This week we headed to Los Angeles to race the Herbalife 24 LA Triathlon. It's been a bucket list race for us for years, and it didn't disappoint! We kicked taper week off with a pizza party, then wrapped our last couple hard sessions, including a gravel ride through Ben's trail system in Bend, Oregon, where we live. Then we took a quick flight to LA, snuck in a swim at the LA84 swim center and crashed for the night. We swam at Venice Beach to preview the swim course, but otherwise we did't get to see much of the course due to how much traffic there is on the city streets you ultimately race on.

Feels nice to see Paula in such a good mood
finally. the ice is melting
fave part: seeing both of you get tricked by that shallow beach break at 12:02 😂 I have personally face planted just like that too many times
Congrats on the engagement :)
The music montages this week were primo!
Fantastic video! So much fun from start to finish.
I always watch these videos in my break at work, gets me in such a good vibe again for the rest of my day! Keep up the awesome work Eric! 🤟
Epic! Great video guys!
that music montage at the beginning reminded me of christmas!
as always, great stuff, motivational, vibes, etc... keep up the good work!
Amazing video! Love the shots from the beach. Great to see Paula in a good mood.
You rock man! Absolute great content!
great video!! vibe and production quality is amazing!
Awesome video! Way to have a solid performance to end the season. Especially the field that came to be apart of your vlog, unofficially! Way to hit the dirt!
You make me smile! Training is so much easier watching you guys!
Love the music, the mid-week video and the great video quality!
Awesome video guys! Pizza, red wine, TTL and good music! Yeah!
Great video beginning to end. You guys are way to happy and excited swimming in that freezing ocean. 😜😜
Best opening dance, EVER! lots of love from Australia 🐨❤️
Enjoyed seeing Paula in a playful mood. I hope she shows us as bit more in upcoming videos.
Great underwater slo/mo shots of Paula in that LA super pool. Perfect textbook stroke, I must have watched it 10X!
Great vid Eric the music and vibes awesome 👏
Loved this episode and a master of the music. Have a great race and please come to Tucson!!!!
Another entertaining vid ERic, from off road biking in Bend to swimming at Venice beach. You definitely have ocean swimming genes. Getting quickly through the surf and catching a wave coming back in is a skill you have mastered. I would bet you're in the top 5 in the swim, close to Ben Kanute.
Such a FUN video. Between your friends Nick and Danny, you have some very creative friends. Congrats on your LA race. It takes a certain type of athlete to excel in adverse/ challenging conditions. In the running circles we call those athletes mudders.
Awesome racing Eric at the weekend ! Great edit as always loving the sound tracks , Paula’s dancing and pizza parties 🎉
Thanks! And glad you dig it! Vibes are good 👍
Very high stoke indeed this week. Yay! Love Paula’s pizza dance and I agree about red sauce. So many other possibilities! And...”sausagey” 🤣🤣🤣
I swear, your videos always make my day better. It's wednesday night where I am, was a stressful day until I watched this episode. Super grateful. Boosts my motivation to train more too.
That makes me so stoked to hear :) that’s what I want to get out of videos, good vibes and to get pumped and inspired
thaaaats so true dude. haha my whole week is about waiting for sunday updates 😁 hope to see u guys in worlds championship kkk whenever it happens
Really nice vibe on this video...
The opening pizza montage is perfection - the music, the twirling... 👌🏾
AGREED! I now want a pizza!
Oh yay! All those dance lessons finally pay off 😍
That's what I thought :)
Always get caught out when your busy schedule denotes mid-week updates, instead of the Sunday slot, but hey your athletes first and foremost, another great video, seems everyone who is anyone in Tri was in LA. Must have been sweet racing up and down the main streets. Hope you both did ok, look forward to seeing the update, post-race. Although I think you might be off to Oceanside, if I remember rightly, anyway stay safe, much love from the UK. See you next week, or next update.
Thinking the flavor eluding Danny 02:20 is Umami. There was a great TedEd video talking about it in all its fermented glory. Plus the Millard effect that your oven is providing so well.
TTL wine? Did I miss something? Great, fun video! Loved the tunes
I watched the pool segment with Paula’s stroke more than once…..I have stroke envy 🤣🤣🏊🏻♀️
UH HO! Eric and Paula are moving to LA for the winter!!
The Ooni is fantastic. Makes great thin crust pizza too. Love the Ooni.
Great video - LOVED the pizza segment!!
I didn’t think it really fit into race week, but it was just too fun :)
@@ThatTriathlonLife I was pricing out the pizza maker while watching the video, they should sponsor you lol
What you're describing at the beginning makes me think of the netflix show called "Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat" where the best balance of all 4 is the secret for perfect taste :p
Another cool vid cheers guys!!
Love the Ooni!
I saw the Tillamook cheese placed in the first minute and was hoping you'd be announcing a new partnership. That stuff is so good. Great video, kind of makes me want to go out to LA to do that race next season.
Haha that would be fun. I’ve been going to the factory on our beach vacations since I could walk
Thats my pool i swim at!!! So crazy you guys were there that’s awesome
Watching this video well waiting for dinner will really make you want an Ooni pizza oven! I think I’m putting one on the wishlist!
Also, loved the vibe and how happy you both seemed in this video! Keep up the great work! Put a smile on my face after a busy week :)
It’s nice to see Paulina showing some personality.
Great music!
Paula does "Happy Towel Dance", Paula wins race. So happy towel dance before every race now required.
great video
Thanks John
The thumbnail was very tempting.
And love it, ocean swim!!! Guys no swiming pool:) now lets get you surfing:) as I live close to mavricks:)
Give me those LA vibbeeezzzzzzzzzz. STAY FOREVERRRR
Might want to try Rose cafe in Venice. Good eats!
Also for next year, I’d suggest trying to find an air bnb in Santa Monica rather than Venice. Safer neighborhoods but right next to Venice for access. It’s a whole thing, Venice has issues, which is why you have probably seen signs saying “recall mike bonin”.
Have fun!
- just moved out of west LA to Utah. ;)
Totally agree with Santa Monica 👍 I don’t know anything about Mr. Bonin, but our friend Nick lives in Santa Monica and it’s very beautiful
I swim in a 32m pool. It’s different! And when I hope into a 25m pool I just seem so much faster! Haha.
It’s the pool at the fairmont in Banff.
Eric when are you going to get those grey beanie bobble hats in the shop they look ace ✌
The fans all want more Danny!!!
Don’t take this as an insult, but y’all seem less stressed and aggravated in last few videos. 😀 Great stuff. Enjoying the content.
Nice
you guys could officially make a pizza commercial!
Injury makes you feel human again :D
What's the pull buoy that Paula is using? Any advantages/benefits to its design? Asking for a friend who had hamstring surgery and is swimming with one almost exclusively for now.
Where did you get your Pizza Maker ? 🍕 🍕 Thanks 😛.
Have you tried pizza in a smoker? Started doing that last year and haven't gone back to any other way of cooking it!
Danny R. Long time man.
It's funny how there's always a handful of people with the thumbs down. What's not to like , the pizza oven? The coffee shops? Venice Beach? Ok then. Oh I know. Maybe they're missing Flynn!! :D
"...last bit of sunshine..." not a thing in the desert southwest.
I'd love to see a Lionel, yo yo yo, TTL winter in Tucson. Opportunity for some really amazing content. Maybe convince those Norwegians to stay over.
If it means someone else will make our videos for us for a couple weeks, I'd be very down 😂
Did you bring your own smart bike trainer with you? I have never travelled with mine…
Do you have a recipe for the pizza?
waiting for race recap
Anyone know what song starts at 9:34?
Have you ever had a coronary artery calcification scan?
My wife says "couples goals"
What is your pre-race Chipotle meal of choice?
My avatar pic is from this pool
Whats your pizza dough recipe!?
1: Drive to store 2: Buy dough
Am i wrong or is the TAP packaging plastic as well?
It is, but it’s significantly smaller than the previous packaging, like 70% less plastic. We don’t have it with us, but we’ll actually be using their 30 serving bottle (aluminum) with the reusable flask, except for when we race. endurancetap.com/products/us-15-shot-multi-serve
You guys fly with a kickr?
Heather actually brought one with her from Tucson on let us use it
What's the oven called?
Ooni (I’m pretty sure that’s the spelling) we got the bigger model. The smaller one would probably have worked for “personal” size pizzas. We do more family style
Ah, the good ol days when Paula wasn't such a debbie downer.
Now i'm hungry for pizza for breakfast, thanks for that. 😉
😬 I really really tried to have this up last night but the youtube gods weren't having it
Lol, it means the pizza is not cooked long enough, still looked good, the secret to pizza, is one, you don't put animals on it, or Gods creatures, second, you cook it at as high of a tempt as possible, this is where you most likely went wrong, as your friend was being nice, a doughy pizza is under cooked,,,lol
Any time you want to race, training in livermore now, they have a lake, endless mountain bike trails, you beat me, 3,333 for you, and I will pay,,,if I loose, as my dream is to win the big race, and you would be a great start, alctatraz champ,,,now think of it this way, sooner might be better then latter, lol as my run is getting stronger, now bike is getting weaker, lol did not expect that, actually really thought just the opposite would happen, like building a better cardio, faster bike, but seems my hips, loose power after building a faster run, like what makes my legs swing fast running, is not what makes you bike faster, this is why you should be able to beat loinal, you should be able to out run him, and your aero is better, you just need the bounce, like watch whats her name, people all the pros, mostly women, lol, but Juan has it down to, buy look at their shoulders, they are like snaking, that's what you need, and your well come, and no worries, I want you at your best, if I ever get the race, and they have dog friendly camp ground, lake del val:)
Great vid and music is on point! Separately, why the rando comments about P's mood? Other than a few injury stressors (who wouldn't get frustrated w/ that stuff?!), she seems to always be a pretty focused athletea/chica and actually w/ a hilarious deadpan sense of humor. Keep on keeping on P! Great duo E & P! Oh and Flynn too! :)
Also, P doesn’t owe us anything. I appreciate her genuineness on camera.
