00:00:00
this new fellow who joined our team,
00:00:02
first ever race, like he was amazing.
00:00:05
And
00:00:06
Sam, I don't think he'll mind me sharing
00:00:08
this, but he um he goes
00:00:11
I've got a little uh trick for, you
00:00:14
know, everyone goes through tough times
00:00:15
in adventure race, you know, you go
00:00:17
highs, lows, whatever.
00:00:18
Uh and it's your team that will help you
00:00:20
push through. And he goes,
00:00:22
"Do you guys want to hear my little my
00:00:24
little trick for if when things get
00:00:26
tough?" And everyone goes, "Oh, go on."
00:00:29
Because, you know, I race with the
00:00:30
Southlanders, like they're farmers. They
00:00:33
You know, they've never even probably
00:00:34
heard of
00:00:35
mental strength or whatever before.
00:00:37
>> [laughter]
00:00:38
>> So, Sam goes, "I've got a wee trick."
00:00:41
And he goes,
00:00:42
"When you're going through a tough time,
00:00:43
and I'm sure Dom you've, you know,
00:00:45
sometimes you're running a marathon,
00:00:46
you're like,
00:00:47
this sucks, you know?"
00:00:49
And he goes,
00:00:50
"I physically smile and think of
00:00:52
something that makes me happy."
00:00:54
And
00:00:55
and he said that it pushed him through
00:00:57
the the tough times. And so,
00:01:00
we were like, "Oh, yeah, that's a great
00:01:01
idea." And then we talked about it for
00:01:03
ages. And then Finn, who's just, you
00:01:05
know, a typical Southlander farmer,
00:01:08
couple days later he goes,
00:01:10
"Sam, I uh tried your technique, and it
00:01:13
really works." And I was like, I almost
00:01:16
wanted to cry. I was like, "Oh my gosh,
00:01:18
he these these farmers have actually got
00:01:21
emotion." I was like, "Wow."
00:01:24
>> [laughter]
00:01:25
>> And then so, now I guess it's really
00:01:28
awesome to see that our team is bonding
00:01:30
in that way, and yeah, the mental
00:01:31
strength
