“Confidence is an action, not a feeling. That's been the biggest part of this. You know, you don't feel confident. And then go into something, you go into something, and then you gain confidence as a byproduct of consistency of hard work.”

“Understand, you know, I'm a big believer in you aren't your feelings, you're the person experiencing those feelings. So as soon as you can get them on paper, this allows you to understand them a little bit better. And also they can go, OK, that's there, have the shower, park the feelings and you can kind of move on with the day and go, right, that session was great, awesome, let's move on.”

“It's a case of durability and how long can you last for. That suits my nature quite well. So for me, it was like, finished last year, knowing I was like, okay, I believe I can do really, really well in this format and go a lot further than I did last year.”

“You often will explore certain thoughts and certain feelings that we often sometimes just trying to distract ourselves from. Especially as men, I often find it's a lot hot, a lot, this resonates more with men. It's like we do kind of bottle a lot of things up more so than women.”

“The most important part of any training block isn't the outcome, isn't the middle, the end of the finish, the marathon finish line. The most important part is who you become in that process. It is that becoming, that time where you spend 99% of your time anyway.”

“And no matter how bad I felt about myself each day, I always had the evidence there that I did something kind to myself. I took myself outside, I moved my body, I ran, even if I could run for two minutes, walk for one minute, and that was the basis of respect that I gave myself. And from that, it built forward.”

“He's looking at my form compared to a fresh form. And he's like, yeah, when you're dropping into the pace you're going to run an ultra and you're forming a technique there, there's a little bit of instability in that area we got to work on. And just finding weaknesses. And I like that.”

“I've had a fantastic attitude towards my training, my, this process of improvement, how I come about things every day, the excitement I have for training, the joy I found in training this year. And then the other side to it is effort. Am I trying as hard as I could do?”

“confidence is an action, not a feeling. That's been the biggest biggest part of this. You know, you don't feel confident and then go in something, you go in something, and then you get gain confidence as a byproduct of consistency of hard work.”

“I think the best way to understand the feelings and emotions you often get through sessions is to put it on paper because you're merely then getting out of your body, getting out of your head, separating yourself from them. I understand, you know, I'm a big believer in you aren't your feelings or the person experiencing those feelings.”

“So I'll go out and do these thirty, forty k runs, and then I'll go see my physio, get on the treadmill, and then we'd start filming my form, seeing how it's looking. Where's the weakest point in the chain of my legs? What's going first? Where's that weakness?”

“It's like you put you're basically putting yourself in such a vulnerable place physically and emotionally, you often will explore certain thoughts and certain feelings that we often sometimes just trying to distract ourselves from. Especially as men, I often find it's a lot a lot this resonates more with with, with men.”

“The most important part of any trading block isn't the the outcome, isn't the middle of the end of the finish at the marathon finish line. The most important part is who you become in that process. It's that becoming that time where you spend 99% of your time anyway. The habits, the skills, the disciplines, all of the things you're picking up and learning along the way, that's that's you becoming.”

“It's the same shoe but just by putting a heel riser in, we kinda go between two and six mil on heel risers, and also just changing your shoe profile. Sometimes you want things a bit more responsive at certain points. Sometimes you wanna go back to something that's actually a bit more, you know, comfortable and a bit more stable. Always having an option to change, I think is really important because it keeps you I think what the biggest trick with Ultras is not to spiral”

“Consistency. I wanted to really level up my consistency, with that's not, like, not just because it's of trading. It's because of everything, of of how I was showing up for the my for my work, for content, for, the business I'm involved within. Like, all that I wanted to be I I've often felt like I'm a bit peaks and trough kinda guy.”
