Did you have enough time to process what you were doing, or did it take you a whole year and maybe some journaling, you know, maybe you were taking some notes afterwards to really pull out these life learning lessons from, from these races?
28:23
I, there's so many, so many lessons.
28:26
I, I, I...
28:28
It's just, I think it's really about creating a goal.
28:34
A goal, right? Because when, when people have a goal, it, it just makes you, I feel like you're happier because you're striving towards something.
28:45
And so a lot of people can choose a goal like a marathon or a 5K, 10K, doesn't have to be a marathon, and then they'll complete it and then they'll be like, "Oh, now what do I do?" So choosing another goal, it doesn't have to be a marathon, will, um, will bring you the joy that, that I felt during these 52 marathons.
29:07
Because imagine I had a marathon every single week for a year, and there was so much, so much, um, I guess it's dopamine.

you know,

go there.
8:05
Follow the thread.
8:06
And if it doesn't, you know, sometimes it doesn't work out.
8:09
But very often it does if it's really drawn, you know, from something that you're just super interested in, like Great Dixter.
8:15
I only ended up there because...
8:18
I was really interested in that place.
10:44
When you spent your time at Dixter, how did they teach, which I guess is more of a question of how did you absorb?
