you've mentioned that you feel like athletes are giving up a lot to compete at this level, but to the athletes, do they feel like they're giving up a lot?
Because it's like, yeah, they're giving up time with family and friends and things like that.
But I mean, speaking from personal experience, I'm like, I don't see that as giving anything up.
It's like, I'm doing the thing that I love to do.
I'm doing it all the time and I love doing it.
It's amazing.
You know, I don't feel like I've made any sacrifices in life, though I'm sure somebody from the outside looking in would think like, wow, you've spent an inordinate amount of time doing this difficult and somewhat dangerous thing like that.
That's a big sacrifice.
But I'm like, no, this is amazing.
This is like I wouldn't want to do anything else in the day.
Yeah, because it's so freaking cool.
It's so great.
I mean, rock climbing, it's the best.
Like, why wouldn't you climb things if you can?
It's so fun.
No, I'm far too old, sadly.
No, Olympic climbing is dominated by young folks basically the same way that gymnastics is.
So the people winning are sort of 18 to 24, and I'm not 40.
So my Olympic dream sailed a long time ago.
But, I mean, if I was young enough and talented enough, it would be amazing.
