What's up, everybody?

Welcome to that triathlon life podcast.

I'm Eric Latterstrom. I'm Paula Finlay. I'm Nick Goldstein. We've got a killer show for you this week. We had some great feedback after last week. So we're going to kind of keep that momentum going. And there's going to be some curveballs in here, I think. I'm psyched. I'm a professional trathlete. Paul's a professional triathlete. Nick's a professional musician, great friend of ours. Really solid trathlete in his own right. I feel like we can drop the qualifiers of how slow or fast I am. I'm a professional musician, amateur triathlete. It's fine. I know my place here. We weren't just like walking and along the street, and we found a guy who knows how to master sound to do our podcast. You've done a couple

triathlons.

You're qualified. We weren't just like walking along the street and we found a guy who like knows how to master sound to do our podcast.

You've you've done a couple triathlons. You're qualified to like give a little bit of advice.

Right, right, right. That's where we're at. Yeah, that's what's up. We're stuck to be here.

The bulk of the show does come from questions from podcast supporters, people who listen to the podcast. So I appreciate that, anybody who's written in. And from what Paula tells me, we have a crazy amount of good questions this week. Yeah, we got a lot of questions, hey, Nick? Yeah. I left a couple of, but I sent you most because I really like basically all of them. I really appreciate Paula. Little inside baseball, I really appreciate when you give me the little star and say, good question. I like that. That gives me a sense of confidence when I pick them. So there were many this week. I did a little bit of that. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, last week was fun. I don't know. We're just in a good mood and I feel like I'm not in a good mood right now, so we'll see how it goes. We're going to rub you up. Good start. Stand by for good mood, coming in hot.

We're going to keep it rolling with the news. I started doing the news last week, so we can talk a little bit about what's going on in the triathlon world, or this week is going to be a little bit run world heavy, but since running is involved in trathlon, I think that's okay. Somebody actually sent this to me, made me aware of it, which is just some crazy nests.

Lucy Gossage, ex-professional triathlete.

I don't know if either of you ever heard that name before, but she went and run this thing,

won this thing in England called the Montane Spine.

Here are the details on this crazy event.

268 mile running race across England.

10,000 meters of elevation gain.

10,000 meters.

10,000 meters.

And it's not like a stage race like the Trudeau France.

It's just the total time.

You start and then you finish. So it's up to you how much you want to sleep or not sleep or stop for food, et cetera. There are a couple of spots where the marshals of the course say, like, you have to have a headlamp here. You have to, you know, you can't depart here without an emergency rain jacket, that sort of a thing. But that's about it.

I looked through all the pictures from this.

They were epic.
