Ep. 188: What Makes an Endurance Athlete? (w/ Dr. Chelsea Wooding & Dr. Jason Cowell)

Was there a part, though, where it wasn't feeling so great? Because right now you're giving me all positive vibes.

Oh, you know, the endorphins.

It's all positive after, right? Yeah.

We did it.

There was no bad moment.

Many bad moments for me.

My knees were rough, probably mile 10 to mile 25-ish.

They were tough.

And then they got great.

And then right about mile 65, they started hurting pretty bad.

And my last 10 were quite painful.

I don't know that it was wise that I finished.

But at mile 92, I was finishing that ride.

And then there was also a point, Jason probably knows better language than I do for this, there was a very long climb.

Had to have been at least two miles of climb.

And not crazy steep, but just consistent.

And right at that moment, the headwind hit hard.

Where it just felt like, I felt like I was working so hard and I wasn't moving.

And that was one of those moments, it was maybe 60 miles in? Yeah, it was

just before that 60-ish stop.

Yeah.

And so you're over halfway, but you still have so much further to go.

And that was, I think, one of the very few moments I went, I don't know if I'm going to make this.

Those were the ones for

me.
