Hey, everybody. Welcome to that trathon life podcast. I'm Eric Loggerstrom. I'm Paula Finley.

I'm not the best cook, but I can do pasta. I can do a Trader Joe's marinera. Yes. We did the creamy, what was it? Creamy something. Creamy basil. Yeah, it was very good. That was the move for sure. A little Parmesan on top. Okay, so you guys are here in Santa Monica. I was three weeks in Tucson? I mean, do you feel by the end you feel like you got stronger? Paul, you did some really cool stuff up Mount Lemon. Wait, did we even talk about that? I think that was in the last week. I'd love to hear a little bit about that and then hear about how you're feeling now. Yeah, we just finished up three weeks of a training camp. Nick, I can't sit any closer to the
