it" this weekend!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Will do, thanks Barry!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Glad you liked it, thanks for letting us know :)

[@julien7705]

Congrats for your 4th place!

[@tiffanybrantley7039]

Yes! Eric and Flynn should do a 5K! Maybe Flynn could wear a canine cam! Have fun in the couples tri!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Gonna have to test that camera setup!

[@lisahunt59]

That bike looks awesome!!

[@garthnichols9855]

Yes to the 5km! Let's see you two on the treadmill first 🤣

[@tanyamccarron7628]

What glasses are those Paula? Love them! Good luck to you both on Sunday!! Can't wait to watch!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

The ones at the beginning are the "westcraft" and the ones at the end are the "speedcraft SL" both by 100% 👌

[@albertobullrich6502]

Eric, cool tech on your new bike.. good luck tomorrow💪

[@ryansuchodolski68]

Great video guys. Eric, your due to have a good race. best of luck to both of you. Go kick some butt!

[@jilliancarlson5605]

YES to doing the 5k with Flynn!!! 🔥

[@bboysayaw]

Wow the Argon color and integration is fire! Good luck! Rooting for you both to take it! Podcast next week??

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Podcast next week for sure. We actually brought the equipment with us in case we want to do one here 👍

[@BlakeJacques]

LOVE the bike portion, As a first time Ironman runner, definitely need to focus on specs haha!

[@Miss33S]

will be watching FB live and cheering for you both!!!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Killer! Thanks!

[@runbikerun8189]

The Speed has a nylon plate. The Pro is carbon plated.

[@jasonbroadbelt]

Good luck at the race! That should be fun. Side note, the endorphin pro is a great shoe..

[@Nils_m9]

I think Paula has quite some experience with winning 100k 👀 gl just Imagine Jan and Emma showing up 🤣

[@chrisherasdeleon]

Hi from Guam! Love your videos and music. Good luck with your race 🍺

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Hey! Thanks man!

[@djjazzydean]

Great vid!

[@ChadPenoyer]

Have a great race!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Thanks Chad!

[@jonp7267]

@eric. Did your pup stay with the Corbin’s? If yes. Is there video evidence? I’m feeling the “in the meantime…” for next week.

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Haha he stayed with my friend Danny since the Corbins had a trip. Paula’s posted some “updates” on her Instagram

[@S97ify]

so much fun, both of you has the same interest. wish i could be like that someday

[@kevincashatt7040]

Sweet build!

[@bonn1771]

good luck to both of you near me there is a race called the mutt strut a 3 mile race with dogs and their owners Eric the new TT bike brakes are have a vent to cool them. that is so sweet

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Mutt Strut 😂

[@buildingreno]

I will be cheering for team TTL! BEST OF LUCK!

[@TheDrgibbs]

Eric bike is amazing. Why is it when you see a bike better than yours you immediately get bike envy. Ugh! Do the dog 5k....but I'll can you tell from experience make sure he sh*ts before, that kept me from a podium once. Paula sauconys rock

[@runbikeswim3652]

Thought I noticed the 💯%... No more Rudy Project? And Oakley's?

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Yep 👍 I haven't been with Rudy for a year now, and just spent a while trying stuff out to see what we like before jumping into anything

[@narcisojrsaavedra8632]

Do you guys have a poster with both of ur bikes next to each other ?? They’re so beautiful 🥹

[@eduardopadron6877]

Hi, Eric! I like your headphones, could you tell me the brand? Congratulatios for your videos! Greetings from Canary Islands

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

I’ve got Jaybird buds for when I train and noise cancelling JBL for flying 👌

[@NickGoldston]

I'll be there sweating in my TTL shirt

[@michaelhicks97]

The white saucony shoe is the endorphin shift.

[@MarceloG..]

That Argon looks sick!!! Is it better than Paula's S-Work? haha! Best of lucks to my favorite couple!!!!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Depends who you ask 😂

[@dew_reg1574]

It’s a good looking bike ! Apparently the aero benefit of not having a front derailleur brings also a small penalty by having a longer cage for the rear derailleur. I heard that more for gravel and road bikes with probably a wider range of gears. What are your gear ratios ? :)

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Oh that's interesting.. It would also depend how much time you were spending in the bigger cogs, with the derailleur fully extended.. I'm running 52t in the front and 10-33 in the back

[@dew_reg1574]

@@ThatTriathlonLife i heard it in the last video of Dylan Johnson who speaks about drivetrain efficiency

[@1519Spring]

Get 'em!

[@danielcavanagh4110]

Does anyone know if you purchase the live feed but can’t watch it live, are you able to watch it later?

[@remileigh8077]

Love the video guys, you're both so inspiring to watch. Quick question for Paula - where are her long cycling leggings from? Look really nice! Thanks :-) x

[@renatamaduta6974]

Awesome :)

[@ChazzzzR]

I know that you have probably covered it, but how do you film the in pool scenes? Love the channel, thank you for documenting your experiences.

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

For the in-water shots I mostly use the gopro hero 9, and for the pre-swim stuff and above water shots I use my main camera, the A7s3

[@mysho6317]

Well done as usual. Hey Eric, have You been using Specialized Turbo Tires in all your Tri races?

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

This'll be the first race I've used them for, but Paula used them last year. I've been running the turbo cotton with latex tubes

[@terramclaren2597]

You should sign up for the 5k with Flynn

[@Rover4387]

garage tour? and yes Flinn would crush it!!

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

We've got a "dream Garage" video from about 8 months ago!

[@bradyrhodes6707]

okay, what song is that in the beginning of the video?!?!

[@josemirallesbou1763]

PARA CUANDO SUBTITULOS EN CASTELLANO?POR FAVOR🙏🙏

[@ccuellar6212]

Just imagine how much lighter and faster those TT bikes would be with rim brakes 🤤

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

We've got a few rim brake TT bikes to sell if you want 'em ;)

[@emilymortensen1606]

How long does it take you to edit one video?

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

I’ve gotten it down from probably 10 hours when I first started to about 4 now. It’s hard to keep track of since every day I fit in 20 minutes here and there, then really do the bulk on Saturday afternoons

[@chriswilliams6495]

Question: tell me about your pump and air chuck.

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

Silca 👌

[@valerieharr7190]

What brand is your "bouncy" treadmill? Good luck and hugs to Flynn.

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

It’s a life fitness like what you’d find at a lot of gyms. We found it used but refurbished here in town

[@mrgq2000]

What pump did you use to inflate the tires?

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

I’ve got the air chamber by PRO, which is a Shimano sun company. It’s good, but I also have the birzman in Canada, which I like a bit more

[@charlieruehl8589]

What size cassette on that 1x?

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

10-33

[@janelleotero9666]

What glasses are those?

[@ThatTriathlonLife]

They're all from 100%

[@bretgreenfield1511]

Wow what a surprise, bonus video!!! And Eric,,,you know I always speak my heart, good or say fair, never bad, but your bike, and build, well made my heart jump or even give my body the tingles, I almost see purple, in the color, purple is the new black, and I love it, if you can only see the bikes I ride, lol well you can, euro bike, 399 dollars, made it even heavier, about 46 pounds, ride one, and have two sitting in boxes, so when this one breaks, I just pull a new one out of the box, saves time and money,,,nothing like your bike, your bike its like a formula one car, I actually watch them, to try and learn for my bike, it's still being built, no rush, as the 46 pounds will make me stronger, its just about timing now, as to win my light bike is here, now about this sweat shirt, its the best one I own, and the color, its like a mint green, or at least the color I thought mint green was, lol but what ever this color is,,,I promise to paint my 38 foot crown bus, notice its a crown bus, has a crown on it, made for the king, me, now I am not here to be king of people, as most kings wanted to be, I am going to be the king of tri,,,back to the color, its so perfect, and the sweat shirt smells so good, must be the organic materials, see organic is obviously the way to go, I think my body is so enlightened, that say the chemical s on cloths effect the way I feel, I mean, just dont know how to explain it, expect, feels like I just drove to lake tahoe, and ever breath, feels good, so I am going shoping on Amazon, today!!! organic clothing, it feels good, and smells good, like when you open the package, it smells good, and you put it on, and then you smell good, wow! Wow !! Wow!!! See there is so much to learn, or perfect in this triathlon life, hence why I choose it for my dream, now if it were me, 100k lets get it!!! I mean, let get it!!! Even I will start the manifestation, as this power I am maybe the best at, lol like what ever I dream, comes into my life, so before bed, and especially before you get out of bed, you visualize a perfect race, like wet suits riping off durring transition, and shoes just slipping on, then like go thru the whole run in your head, race fast, but race like at any time, they will release , the running of the bulls, or like a boxer waiting for tenth round, but conserve everything for the run, like rest after the swim, I see so many people run fast after swim to transition, right??? Now as youtube man, we always change sports, so we are boxers, swim is first round, get it, now after round, I sit, and rest, now, a tri person, after first round, he runs around the ring, until next round, and then we start round 2,,,lol see I was a boxer, but after knocking my friends outs, and then me getting knocked out I quit, lol however like everything in life, I learning so much!!! And from you to, as this organic clothing is super duper good:) thanks for my best sweat shirt of my life!! Now it's time to go for another bet ride of my life, happy racing, don't let that money change that, as happy always wins!!!
