Hey everyone. Welcome to that triathlon life podcast. I'm Erica Lagerstrom. I'm Paula Finley.

I'm Nick Goldston. Man, this is just like a regular podcast. We don't have any race recap to do.

None of us have accomplished major life milestones in the past weekend. So we're just going to, I think,

crush questions so hard as soon as we get through

the news and things that are going on. Well, speaking of crushing life milestones, Harry Stiles,

who most of you may know as the musician, huge billboard chart-topping musician, he was in the news a few months ago for running a fast

marathon. He just ran the Berlin Marathon this weekend in under three hours at 259.13. I know to the two

of you, Eric and Paula, you elite professional world-class athletes that feels like a walking pace,

but to the rest of us, that is amazing.

To be able to run that fast and also be so successful in something else that requires

touring and looking a certain way and emotional vulnerability, I'm so impressed.

I think this is another check in the box or another data point

indicating that the strong connection between endurance outlet and musical people. I, you know,

just I feel, I feel like you and I have had this conversation of where the two fuel each

other a little bit and create some balance. And I've come into creativity from the sports side. You came into sports after being creative. But we have like a similar balance and I feel like they inspire each other. Yeah, speaking of Rich, if anyone's new here, Eric, who are you? Speaking of which, if Harry Stiles wants to come on the pod, we would have it. Yeah, Harry, you're allowed to come on the pod. Yeah, did you slide into his DMs or what?

I've talked to him many times, but never, never spoken to him.

All right.

Well, we'll allow it.

If he is interested, he can come on.

But this is not a music podcast.

This is not a marathon podcast, but we do appreciate both of those things.

This is a triathlon focused podcast, generally speaking.
