Yeah, that's this.

These are the rings up here.

I mean, this is what makes it exciting because you can't be sure.

But, you know, I've done a lot of climbing in my life and I've done a lot of climbs that were like 24 hours.

I mean, I had this experience in Patagonia once.

It was a 54-hour push.

Like the last 20 hours we hiked without food because we got caught in a storm.

It's a whole crazy story.

But basically, you know, I've had a lot of experiences in my life where I've done hard exercise for more than 24 hours.

And so this, you know, I expected to take me somewhere in the hour and a half, two hour range.

And I'm kind of like, yeah, I mean, I'll be tired after two hours of exercise, but I'm not going to be exhausted.

You know what I mean?

Like, I know that I have a much deeper reserve than that.

No.

No, it's obviously much easier.

I mean, I'm doing it on live television, you know, it's like, obviously it's easier.

But...

what makes it cool is that it's different.

It's fun.

It's challenging.
