00:00:00
Got hype. Have you heard of
00:00:01
hypernatremia?
00:00:02
>> No, what's that?
00:00:02
>> Uh it's basically where
00:00:05
you lose all the electrolytes in your
00:00:07
body. So, you end up um you can't eat,
00:00:10
you can't drink, you're feeling sick,
00:00:13
you're your whole just your blood is
00:00:16
basically just like you can die. Uh it's
00:00:19
you start having seizures. Like I was at
00:00:22
the point of
00:00:23
I need to pull out right now and of the
00:00:26
race and I remember the first stage was
00:00:29
a 55k trail run along the sand dunes and
00:00:33
I just remember feeling like so so
00:00:37
horrible and then we went into this big
00:00:39
massive bike ride through the night and
00:00:41
I remember getting It was about 3:00 the
00:00:43
next day
00:00:45
and I
00:00:46
I hadn't eaten anything the whole day.
00:00:48
Like I think I'd eaten half a muesli bar
00:00:50
in about 48 hours.
00:00:52
Drunk nothing and I I was
00:00:55
Yeah, the the doctors on the course was
00:00:57
like you need to pull out and I was like
00:01:00
I'm I'm I'm not doing that. So, I
00:01:02
remember
00:01:03
I never ever drink fizzy drinks, but
00:01:06
they gave me a can of Coke and it
00:01:08
literally brought me back to life. I
00:01:11
They said that you have to sit there for
00:01:12
a few hours and whatever. So, anyway,
00:01:15
ended up drinking that and sure enough I
00:01:18
I say that the Coke is the lifesaver
00:01:20
drink and it sure is. Like it brings you
00:01:22
back to life. And um
00:01:24
>> [laughter]
00:01:25
>> only during a race. Like it's bad for
00:01:26
you obviously when you just drinking it
00:01:28
every day, but
00:01:30
it bring me back to life and yeah. So,
00:01:32
