Hey, everyone. Welcome to that triathlon live podcast. I'm Eric Loggerstrom. I'm Paula Finley. I'm Nick Goldstone.

We're hanging on Bend. Paul and I, we're back home in Bend. It is beautiful weather. We're continuing to skip winter here in the West Coast, except for I think some places in California. And we're getting ready for Oceanside is the next thing that's coming up. So a couple

weeks out from that. We've got a lot of fun stuff that we're going to be doing with TTL and just looking

forward to the vibes. We got whiteboards. Yes. I mean, most importantly, the thing of the week,

last week we wanted whiteboards. This week we have whiteboards. Thanks to Nick, who is so incredibly

organized and thoughtful that he

Never have been called organized in my life, but this was one exception. It's that you're turning over a new leaf. Does you get yourself a whiteboard? Yeah, I have two as well, but I will not be needing him today. Okay. Yes, you guys are going to be on the deos here. The deus, I'm not sure if that's right. But it's a you guys are going to be on the gauntlet. I don't know how to speak English.

So we are using our new white. You guys are going to be on the daos here. The dais, I'm not sure if that's right. But you guys are going to be on the gauntlet.

I don't know how to speak English. So we are using our new whiteboards today. Yes. Fantastic. That's exciting. If you're new here, Paul and I are both professional athletes. Nick is an amateur athlete, professional musician. We all like triathlon. I'm actually wearing a shirt right now that all it says on it is triathlon and cursive.

I love that shirt.

It's how much of a frother I am. Do you know what this is, Eric? Do either of you guys recognize this? It is a cool shirt. This is a very important album called The Low End Theory by a Tribe Called Quest. It's like you would recognize some of these songs off of the song for the song for sure. Yeah. I used that. I used tribe called Quest in my, uh... I saw that. In my recent post where I was like swimming for the first time and it's kind of ironic because it's can I kick it and I definitely can't. You cannot. And it's, yes, I can. But no, you can't. Did you guys watch the Academy Awards last night? Well, I was with you, man.

So I watched a little bit. Well, Kingfish actually performed. He was on stage. Oh, he did. We did not see that part. I didn't actually watch it. I watched the highlights. But I thought it was really cool that the female won cinematographer for the first time ever. Oh, yeah. Her name is Autumn.

Have you watched that film yet, Nick? No, I haven't watched any of the best picture films. I feel like when you come, when we're hanging on in Ocean Side, like maybe Wednesday night, we should watch that all together. That would be fun. Yeah, I could be down for that. Yeah, we were supposed to do that last night with some friends and we just got carried away with other stuff. Well, you know what? If it doesn't happen by then, we'll do it.

Well, no, no, no, I'm't happen by then, we'll do it.

Well, no, no, no.

I'm down.

I will abstain so we can watch it together. That sounds great. That sounds great. You guys have been, you're on kind of two opposite ends of things, but Eric, you've been doing some fun stuff lately. how has it been navigating your want to exercise versus your need to recover?

He just did three workouts today, so he's just normal. Oh, I see.

Back to normal.

I did three abbreviated versions of workouts except for swimming.

I did the actual swim set that Paula brought to the swimming pool today when we swam 4K.

Well, I swam 5K, but he swam 4K. Eric, you swam 4K without kicking. You pulled 4K. Yeah, I did. And I actually just started doing flip pairns today. They're not pretty. They're very floppy, but I did them. Yeah, wow. So you're allowed to push off the wall and everything? No, no, I just pushed off. I mean, I was like, my Achilles is pretty worked on the right leg.
