How's your temperature? Are you
00:00:01
>> I'm a little bit cold, but now that you
00:00:03
say about hypothermia, I always had um
00:00:06
whenever we're cold during a race or
00:00:08
during training,
00:00:09
I always say that cold is a mindset.
00:00:12
And um it's kind of backfired me on
00:00:15
backfired with me now because now my
00:00:17
workmates, whenever I'm out coaching in
00:00:20
the cold, they'll go to me, "Molly, you
00:00:23
can't complain you're cold. You said to
00:00:24
us that cold is a mindset." And the
00:00:27
the
00:00:28
the first thing that my workmates told
00:00:31
me when I got back from God's Zone, they
00:00:33
didn't say anything, they go,
00:00:35
"I thought you said cold is a mindset."
00:00:36
because I obviously got chopped um had
00:00:38
to pull out because of hypothermia. And
00:00:40
I said, "No." I said, "That's backfired
00:00:43
me." That's backfired that saying for
00:00:45
me.
00:00:46
>> You won't believe that.
