My legs were destroyed running down that hill at Jesse's house.
Like I couldn't walk the next day and I knew it was coming.
While I was, oh my God, that race is so hard.
Running down that hill and that eccentric load on your muscles.
Yeah.
destroys my legs.
Worse than a marathon, worse than an Ironman.
I mean, you're going for three hours running up and down a hill at 18% grade.
It's like you're breaking, breaking, then like using all muscle to get up the hill.
I don't want to do it.
I'm like intimidated and
scared, but you saw the mindset that I get into is like, no, it's time to attack because you are either going to kill or be killed.
And when I get into those positions, and if anything, that's what I would say is the main overriding theme is like, you get to the point in your life where you either accept mediocrity or you realize that if I want to do hard things, guess what?
If it was easy, every asshole would have already done it.
And I want to do things that other people can't do.
And the only thing separating me, I have no natural gifts.
I mean, you saw me, you walked in, you're like, oh, you're not as big as I thought you were.
Like, I'm a very average guy.
And I know that I have nothing special except my mind.
And that's the thing is for everyone listening, it's all internal.
