Welcome as folks to this episode, Amy 4 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: and TJ here and Robes. I'm glad we started doing 5 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,639 Speaker 1: this because it is nice to take a break. But 6 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: we talk about a recovery run. We are runners and 7 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,159 Speaker 1: it means something in the running world to have a 8 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: recovery run. 9 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 2: Yes, this is something every runner, especially a long distance 10 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 2: runner does, at least we try to do. 11 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 3: It once a week. 12 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: It's a short, low intensity run and it's supposed to 13 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 2: help your body recover after all the hard workouts from 14 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 2: the week. It's meant to be easy and relaxed. It 15 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 2: shouldn't over exert the body. 16 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,600 Speaker 3: I actually love this. It's supposed to go. 17 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 2: Around twenty to thirty minutes, which is exactly what our 18 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,480 Speaker 2: podcast definitely is. 19 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: This is the recovery we need. A break is here 20 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: on the mics from what is a long, difficult, sometimes 21 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: intense week. And Robes one of the one of the 22 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: things that did lift some weight and that helped recovery 23 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: was just getting past the Didy trial. Look, yes, it 24 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 1: was a lot of work for as time wise, hours wise, 25 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: stayed up late and getting up really early, but just 26 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:17,559 Speaker 1: to not be constantly in that content, folks could avoid 27 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,839 Speaker 1: it and have to read articles, didn't have to watch TV. 28 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: We were reading so much in transcripts of that thing 29 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: that it's nice to not be reading that stuff in here. 30 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, the material was very heavy and dark and complicated, 31 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 2: and you. 32 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 3: Felt torn in a lot of ways. 33 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: So it was emotionally taxing as well. And yeah, we 34 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 2: were constantly looking for the updates and what's happening next. 35 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 2: So with that now in the rear view mirror, that 36 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: does create a huge sense of relaxation and relief in 37 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 2: that stuff. 38 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't I think sometimes I think what businesses they 39 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: talk about? I think it's was it? Firefighters? Is it? 40 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: There are certain professions, journalists among them, where people have 41 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: high rates of divorce, high rates of alcoholism, and all 42 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: these look we see and we do. We don't think 43 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: about it that much. I think, I don't think we're 44 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: desensitized to it. We don't think about it anymore. But 45 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: when you're constantly consuming, consuming negative, negative, negative, you can 46 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: go back to I mean January, we're still talking about 47 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: the fires in La. Just think about that every day. 48 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: Every day, every day we're seeing death and destruction. 49 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 2: The Texas flooding has been really hard. I have actually 50 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 2: tried to because I know, look, if we had still 51 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 2: been working at ABC, we know where we'd be. We'd 52 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 2: be in Texas and telling those stories and seeing all 53 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 2: of those children's faces and being parents and knowing that 54 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 2: we've sent our kids to summer camps for three weeks 55 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 2: at a time where they haven't had access to their phones. 56 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 2: You start thinking about all the what IFFs and what 57 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 2: could have been and you put yourself in those parents' positions, 58 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: and it's extremely heavy. 59 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 3: There can be good that comes out of it. 60 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 2: I know, having covered a lot of this, I would 61 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 2: go home and be more appreciative of my kids and 62 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: hug them more and tell them I love them. And 63 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: I now never leave the house or leave a phone 64 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 2: conversation or get on a plane without saying I love 65 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 2: you because of all the things we cover. But yeah, 66 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 2: it is heavy, that's hard. 67 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: And again we do recovery runs because we come on 68 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: we want to. We talk about the things that that 69 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 1: we do like we're conscious of doing, to help us 70 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: calm down, to help us being better physical and mental health. 71 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: This was one we had nothing to do with, but 72 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: it came about and we appreciate it. One for me 73 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: that's always a big deal is music. We talked about 74 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: it this morning, well one day this morning on the 75 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: morning run about Justin Bieber's new album. His new album 76 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: came out and we had it on while we were 77 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: working and it was just too mellow of the Viye. 78 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: This is not a knock against just he was just 79 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: putting out a different type of album. It's a little darker, 80 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: more poignant stuff, and we had to turn off because 81 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: we need music. 82 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 3: You put Carly Rae Jepson on. 83 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: No, that's all No. I came out from the bathroom 84 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: and we were dancing at the table to that. I 85 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: didn't put that, but we had and we had to 86 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: put an upbeat, a fun playlist on. And music is 87 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: healing everything. It is everything to me. But I fell 88 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: into this thing where I was listening to a lot 89 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: of rap music that had choirs in it. For whatever reason, 90 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,799 Speaker 1: that was my thing. Listen going to church. J Cole Common, 91 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: a boy out of Chicago, Chance the rapper. I don't 92 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: know why I got onto a kick and I had 93 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: a whole playlist going of that music, and it felt 94 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: great to me. So whatever your thing might be, music 95 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: is always something, And probably every week I have a 96 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: new genre or a new thing subgenre of music I 97 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: just fall into. And that was great for me this week. 98 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 2: When I run next to you, you're going at it 99 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 2: like it's so cute. 100 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 3: I think it's so sweet. 101 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 2: I can hear you even through my music sometimes, especially 102 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 2: when I'm listening to an audiobook, I can hear you 103 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 2: singing along and getting all into the music. It's it's 104 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 2: I love it. I think that's no, that's so sexy. 105 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: It's one of my favorite things about you. I love 106 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: that you just get into it and you're in the moment. 107 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 2: You're not thinking about what you have to do later 108 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 2: today or all the stuff we just talked about, all 109 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: the heavy, heavy news. You are in the moment and 110 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 2: just it's pure joy. 111 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: It sounds embarrassing, No, it's it's it's subtle, but it's cute. 112 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 2: It's I really really like that. I love how much 113 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 2: you love music because it does it is transforming. We 114 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 2: always have music playing music always For me. I have 115 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: really been getting into Gabby Bernstein's new book Self Help. 116 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 3: It's funny. 117 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 2: The title says it all, but it really is about 118 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 2: helping yourself and finding this. It's a very specific way 119 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 2: of going into why you do what you do, understanding 120 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: why you do it, and then doing better. So when 121 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: I run, especially a longer run, I do love listening 122 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: to my self help books where I'm making my mind 123 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 2: better along with my body. Everything is getting stronger and 124 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 2: I feel empowered. It just gives me tools to get 125 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 2: through the day better. 126 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 3: And to be a better humane self help. 127 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 2: Yes, so I've been listening to that on some of 128 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: my long runs, which I appreciate. 129 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: See, I don't know how you do that. I cannot 130 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: listen to. The only thing I can listen to is 131 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: stand up comedy. But I cannot listen to a book 132 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: or a show. When I run, I gotta be going. 133 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,799 Speaker 3: I'm actually now So now our runs are getting longer. 134 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 2: We're training for the Stockholm Half Marathon at the end 135 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 2: of August.

I don't take 140 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 2: the time to make playlists. I wish I was like 141 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 2: that you send me.

You know 172 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: what this is. It's titled that because it includes a 173 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: track from ice Cube, which was a dis track that 174 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: he did back in the early nineties, I think. And 175 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: so the whole playlist is just dis tracks from rappers 176 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: over the years. That's my disk track playlist. See I'm 177 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: very specific. This is why I don't have any issues running. 178 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 3: But oh my everything to me. 179 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: We talked earlier as well. Something we did. We did 180 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: get out of town with the girls for vacation at 181 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: a beach for a little while in Turks. We could 182 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: say that I think we went Turks. There were a 183 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: particular highlight of Turks for us every time we go. 184 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: We don't have a pet here in New York, but 185 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: we have one in Turks. We love this cat. 186 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 2: This cat we've named Oreo, but we found out that 187 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 2: she has multiple names from what. 188 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 1: Are sam is I think what the. 189 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 3: Sam Chloe was another name. 190 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 2: Bread. That's ridiculous, that's a silly She's she's Oreo and 191 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: always will be to us. But we are able to 192 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: go back and she finds us every time, and she 193 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: has really been a huge part of our weeks there, 194 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 2: and she's she just makes us happy. 195 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: We can't downplay this. This is a I mean, look, 196 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: they say animals all the time, there are the therapy 197 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: animals or whatever, and the hell people take them to 198 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: schools or take them to places where people have had tragedies, 199 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 1: and animals do this for us and it changes everything. 200 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: I think we took more pictures of that cat than 201 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: we did of ourselves and our kids. We were on 202 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: that trip. 203 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 3: Qu cheese. 204 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 2: Look how sweet she is, and she's the friendliest cat. 205 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 2: Like obviously cats get a bad rap for making you 206 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 2: come to them. She comes to us. She comes and 207 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: snuggles up next to us, and. 208 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 3: It's just it just brings you peace. I love it. 209 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: We enjoy the highlight. That Oriole is always a highlight, 210 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: but one of the highlights. And I can say this 211 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: now we're not revealing anything, but there was a point. Look, 212 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: I think everybody knows you're not a huge sports fan. 213 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: You keep up. You love college football. I love college 214 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 1: love college football. But we're at the spot there in 215 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: Turks and we're hanging out folks and by the pool. 216 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: We were in a cabana kind of a thing, and 217 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: somebody just strolls right by and you can't see them 218 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: that long because we're in a cabana. We have a 219 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: full view. So it goes by and only see him 220 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: for a split second or two. And I tap your daughter, Analise, 221 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: who is a University of Colorado's student, and I said, yo, 222 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 1: see who that was? She said, no, who was it? 223 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: And it was none other than number one overall NFL 224 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: draft pick and Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter. She goes crazy, 225 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 1: Robot says who she thinks it shador Sanda's just walk Colorado. 226 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 3: I knew, I knew who that was. 227 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: So it doesn't in there. This was really hilarious to me, 228 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: and maybe we should post this picture like, yeah, we 229 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: did have it. But the girls are in the pool 230 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: in the ocean later just kind of what we're all doing, 231 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: just having your drinks, standing around, just enjoying the water. 232 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, we were just cooling off. 233 00:10:57,960 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: It was hot so I stay on the beach, I 234 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: stay out of the water. 235 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,839 Speaker 3: You're not a beach or not an ocean guy. 236 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 1: So I'm taking a picture of a robot. She's looking 237 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: back at me. The girls are all kind of around, 238 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: and I have this great shot of someone snorkeling, not 239 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: in our group, just another person snorkeling literally three feet 240 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: maybe from rodes and I'm trying to point, trying to 241 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: get it. Never sees it. They get out of the water. Later, 242 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: I said, Babe, did you see the Heisman Trophy winner 243 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: number one overall draft pick just almost literally swam up 244 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: your butt and you didn't even turn around. 245 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 3: I had no clue thats who that was. I'm like, 246 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 3: that's who that was. 247 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 2: I saw the couple snorkeling, I didn't know it was them. 248 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: See this is funny to me. You know how many 249 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: people in the world want access to this kid, to 250 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 1: have a moment with him, a picture, a sofie, an autograph, 251 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: a conversation. You were snorkling. 252 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 2: I was enjoying the surf and the sand in the 253 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 2: sun with the Heisman winner and didn't even know. 254 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: Oh, we gotta post that picture out. 255 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 2: That's funny, all right, We will well and oh and 256 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 2: something else. Oh, this was something that I actually felt 257 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 2: like was a good moment for me. It's about recovery. 258 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 2: It's about recognizing your body, recognizing when you're pushing yourself 259 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 2: too hard. Don't I don't think any runner likes to quit. 260 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 2: I don't like to quit. But I have to say, 261 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 2: did I mention how hot it was in Turks? It was, Yeah, 262 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 2: it never got out of the eighties and high humidity, 263 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 2: and that's not my jam so much when we're running. 264 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 3: So we got up. 265 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,959 Speaker 2: I mean we were running at like six forty five 266 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 2: in the morning, correct, But we had a six miler 267 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 2: that we had to do for our training run. And 268 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 2: I was pushing myself. By two miles, I knew I was. 269 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: My face was red, I was feeling hot and dizzy. 270 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: I'll give you this. The entire three miles was going 271 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: in one direction, directly towards the sun with no shade, for. 272 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 2: It was punishing. So I turned around and you had 273 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 2: gotten ahead of me, and I said, just go, go go. 274 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 2: I'm going to be slower. I had to take some 275 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 2: walking breaks, which I again am not proud of, and 276 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,599 Speaker 2: I finally got to five point three seven miles and 277 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 2: you had texted me like you were almost back to 278 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 2: the car, and I just said, babe, I have to 279 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:22,199 Speaker 2: call it. 280 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 3: Can you just please come pick me up? Have I 281 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 3: ever said that to you? 282 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 1: Well, you rarely have the luxury of having me come 283 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: pick you up. 284 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 3: Right, we don't have a car. That is so true. 285 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,199 Speaker 2: But I made a decision, and I felt like this 286 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 2: was actually a smart decision. I felt dizzy, I felt dehydrated, 287 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 2: I felt overheated, and. 288 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 3: I thought, what am I trying to prove? Who am 289 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 3: I trying to prove this to. 290 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 2: I don't need to run this extra point six three 291 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: miles to say I did the six mile and check 292 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 2: it off. I can say right now, my body is 293 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 2: telling me to stop, and that's what I did. And 294 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 2: I have to tell you I grappled with it, and 295 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 2: it's embarrassing to me. They want to have to text you. 296 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 2: I felt weak, I felt and I looked back at 297 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: it and said, no, that was strength, that was me 298 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 2: being that was me being smart. 299 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: And so it's okay. You give yourself. You got to 300 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: give yourself greates before you do it to anybody else. 301 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: I'll say that to everybody else, but I won't do 302 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 2: it for myself, and so I actually had to look 303 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 2: back at it reflectively and say, you know what, I'm 304 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 2: proud of myself for saying, uncle, I need to stop 305 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 2: right now, and I did. 306 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: That was an extreme day. And what did I you 307 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: said your word and embarrassing, and what did I say 308 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: to you when I picked you up? You didn't hear 309 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: me say, oh, actually I thought you Yeah, you were great. 310 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 3: And then and then you had to pull over. 311 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you didn't have to add that extra part. 312 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: We were ending on a high note. That was yes, okay, 313 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: oh yes, fine, we had to pull over. 314 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 2: She had to up chuck well, and so that was 315 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 2: also my point, like see, my body was telling me stop. 316 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 2: So that was like for me, that was confirmation I 317 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 2: did the right thing. Throwing up told me way to go, Amy, 318 00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 2: you made a good choice. Okay. 319 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: The last thing on the Turks on the Turk trip, 320 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: it's it's a weird one dimension, but it gave us 321 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: so much joy and so much calm. It actually occupied 322 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: so much of our time. But it was the oddest 323 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: thing that you would never really think of. 324 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 2: But this, to me is a lesson when you're wherever 325 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 2: you are in the world, but when you're out in nature, 326 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: watch nature. 327 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 3: It was better. 328 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 2: We'll tell you what we were doing. It was better 329 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 2: than any Netflix series. It was better than any like 330 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 2: Beach Read that I could have had in my hand. 331 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 2: We ended up poolside watching a show of seagulls. Can 332 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 2: you explain we were I had not seen this before, 333 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 2: but there was a line of unending seagulls that were 334 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: managing people who were in the pool. But they were 335 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 2: coming down one by one and skimming the water and 336 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 2: trying to drink from the pool, like getting some water 337 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 2: in their mouths. Some were really adept and good at it, 338 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 2: and some were terrible at it. We watched one seagull 339 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 2: make eight attempts and could not get water in his mouth. 340 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 2: We were laughing so hard. It was like a comedy 341 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 2: and a drama all in one, provided by nature. 342 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever you know, we ended 343 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: up Maybe our minds were in the right mindset to 344 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: where we weren't thinking about work at the time. We're done, 345 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: But that was such an important lesson. I still do things. 346 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: Stop and we say smell the roses, but you miss 347 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: so much that's right in front of you because you're 348 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: looking down on your phone. You're walking down the street 349 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: focused on something else, and maybe the love of your 350 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: life might be walking right by and you didn't even 351 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: lay eyes on her because you're focused on something else. 352 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: That was That day was the highlight of a seven 353 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: day trip when we decided to do nothing. We just 354 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: went me, you and Sabine. 355 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 3: Was that a book? 356 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: There was no book, There was no music, There was 357 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 1: no nothing but us laying on beach chairs watching seagulls 358 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: do circles NonStop. You know what. It almost reminds you 359 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: of an airport. They kept circling around, circling around. Then 360 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: they come down and try to land, which was essentially 361 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 1: get water, which was a precision operation. You're flying, you 362 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: gotta get just low enough to get the water. You 363 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: can't be too high to miss it, but if you 364 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: go too low you might your head. 365 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 2: It was funny, and we watched these seagulls all take 366 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 2: different it's so weird, different choices, and it was so funny. 367 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 3: I couldn't believe. 368 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 2: But how long did we sit there and watch seagulls 369 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 2: try to drink water out of a pool. 370 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: This sounds so silly, but it was absolutely a wonderful, 371 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: just separation of the real world, if you will, or 372 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: excuse me, our perceived world, right, all these things we 373 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: think are so important and we're stressed about. We stopped 374 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: stressing and just enjoyed what was in front of us 375 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: for a moment. And ain't that the trick? 376 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 3: That was the most relaxed I felt. And it continued. 377 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 2: This year but after that day and we kept laughing 378 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 2: at ourselves. Did we actually just spend two hours watching seagulls? 379 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 2: But it was one of my favorite moments of the 380 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 2: entire trip. And it's a lesson, Like you said, I 381 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 2: actually believe. I said, if someone took a video of this, 382 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 2: and you know how people put yulog or whatever up 383 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: on their TV, I would have that video because it 384 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 2: just made me feel so relaxed and just it's recognizing 385 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 2: also what we all get hung up on and what 386 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 2: we worry about. The nature continues, this world goes on, 387 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 2: and there's so many beautiful things to recognize, and we're 388 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 2: also distracted. 389 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 3: It was just such a great lesson. 390 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 1: I got a weird comparison. They talk about these dopamine 391 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:50,199 Speaker 1: hits kids get. I'm seeing sabine on TikTok so much 392 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: just looking down trying to scroll through these videos and whatnot, 393 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: and that one's fifteen seconds. Then there's the next one. 394 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 1: I got my hit all that. You know what, these 395 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 1: these birds kept a drama going because each one was unique. 396 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: Oh he missed it all, Let's go to the next guy. 397 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: It felt like we were watching some social media video 398 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: that all he got on going to the next one. 399 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: I was kept getting fulfilled, and we kept getting satisfied 400 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: by each one, and each one was different. That was 401 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: our TikTok. 402 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 3: I was getting excited, like, what's this one gonna do? 403 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: The one guy that did around did eight passes. We 404 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: kept here it comes again. 405 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 3: He was he was our favorite one, and then he 406 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 3: never got it. He finally he took. 407 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: Yeah he's a quitter.
