- Your face there went from,
"Answer my question--" - Yeah, that was like almost--
- Into like, "Whoa."
- It's getting really dodgy here.
(upbeat music)
- Why don't we start by introducing the opposition?
So we have team Metzlemour?
- Metzlemour. - Yeah, you got it.
- We go by Metzlemour. - That's it.
- But I'm Jeanni Seymour. - I'm Justin Metzler.
- Aspiring Jenga champions of March first, 2018.
- Yeah, little do you know I'm actually better
at Jenga than I am triathlon.
- Really, 'kay. - And Jeanni's great, too.
So Metzlemour's coming out guns blazing, as you like to say.
- Okay, well, I'm not good at triathlon or Jenga,
so this should be fun. (laughing)
- Let's do it. - Okay.
- Oh, we got a question. - Oh, I got it.
- Starting it off with a question too.
- Oh, this, this was Sarah's, wasn't it?
"How many atoms are in a pencil eraser?"
- You pulled it, you gotta answer it.
- Wow, I'd have no idea.
- If you get it within a trillion I'd be very impressed.
- Within a trillion?
That's a lot of trillions.
A hundred million trillion.
- Pretty good. - Yeah.
- Yeah, but you're not within a trillion.
Several hundred billion trillion, apparently.
- Wow. - Yeah.
So explain how the training camp
has gone for the two of you.
- I think it's gone really well.
Like Jeanni and I sort of game-planned our camp experience.
And like--
- I haven't heard of anyone planning out a camp.
- Yeah, well that's-- - Explain, I'm intrigued.
- Well, that's part of the benefit
of us being a pair and a team.
So we can sort of feed off each other.
And there's only 14 athletes here at the camp.
But Jeanni and I have the privilege
of sort of being together
and feeding off each other's energy and making sure
that we're doing the right things, day in, day out.
So our goal was to be the most consistent every day.
So I don't think we've knocked out
any particular session out of the park,
but Jesse always tells us and tries to slam into our heads
that consistency over time breeds results.
And I think Jeanni and I show that in our everyday life,
and we just wanted to bring that to the camp.
- Oh, so like-- - Yeah, I think it was
just really important for us to realize
that the first few days, coming into the heat and humidity,
are super-tough, right? - Yeah.
- Especially like, we came from snow,
and we just knew things were gonna feel a bit rough.
So no matter what, we decided,
get the legs turning and kind of settle into the heat,
you know, before we can open up and go hard.
So yeah. - Where are you coming from?
Where were you guys? - Boulder, Colorado.
- Oh yeah, you're based in Boulder, right.
- And it was funny, like last week was--
- It's been cold there. - Oh yeah.
- It gets very cold there. Last week was probably
the worst week, so I'm so glad we came here.
- I've only done one training camp,
and it was myself and a coach and that was it.
And it was more like a vacation at the lake
where he turned it into a training camp.
But I've never been surrounded by
12 other talented athletes.
So is it easy to come here and have a day where you
build more motivation than your body's ready for?
- I think that's the biggest thing
you gotta watch out for at a camp
is that you gotta know when to listen to your body.
And I think that's what we want to do better this year,
is when we're not feeling good, it's okay
to just go more steady and just get through the session.
But then at camp it's hard because there's people
competing at sessions sometimes.
And you've gotta just shut things down and be okay
with people maybe being far ahead of you in a session,
and just being like, your run is in different spots,
everyone feels different,
but you just gotta follow your own program, I guess.
- I'm just trying to show what my definition of pro is.
And I've been a pro, this is my fifth year as a pro.
So I'm just trying to come here,
and hopefully people are looking at us and saying,
"Hey, look, they're nailing most of the sessions.
"And maybe I should try and do
"a little bit of what they do."
So yeah, we're just trying to show our pro-ness.
- Pro-ness? - Yeah.
Oh gosh, this thing's already getting a little top-heavy.
- I know. - Yep.
- I'm going right here.
- Oh. - Bold move.
- I don't like it, I don't like it,
I don't like it, I don't like it.
- You sounded so much more confident eight seconds ago.
- All right, all right, no, we're good.
We're good, don't worry. - Okay.
- There it is. - Were you both at Austin?
Oh, you were? - Yes.
- Yep. - Yeah?
- Yeah. - Freezing.
- How'd you like that day? - I didn't.
And I was so silly.
- I raced that. - Oh yeah?
- I didn't put on any layers,
so that was kind of a mistake.
I was almost hypothermic on the bike.
So I was unhappy.
- I'm a Challenge Iceland champion, so I loved it.
- Yeah, not even Iceland was that cold though.
- No, it was freezing.
Going with the back side pull.
- Yeah, that's bold. - That's a bold move.
- I don't know if I can suffer two losses in a day.
- Taren's gonna have to fly out
immediately if he loses his battle.
- I'm done, yeah, I'm done.
- Back to Canada, on home turf.
- Shut down the YouTube channel, this is it.
- I like this one here.
Like in theory, this one makes sense.
- Oh yeah? - But he's not stoked
He's not keen. - Yeah, he's not ready.
- I talked to the guy that, I think he finished third,
overall amateur, he showed up on the podcast
couple weeks after, two weeks after Austin.
And he said he was still banged up from that day.
- You know what, for about a week after Austin,
my legs were absolutely trashed, like my feet and stuff.
I ran real fast there. (cheering)
- That's right, that's Jasper Stevenson.
and Justin Metzler.
- But I don't know what was up.
It was just, I think, one of those days.
Oh, come on, dude. (whistling)
'Cause I was racing in China.
- Whoa. (laughing)
- Yeah, I was racing in China, 13 days after Austin.
And I was wrecked for like a week.
- Yeah, I think everyone got a bit beat up from that one.
- 'Kay, I'm gonna do this like a tablecloth.
- Oh! - Oh, that was smooth.
- It's obviously not his first Jenga.
- Yeah, obviously.
- So first races are Oceanside?
- We've already done our first race.
- When? Oh yeah, you won one, yeah.
- Yeah, that was rough.
- Couldn't have been too rough.
- Yeah, well racing that early
is a really risky thing to do, but it was fun.
- Jeanni wasn't planning on racing at all,
but it was an opportunity for her to go back and--
- Yeah, we were still in base training.
I was in the gym like three times a week,
and Jason only gave me a little bit
of speed before that race,
so our real season only starts in April.
So we'll both be doing Oceanside,
obviously, more competitive.
And this camp's gonna get us fit, so we'll be ready.
- I'm actually flying right
from Oceanside to Liuzhou in China.
I'm famous in China, so I tend to go back over there.
- Well, you're like twice their size.
- I know.
Well, it's funny, like Jeanni and I
will be doing our pre-race sessions,
like running up and down the promenades and whatever,
and you've got this six foot five, tall, huge guy
and then this little blonde girl.
Like people are looking, they're taking selfies with us,
running along, it's crazy, just six o'clock in the morning.
So it's a good time, going over there.
- I really shouldn't have done what I did two moves ago.
- Taren's under pressure now. (laughing)
- No, I don't think this is smart.
This way, however, might be
the smartest thing I've ever done.
- The pull-through. - It's so unending.
- Solid, that's solid work right there.
- There we go. - I have a question.
- Oh, that there.
- How many gold medals did Great Britain win at London 2012?
- Okay. - Oh, wow.
- Summer Games, they got two with the Brownlee brothers.
I know that. - I know that, gold medals.
- Okay, gold. - Gold.
- Okay, I see, so they got one with the Brownlees.
I'm gonna guess, I'm gonna guess 14.
- Mel's the fact-checker. - 29.
- 29? - Wow, 29 golds.
- That's really good. - That's very impressive.
- I know, right? - That was very impressive.
- Yeah.
- The thing with the golds, especially in the Olympics,
like I don't think about it, but in like, swimming--
- Swimming.
- You can win so many medals. - That's right.
- Or something like track and field.
Like there's so many events.
Like you can just keep getting them.
- I'm gonna open myself up to absolute internet hatred,
and say that I disagree with
the amount of medals in swimming.
I disagree with the amount of events.
- Yeah.
- Because it's a lot of the same athletes
that win multiple medals. - Right.
- So I don't think that it tests a different skill.
- I agree 100%.
And I get a little bit frustrated.
I know triathlon isn't on the same level
as swimming or track and field,
in terms of global participation or popularity,
but I do think, some point down the road,
and I think in our careers,
Ironman triathlon might be in the Olympics.
- That would be awesome. - And I would love that.
And I don't think it should be, I shouldn't say Ironman,
I should say longest. - Longest, yeah.
- Since I think it should be the ITU long course distances.
- ITU long course, okay.
- So 4K swim, what is that, 120K?
- But non-drop, yeah, the non-drop.
- 120, 120. - 120K.
- Yeah, that would be the 120K bike
and then 30K run. - 30K run.
- Everyone always asks me,
"Oh, you're a professional triathlete.
"Are you gonna go to the Olympics,
"or have you done Ironman?"
Those are the only two questions I get asked.
I'm doing my first Ironman this year
so maybe I can tick that one off the box.
But I'd love to say, as an athlete
who specialized in long course at a young age
and never really went down ITU pipeline,
it'd be great to have the opportunity
to race for an Olympic medal.
And I think that would elevate
the long course triathlon to such a huge extent.
'Cause then you'd get kids coming
into long course a little bit sooner.
And everyone's like-- - I think so too.
- "Oh, you gotta race ITU to get the speed first."
I'm like, "Look, man, the game's changing."
We got a little tilt there, Eiffel-tower style.
(laughing)
- Oh man. - Yikes.
- I need a stable block up top really quickly there.
- Yeah. - Long course.
Long course in the Olympics, I've never thought of that.
I think that would open it up,
because I find that short course
is so tip-of-the-spear with speed,
it limits it to an age range
and an aerobic max that kind of takes the stories
of Sarah Crowley, Laura Siddall,
that are really talented athletes
that can make a go of it in long course.
How would that play? - Look at this block.
- Whoa. (laughing)
- Yeah, I totally agree.
- Yeah, like you basically gotta be
an ITU development athlete for your entire life
since you were 15, or you're not going to the Olympics.
- Well, the crazy thing is,
I was telling you this story earlier,
I was saying I was even in the USA triathlon
elite developmental program as a kid, as a junior.
And they just said I didn't have it cut out for me.
And I know from my physiology now
that I am naturally more suited to long course.
But there really should be two disciplines
for the people who are a super-short mixed-relay athlete,
people who are an ITU athlete,
and then people like me or Jeanni
who are long-course athletes who chose that
or are physiologically more predisposed
to that success in that area.
I think that can be a thing down the road.
- I like that, 'cause it does test a different skill.
- Oh, baby. - Ooh.
- Oh, baby, see, now the stacked one,
can I put it on this side?
Is that cool or do I have to go in the middle?
- You know what, let's do it.
Let's say, let's say there are no rules.
- Because otherwise we're gonna have a problem.
- You would've had a problem. - Yeah, yeah.
- I would've been perfectly fine with it.
- No, Metzlemour would've had a problem.
(laughing)
I gotta look out for us.
- I don't know if you guys can tell from any of your angles
how much it's been leaning towards Taren.
- Oh yeah, it's gotten-- - Really?
- That's why I put this block on this side.
- Oh yeah, yeah.
- This is like looking at your own death.
- It is, I don't feel good about any of these.
- Get it, you're gonna get it.
- I'll get it out.
But, oh! (shouting)
- Thank you. - Does that count?
- I don't know, he's gotta get it out that way.
- It's gotta stay like this for 10 seconds.
- Okay.
- We're not touching this thing for 10 seconds.
Hands off here. - Yeah.
(blocks falling) (laughing)
- Yay! - Yes!
- Good game, good game.
- Nice job, Yasmin. - Good game.
- Taken down by Metzlemour. - Yeah.
- I mean, it's really challenging to beat Metzlemour.
Maybe you'll try again. - I know.
You gotta choose your block and your question wisely.
- Let's do like, how many hours on average do you sleep
or something, let's keep it like that.
- I like that.
- All right, all right, that is a very specific question.
You guys have to remember how many hours
on average does Metzlemour sleep.
- That's what I'm saying. (laughing)
- I like it. - I don't know.
- So thank you for letting us stick cameras in your faces
while you suffer through training camp.
If you want to tell everyone
where they can find Metzlemour on social media.
- I'll be on Facebook, I have an athlete page
at Jeanni Seymour Professional Triathlete.
Twitter, @jeanniseymour and Instagram @jeanniseymour.
- Best to find me on the 'gram, bigmetztri.
- I like that. - For the gun show, yeah.
- That'll take you anywhere you want to go.
- I was so proud of that Instagram story yesterday.
- Yeah, you know what people-- - Sun's out, guns out.
- People are giving me a lot of the crap
for the cutting the jersey. - Really?
- But we brought down like five kits, and Jeanni said,
"You're only allowed to cut two of them."
She said, "I'm not letting you cut any more of them."
- You have a wicked good tan line.
- I know, it's gonna be great. - Yeah.
- You can already see it, it's coming in nice and smooth.
I kind of messed up one of the arms.
I don't know if you saw that yesterday
where the back's all messed up.
- No, it looked crisp. - No.
- I didn't even think that it was cut.
- Someone thought that it was a sleeveless jersey.
- That was what I thought.
- Kind of cut and all that.
You had this little flap.
- I chopped them off like 15 seconds
before we rolled out one day,
and I was like, this is gonna be sweet.
This is-- - Breezy.
- This is happening, deal with it.
