And, you know, I was going 40 miles an hour downhill and then I was falling asleep and went to the side of the road and fell.
The bike went in the air, you know, shoulder messed up, back messed up, bike messed up.
I felt like I had 10 really bad crashes.
And, you know, you just... How do you keep on going when you have all these crashes?
Yeah.
Because when you don't have quitting as an option, you just get up and keep going.
And this is the most beautiful analogy.
Like if you stop pedaling, you're done.
That's it.
You're done.
So you got to keep moving.
And for me, the hardest part of the race, it was on the second day.
I remember I was looking at this Garmin device on my bike and it said 130 degrees.
I was melting and I was literally suffocated.
I was cramping.
My feet were starting to be super swollen.
I started to lose the sense of it.
Like I started to get numb.
And I'm like, how am I going to keep going for 10 more days?
And it felt so heavy.
