Waterfall Bank: 10:31
Race Recap: 12:41
One week after racing 70.3 World Championships in St George and placing 7th, I raced in the Xterra USA Championships in Ogden, Utah. The race took place at Snowbasin Resort and was unfortunately a duathlon, as a result of a dangerous algae bloom in the reservoir. The bike course was mostly singletrack, and made for one of the best Xterra events on the circuit. Huge thanks for Xterra's media crew for letting me use their in-race footage for this video.
Thanks so much to all of my sponsors and everyone who was a part of this. Most especially Paula for supporting me the last few weeks as she's been injured. Thank YOU for watching and being part of the journey.

You can sense a higher energy level in Eric now. These recent successes coupled with whatever changes in training hes made have reenergized him. It's good to see.
Also coincides with his increase in plant dietary fiber intake… from the outside looks like lots of little changes coming together. Stoked for him
I think Paula’s injury weighed pretty heavy on his mind as well. As a significant other, you really want to help but when you can’t make it better it gets you down a little.
*everybody moves to Ogden*. Seriously though wow what a beautiful place. Looks like paradise. Also Eric stop making us all look bad with back to back weekend amazing results. And Paula I don’t appreciate your camera skills surpassing mine.
Awesome story about Ben and Waterfall bank. Well deserved and best of luck to him and his endeavor
Waterfall Bank will be my new bank. Our triathlete need the support
The Ben story is amazing 🥰
You have the perfect body type for hills/mountains. Your slight build gives you an extreme advantage in any type of climb be it on a bike or running. Go get em!!
Another awesome finish on a tough course & soon after a half too! Tip: Brown rice over white, refrigerate overnight - changes to a resistant starch. Freezing white bread keeps it fresher & lowers GI 39%.
I am so happy for you!! I've been watching these videos for a while now, following the ups and downs and I'm so happy the end of the year is going so well. The TTL stuff seems to be going well and man, Xterra is totally for you. Congratulations!!!
Appreaciate the work put into creating this cinematographic vid!
Your soundtrack hurts my ears it’s so good, and my wife is from Ogden, thanks to you and Paula for the tunes, Uncle Lucius- keep the wolves away
WOW! Congratulations on the podium finish. This was a much needed positive push. Great work!
So good to see back to back epic race results for you Eric , stoked to hear about Bens support with your new mountain bike and TFL 🙌 exciting times all round look forward to following yours and Paula’s rest of the season 🤩
Great last couple of months, man!!!!!! we are all very happy for you!!!
what an amazing place to compete!! Congratulations for the result! great job!!!👌👏👏👏👏
Congrats man - so neat to follow this journey!
Great video Eric! Really liking the Xterra clips!
Super impressive, Eric! Congrats!
Awesome video's Eric. Love the music as well. Congrat's on your last two races. Keep it up. Hope Paula heals soon.
Eric you rock and deserve everything you have worked so hard for. Keep moving forward!!
Top effort Eric !!!! Congratulations mate
Stunning views 🤩
Congratulations on your race 🎉
Thanks for sharing, always inspiring!
Your tacos looked delicious 😋
Thank you for sharing,
Thanks again for 08:48 there are people that would have us believe we should never purchase anything from the seasonings section of the wholesale clubs. I find keeping the bulk chili (just add a can of tomato sauce to the ground meat); taco (just add water to the ground meat) & Italian Seasoning (just add to sauce or pizza) opens up ideas for meals. Like the Costco Granulated Garlic, it all gets used. Last year we where only able to get seasoning via delivery if we ordered minimum of 2 of the same at a time. Everything in that seasoning order has been used without coming close to the expiration date.
Wow what a great video. Amazing fall colours. Between TTL's videos and triathlon training, racing you both should be so proud of your accomplishments on and off the field of play. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much, that means a lot :) we’ll keep at it 👍
Congrats on the podium! Eric is on a roll!
Nice bike! Congratulations on a couple awesome weekends of racing!
I always hear/heard about "beating your number" Eric, you are burying the number!! Love this. Those xterra courses are totally gnarly! "Raceweek dinner" I am now craving a taco bowl! BTW, went to Viva Chicken in St. George-amazing as usual!! Can you say "I want it THAT way"...... I wanted to say "I'll just take one of each" but settled with Quinoa stuffed avocado. Their sauces are unbelievable. YUM
Nice race. Doing both on and off road triathlons, the off road kick my butt. Love to see you doing both.
Outstanding effort…. Congratulations on your podium.
the right bike and well setup suspension is so huge in mtn biking. Great job!
Nice one Eric! Finish that season off with a bang!
Thanks! Doing my best!
Awesome job in both races.
Eric....your attitude has changed and that is good. Onward you roll and keep it up !
Congratulations!
Congrats!
Maaaan these xterra events look fun. This reminded me how much I miss mountain biking.🦾🦾 great job on the podium!
Thanks so much 🤙 you should definitely try one, the scene is awesome
Congratulations!!!
Grtz on podium
Well done man 👍
Congratulations 👏
A return to Canmore could really help refine those MTB skills, great job!
I can’t wait, definitely next summer 👍
Eric, would you ever be tempted riding the Leadville 100 or the Steamboat gravel races? Just a thought 💭
is it just me or Xterra should make you their new ambassador!!! TTL bringing triathletes into new events!!
Awesome race Eric congrats!
Thanks!
Congrats on top 10 at worlds and Podium finish. The black TTL shirt with the pink and white lettering is perfect shirt for this month. Why, because it is Breast Cancer awareness month! Slainte!
“He sure isn’t swimming”
Damn near spit up my beer
Congrats man ✊🏻
Thanks 🤙
You guys are great! Would be nice to see a little more Paula content. :)
Working on it! We’re starting to ride together more again now that our next races are both on-road, so that helps a lot with filming opportunities ;)
Xterra 😍💪
Collabs with Ellie 😍🇦🇺
@Eric Do you specific trail shoes or just normal running shoes that you would use for a triathlon?
Super good:) like the race suit, its my color, red and blue, make purple, and yes!!! I notice the new bike, wow, now put weights in the tires, like thorn tape, and then take them out for race day, shhh tips for only mountain bike dudes, keep this stuf away from loinal, lol
What did you cut your bars down to? I’m looking to cut mine but don’t want to go too narrow
👏👏👏
Hope to see you on Maui for the Xterra Worlds.
Me too!
Must’ve been the only guy racing with a bell on his bike!!
What's the song called that starts around 5:30 into the video? It's great.
Id be curious as to your opinion. Duathlon or triathlon more difficult? I spoke with Lisa Norden after her win at Challenge Salou this past weekend which was turned in to a du. She said no question duathlon.
Duathlon is brutal. After a swim, I feel a little tired but ready to use my legs. After a 4k run, you’re hypoxic and a bike ride is the last thing you want to do haha

Me gustó que usaran ''La Costeña'' en sus tacos, por los demas ingredientes no opinino. Saludos desde México
Cant wait to watch, will run extra fast today, lol so I can make it back and watch,,,now if you want to improve your swim, start running Spartan races, or if you are like me, just make them up, today I run 13 miles of hills, just like the Spartans, now the problem, there are several of you mountain biking now, hmmmm, well no worries, race is won in the swim, and if not there the run, lol and you people still swim in pools, so I got advantage there, and run on treadmills, lol that one really makes me laugh, all in good fun, dont let your ego get in the way, as it will always slow you down, great job
Interesting - no dropper?
Haven’t gotten one yet, no.. this was initially supposed to be a massive hill climb up from the lake, so I didn’t want the extra weight. I’m planning to get one over the winter to start getting used to it though. There just aren’t a ton of Xterra races where it’s necessary, IMO
@@ThatTriathlonLife I’ve raced MTB since 1998 and Xterra since 1999 and sadly you are right. All the hood hard courses have gone. Bama you’d use one for blood rock but that’s about it.
Dear BEN,
Would love to chat tri with you!
Only one bike and a bunch of empty racks in T2! Thats ususally what transition looks like for me... in T1...
😂 either way, you’ve got room to move!
One thing I know, i know I know a lot:) lol youtube man!!!
Take that investment capital :p
When I am done with the sport, tredmills will be a thing of the past, like they are pointless, kind of like swimming in pools, now I watched the Olympic open water swimmers, the guy who won, didnt even breath of to the side, it was always a sight breath, every other stroke, see swiming pools dont teach you that, lol
Congratulations!
