Key Takeaway

Start a sustainable daily practice by making it pressure-free, achievable, and enjoyable. Hellah Sidibe began his running streak with just 10 minutes a day—not an intimidating performance target—and increased only after the habit became satisfying. Today, choose one movement practice you genuinely like, set a minimum so small you can do it even on a hard day, and protect recovery by scaling back or seeking help when pain appears.

Episode Overview

Hellah Sidibe reflects on 3,349 consecutive days of running, the mindset that has sustained nearly a decade of consistency, and the recovery practices that keep the streak from becoming an ego project. He and Rich Roll also discuss gratitude, mental health, relationships, creating joy with other people, and using self-talk and small actions to build a more hopeful life.

I ran today. in the morning. This is day 3349. consecutive runs. HellahGood—a YouTuber from New York Jersey. Known as HellahGood among their own huge subscribers on YouTube. Running from Los Angeles to New York in just 84 days. My main rule for a series of runs— it should be on the street, regardless of circumstances. Running the track does not count. I ran 2 miles on streets when I had surgery on oral cavity, implantation and tooth extraction wisdom at the same time. So, within 1 mile my mouth was full blood.

When I left to Australia in 2019 year, I accomplished four flights to save your series. When do you start? to tell your brain: "I am enough" good", after all, you you will prove to yourself that you had radio. What do you think? most wrong people understand about you, this series jogging and what Are you doing? Okay, so everyone. Your favorite runner- influencer here. The guy who ran across America. The guy who already nine years in a row running, Hella himself Sidibe, at home. As How are you, friend?

Thank you. Thank you for yours. good word. I am glad. return. It's over. almost five years with at that time. How am I? I checked. checked the date. It it was July 2021, when did you participate in show. So much for everything need to make up for it. Your running streak continues. Are you okay? you look. How are you? always, a smile on face. You are also great. you look. Yes, thank you, friend. You look great. Nice to see you. How are you doing? What is happening?

IN I find everything incredible. This is all I can do. to say, because I am everything I'm still doing that. I love, namely running. AND there is nothing to this complicated. Sometimes you Are you thinking about how you can look at the future, and then you imagine the future, but most important for I was what I was wanted to continue run forever, and we all still here in five years, and that's why I don't I can complain. So, in May turns 9 years old, and you are already 9.

Yes, and I ran for 9 years , so you're already 10. I am already 10. Next year will be decades. Incredible. So, How many days is it? Today I ran. in the morning. This is day 3349 in a row. And therefore, to while we let's run another seven 365 days, it will be over 3700 or 800. Yes. Well, 10 years, right? it won't be, uh, 3650 days? Yes, I think that's it. exactly what if I don't I'm wrong. I mean, I I can do something about it.

like mathematics. 365* 10. That's right. Or there is someday, I know the answer to this, but I I want to hear how you are. Say it out loud. What you do when wake up and you just don't want to to do this? IN I've never been like this. was. You see, in me too never There was no such thing. 100% Th. I tell you, not in the last 9 years there was no day that you woke up and didn't Did you want to run? No, never like that.

was. So what are you doing, what are you How are you doing? This is what happens. Okay, there was a time when I was injured or The injury didn't let me. peace, and I hated I ran because I like it. it hurts. I couldn't to enjoy that what running gives me, because You're just in pain. When you are in pain, your mind addresses pain, and I can't even enjoy landscapes. When I I run, I dream. So I am with I am looking forward to it. every run, because I am talking to myself.

yourself. I asked before. my grandfather, I I asked my friend earlier. Dad: "So why grandpa?" always talks to himself with you? He is what, gone crazy? Because he just sits and "mumbles." And now I I catch myself doing that. I am talking to myself. yourself. So, when I I run, I talk. alone with yourself. I am dreaming. I I pretend to participate in races. I pretend that I imagine how mine will look like the future, or what will happen when I I will return home, or what am I going to do , or when I'm angry, I I am talking to myself.

yourself, so as not to think about this. I'm looking at life differently, so that not to feel like this same when I get back home. Therefore, I am with I am looking forward to it. those moments when I'm running. And when do I I don't think so. I'm running, something's wrong. So we came up with this deadline, and you are the first you will hear it in Ritual podcast. I mentioned this in to each other podcasts, but no one never heard of it, and I'm patenting this word.

You know, you're hungry, I I am angry. So you're angry, if I don't run. Ago that I don't even know, that I'm angry until Lex will call me. She will say: "You today "ran?" And I say: " You know what? Me today "didn't run." And she says: "Go run." AND as soon as I step out street, I just I feel like this. cheerful as a child, and I'm coming home from completely different energy. It's hard for me to imagine how You are angry. And then anger does not as bad as you think .

I'm just in a bad mood. mood. I just I look like I'm in I have no energy. I quiet. As if with me something is wrong and I don't I know exactly what. This is not it. so that I can be evil, screaming, angry. Something this is my mood such...It's not fascinating. I just too quiet, and I never is never quiet. AND positivity flows from every pore of yours body. Thank you. It's always you. was like this? You born like this, or this is something that has developed and evolved?

I was definitely born for a scenario where this happened in my life , and then it improved when I got older, started to see life in a to another. So where I am grew up in Mali, West Africa, in we are not much no, and one of the things, which I immediately understood when he returned home when he became older, that's what I saw these children who played with these pieces of stick. I stop talking about it to speak before when they were like that happy, and I asked one of them: "What is this?", and they answered: " "It's a toy." They called a toy, but in my eyes it was a piece of stick.

They imagined what it was like, and I started thinking about yourself: "Wow, this madness. This does "them happy." And I don't I knew something was wrong with me. not enough until came to the USA. Came to the USA, and now I see children from PlayStation video game, but when I returned home, we could to play small ball, we were happy about this. AND now that I have arrived to look at something other than that, I never knew that I don't have anything enough until I saw something.

So I always had this happiness somewhere deep in the soul, and we talked about how I didn't succeed. football, and then I lost it because started to get very angry because of how I am the world is happening, and envy is a word, which one I use, when I see that my peers continue to live with my dream, but I don't I can, because I don't have no control. So I didn't like it. feeling, and then I'm tired. to get angry Me I'm tired of being jealous.

I'm fed up. to justify oneself, and it's easy for you fed up. You just badly. You are disgusted by myself, and then I trying to find ways not to return to, who I was before, and I always smiling. I always good spent time. One of things I grew up with on Maui, this is what there were not many of us what if we spent time on the streets, we laughed with our misfortune. People They said: "Well, at least we have it now there is this, because if we have this won't happen, this is still one thing we "we can lose." So, if you have something is wrong, we Let's look at this, you have there is this at least, because this better than nothing.

So I always have one like this. way of thinking, and with age you are trying to see life from the other side. Always It could be worse. Whenever things are going hard, I I look back. home. How do you stay with this conscious? Because I think that many of us, if not most people, have their own fleeting experience when we think: "Oh God, you know, I should be grateful for what I have." And we we can temporarily hold on to it, but it disappears. And then, you know, we we adapt to our environment.

AND then we look back around and think: " Why do I have this? "No?" Or "Why is this "isn't working for me?" Because it works in this person. We we correct your expectations according to our environment. Yes. So, to be able to to support such perspective and, you know, the connection with that, Where did you come from? How? means of permanent maintaining this positive mood, it's like a gift, but it's also work, I think, to be able to, you know, support this, to stay present in this moment, need to work on this work.

So, one of things that I really like helps, you know, you they said you can use perspective, for example, oh, at least I have it, and this can go on not for long. So, one of best examples, which happened to me in life, was in 2015, I just got mine first lease on car. My credit rating was 500, and I just fantasized about this a car like a Mustang. I left. to the dealership center, which Dad recommended Lexus because he bought it there his car, and he came: "I want "to buy this Mustang".

And they said: "You have good credit rating?" I replied: " I don't know." Um, I then mowed the grass. Everything that I was paid, I was actually cash. IN I wasn't even there. credit rating, and then they checked mine credit rating, and the guy said: "Your credit rating 540" . And he says, "You know what? ? You look a good child. If I approve of you, you would made sure that you you will make the payment on time for the car? I said: "I promise." He said, that as soon as you You will submit this on time.

car payment, you you will build relationships with Ford Credit. So next time when you will get from us credit, everything will be fine easier and easier. So, I said: "Understood." I I love cars so much. I'm sure it's not I'll ruin this thing. Yes. So, I love this one. car. I am obsessed. this car. I remember how one I was so angry once. Something happened. I am not I can remember this. I was really angry. AND I complained. And I said: "I will sit in my Mustang.

I don't care. My Mustang will be the best. I will go. ride". I sit down in this car, Rich. I'm starting it. And I don't I can leave. access road. And I I'm looking at the car. I like this: "I don't even I need this thing. [ __ ]". Because I was like that angry that he couldn't even enjoy by car. Something right away hit me in the head . It was something on like: "Oh, material things are not can make you happy." So I started to think that it is not what it is you are, will make you happy.

Because I couldn't get rid of it the anger I was in. AND I realized that you are not you can be happy because of things. When I I constantly hear that people material, money, all this doesn't make you happy. I really am didn't feel it, until I found myself in at that moment. So That's when I found out how can I return your happiness from the fact that I had it before. home. So these were moments that I created with people. So happiness for me comes from moments that you you spend time with people, and moments that you you create with people.

You know, you remember or say: " Do you remember how once "Did we all have fun?" AND then you rejoice, smile because it is takes you back to that time. So I started to fix in one's mind to the head: "You must create moments in in your life for present moment , and then in in the future it becomes happiness because you Do you think about these moments? , about how they treat you they feel it, and you Are you feeling good? ". So happiness for me comes from moments that I I create with people, even when I'm here, friends, family, um, you know, your partners , all that.

So, when comes to the point, when is it really bad, you should think about people. AND everything for me comes down to people. Life without people actually...Why? Are we doing this? We We are happy because we can share moments with people. Well said. You...You my new guru. I...thank you. I know what you love. machinery. I know that you love this Mustang. Oh, I love this Mustang. I cried a little from happiness, although, hmm, more than when I I saw that video where you you take your 911.

Yes. Because I know how much You love cars. Oh, I love cars. And I just thought: " I can't imagine how It means a lot to this guy. Yes. Hmm, but also to know, What do you understand by this? correct point vision. This is not the answer, you know, that won't do you happy, but this It's kind of great that you was able to go and get this crazy car. How old are you? I...I'm 35. 35? For example, for at the helm of this beautiful silver Porsche 911.

And then I thought about the connection between you love for cars and your love for running, because your series The run happened. just because you were obsessed with something automobile YouTube channel, where the host told about how Paul trying to take care about himself and starts this series for myself, and this gave you an idea. So it's all part of it. It's all part of it. Yes, his name is Paul. Wallace. Congratulations Paul Wallace, super cousin London. Actually, when I started running, and Then a year passed, I wrote to him in personal message.

He is not seen this for years, until 2 years ago. He says: "Oh God, I'm already seen your TikTok before ". I said: "Field, I want to tell you, you one of the reasons why I here today." Now We are friends. I am so happy. that he heard about it, and Is he in London? Yes, He is in London. So you're going to London Marathon, Yes? From Apple? I participated. Oh, that was in the past. April. Yes. Yes. And I tried to say you, should you go and shoot a video with him.

I would really like to, and I Okay, I'll be back. to London, but this It was in such a tight spot. deadlines, because you do many things from partners with whom You are working. It was it's hard to do something additional beyond that. AND the goal was to help to my blind man friend to keep pace. This was for me. the most important. So I was unable to do a lot of things. But I I will be back. Yes. Do you have any? plans for celebration decades, if assume that you are Will you do it?

And whoever listens to it, but I hope I have in my mind the biggest sponsor , my favorite brand, that I work with, Hoka. I talked to them about how I want it to looked 10 years old. AND one of the things that I I want to do something. like festival day. As incredibly good day. Not everyone definitely me, but everyone will have an incredible time beautiful, you know, California, to to say hello. Yes. So incredible Good day. So, by in fact, it will be a whole day during which You eat, you run.

Let's say you, for example, do you want come to this 10th anniversary celebration, you can't come at 10 am, but you can come at 1:00 p.m. Because I I want this. continued as all day long when you come and run at any convenient time time for you. You can just come, to hang out, to eat a lot of interesting things, to give out gifts, my favorite things, which I love use during this series jogging, mine favorite shoes, mine favorite watch, my favorite supplement. So this is an idea, almost carnival-like the thinking that I think about the celebration of 10 years.

Would you do this in New York? This should be in New York. York. This should be in New York. Yes. Well, it could be. annual event, also like Hella Good Day, for example , in May...What is this? 11 May? The 17th, something like that. May 15. May 15. But I do it every year group jogging. So for the first time since then, how I started spending This is a celebration, I did it in New Jersey this year. But, um, I would come to New York, we ran through the Central park, we ran highway, we've already run the entire route earlier.

So in May of this year I went to New Jersey, because everyone in New Jersey wanted to write to me, why don't you ever did this in their home state? So I did what was quite fun. Let's figure it out. So I want to understand series rules jogging. Yes. Uh, because in everything this has, uh, some principles. Uh, by- First, you are a lot. you are traveling. You travel a lot. So this is additional complication. Than you are more famous you become, the more You are in demand.

you know, you always you are flying. This is now a little complicated situation than when you started. Yes. Okay, mine. main rule series of runs: this should be outside for under any circumstances. Treadmill for I am not considered. running, but running the path can be an extra mile. And I I will tell you an example. how you used treadmill yesterday. Uh, she should be on streets. And then, uh, in I was minimal. requirement in the first year: you have to run average 7 miles per day because it was by default.

But my minimum distance—5 km, 3.1 miles, or just 3 miles on level ground surface. And I had the case when I ran 2 miles on streets when I had surgery in oral cavity, and me at the same time removed the implant and wisdom tooth. So I I still want to run, but I ran 2 miles in those days. And even after ... But while you were taking painkillers and other? None painkillers. My doctor, my surgeon told me that The orthopedist said, "Hey, It seems you have high tolerance to pain.

I'll just give you a larger dose "Tylenol." That's all. That's all I have for it. received. And you ran through how many hours after dental operations? So I ran at 6:00 in the morning. The surgery was at 8:00. So I took care of this one. day. So next time I waited until 8:00 that day. p.m. And when I went out there, he warned me: "I never mind, I'm not very good at it I'm worried about you. pain tolerance. I I'm worried about the seam, which superimposed, seam, which falls out.

Through your blood pressure there will be a mouth full of blood . And I went out for a run. So, after running 1 mile, my mouth was full blood. And I can to taste a little with the tongue seam, this is a place where, uh, blood streak, uh, intersects with yours, you know, yours well-being. Yes. So I said to myself : "One more mile and you end". So I shortened the distance up to 2 miles. AND the next day it became better. But, uh, this some of the rules.

AND also, because it is should be on the street, this doesn't mean that I don't I can use treadmill. So, we have in New- York and New Jersey smoke appears. Not I know, have you noticed? when you go out street, you can smell it. Yesterday was terrible. . So, I looked at quality index air quality (AQI), air, and in the morning was the least feeling bad air. It's all one thing was bad. You you can still feel its smell. Therefore I I wear a mask to run 2 miles on streets, because the series the run should be outside.

I had 8- a soapy run, but I put on a mask, went out there, ran 2 miles, and then, returning home, took off the mask. And just now I took off my mask, I said: "I am so happy that did it because it was actually like that badly. Imagine, that you are even like that You've been breathing it in there for a long time. air". And I'm watching. for longevity for your health. Therefore, I ran on the treadmill. tracks and run another 6 miles. So I took care of it.

things on the street. So now I want to run the rest of the distance on treadmill, like at least, but not all of it must be outside. No, it's not necessary. must be on the street, but if I run at least 5 km, I I will be outside 100% of the time. until it arises a scenario where through I made the smoke wisely. . I told myself that even Lexi said: "I don't think you you will only do two running on the street, like earlier". I said: " You know what?

I am thinking about your lungs and your The future is in running. I I will do two runs on streets, and the rest I will do it on the treadmill. path. So this morning I ran two races on the street, and quality the air is much better, but still not very good And then, when will I return home later today, I will sit on treadmill and I'll make four more so to score six. AND what about international travel? OK. The strangest thing in me that when you You see me somewhere in world, my phone will always be for standard time east coast.

My watch never not updated. Ago I set mine to manual mode. Therefore, you know when you land on airplane, you turn on phone, and he updated to any What time zone? Mine never is changing. This is Eastern coast. Series The run started at New Jersey. So I don't... When I go to Los Angeles Angeles, I don't I get an extra 3 hours. So when it's 9:00 evening in Los Angeles Angeles, it's midnight. on Jersey. If I don't I will run until then, series of runs ends.

So I I have to run. during these 24 hours. This is my own rule. . When I went to Australia in 2019, I made four flights to save your series. Right. Because you ...If you were flying directly from New York to Australia, that's all ruined. You would been in too long airplane, right? So you deliberately... deliberately planned it... created stops on on the road to have able to support series. So what do you think? liked to do, to go to Okinawa or somewhere in Hawaii? I was flying from New Jersey.

to Los Angeles, got off the flight to Los Angeles Angeles, convinced that I ran there. So, when It's already midnight, I ran in Los Angeles . I boarded a flight to Brisbane, came out of plane to run. And then, when I was flying from Brisbane to Broome, got off the plane and ran to Broome to to get to the place appointment. And this was designed to to express great thanks GoPro, because GoPro offered to me this trip. I said I say "no" to them because I don't want to.

to ruin your streak jogging. I said that I really appreciate it. And I told them that the reason, why do I have this opportunity to go to this trip, is to this run. AND jogging really important to me. I would politely declined. And they said: "What, how do we connect you with travel agent, "We will solve everything." AND And so it happened. Yes. When you were closest to in order to interrupt series? So that didn't happen. That's why you know that it says that if this is important to you, you You will find a way.

When me, even if I I will have to fly. never anything I will take the risk. I have there was a flight at 6:00 am to California. I was running at 3:00 am. Because I know that I control this time period. But if I get stuck in to the plane that I do? And I'm stuck in a plane for a couple of hours, a few hours ago. So, what will happen? if you, you know, don't Will they let you go? Running will take me. Yes, before I even sit down on this flight, I would wanted you to found himself in a situation, when you don't have freedom, for example, your freedom.

I will say, if that is the case, but this never happens will be, because I never I'll board the flight before to run. Aha. I never did that. did. I would never I didn't do that, Rich. I would do it anyway at what price. You must avoid arrest, you know, it seems like there is certain circumstances. If something happens, I would say, "Hey, Officer, can I run?" You know, a small one questions around you, uh, immortalization of the series running due to injury. You know, it's like...

age, as if there is a risk, you know, calculations gets a little steeper. People also series The run is not that good. important as recovery, because if I'm not getting better, I'm not I will be able to run. next day. How to do it and not to do it to become neurotic with about this? I just did something. I feel, I appeal. to professionals. For I used to think, "Oh, I super warrior, I can with to fight this, and this "There will be three months of pain." So this time when I I feel something, I I slow down, I slow down.

distance and immediately I am going to physiotherapist or manual therapist. So now I am very attentive. I treat myself body. For me now it's not about ego anymore. Previously, when I started, it was very driven ego, and I like this: "I can do this" nothing can be done "Stop me." Now it is to be smart. IN as events unfold are happening, unfold. If you are listening Hella vibes, I I appeal to audience, you should listen to our first 5 year old podcast old, because we we tell the whole story your background.

So today we do this we won't do it, but I recorded several interesting questions that , in my opinion, could to you. Which Polymarket odds on how long Will this series continue? I like this. question, because I am a concept I don't have it. And I always I say that the only one the answer I can to answer this, this if I choose a date, keep it simple 10 years. Hmm. I would agree, I would do it. would be the smallest minimum, to pass 10 years.

It will allow me just, you know, yours body, your mind will reach to such a situation, when you just are you going to do everything necessary to to reach this point, because you are already everything calculated in their heads. Yes. So I don't want to go to date. I just I'll let it go. So you don't think about ... No, I'm not talking about that at all. I don't think so. I mean, this is very similar to the case AA, day by day. All, what can you do is to say: "Okay, I "I'm going for a run today." The only way continue the series–this to focus on, What are you doing today?

Yes, of course. So, if I wake up tomorrow I will too I really don't like it. jogging, and I will as unfortunate as before I started, I always told everyone: " I'll take it first. the handset. How are you doing, my beautiful ones? Series ended today ". And I will be happy about that, because I know that after this series of runs I I can find something. other. Therefore I must be open about it. You can't hold on to it. This is too strong. Will you feel relief?

Will there be Is this catharsis? If with Have you been relieved of your burden? Are you don't you feel that way pressure? There is no pressure. And when I am asked: "How I should start a series. jogging?", one of the first thing I say: " You have to do it without pressure. You have to do it without pressure, and you have to do something achievable, and you have to do this because You like it. These are the three things I'm talking about. I always say. And this one the pressure came when I played football, coaches are always on you.

When you are at the end queues when you are working fitness, this means, that there is some pressure. You you can't be the last one. You have continue. You too slow. So there is none there. pressure. So I wanted this one section. And then you you have to do something achievable. I started with 10 minutes a day, because not knew how he would react my body. 10 minutes were definitely achievable. I could do more, but I didn't know, How long can I do this? continue. So, with over time, 10 minutes started to give up nothing.

So I added more. And then, the last one, was because I thought: " Wow, that's not bad. Me this is actually I like it. Now this "doesn't seem routine." Is there anyone else who has a longer series of races, than you? For example, who has a record? So there is a record of this a gentleman of 52 or 55 years. People ask me, do you want this make? I said: 50, I can help you with that. answer, no. It's me. I can say. Yes, I am.

I mean, there is one guy who has been doing this for a long time. I I mean, because I should have to believe him/her word and trust him . And before I wore several watches. Everything you had under Running time, this is a notebook, and you recorded everything. So, 50-odd years therefore, this is what he did. And for me, I I think if you ask someone who has this record with on the first day, I can to be the one to prove you have it 100%.

So in I have my own record. through the digital age, in which I grew up. So you you can say, maybe something in record to show, but I don't have one record. I am distant. from the record. And I never about it thought, and I'm glad I didn't knew it was possible, before I started, because again, you know, what are you starting do? Starting compare oneself with others. So ignorance is bliss that happens often. Aha. So, years ago, until all of this, me a website was needed.

So I did what You did it then. I hired a designer, waited for months, paid a small fortune and eventually got something that I didn't could change, not by calling them, without paying again, without waiting again, because do it yourself all this was impossible . I'm constantly talking about this. I think, especially when I use Squarespace, because it's a little crazy, how much is it completely upside down . Squarespace is universal platform for creating beautiful, professional website. And you are the one, who is managing this.

You start with Blueprint, their partner with design based on artificial intelligence, or one of their awarded templates, and themselves shape everything for with help drag and drop. No code, none designer on terms hiring, none no experience required. And it doesn't look like homemade, it seems like you they did it seriously. Squarespace simplifies the process to declare oneself: the only fair one price, comprehensive solution, built-in confidentiality and security, none hidden additional nonsense. The barrier behind which I paid huge money, actually no longer exists. So actually not reasons to wait.

Autonomy –that's not what I'm talking about I thought a lot when recently sat down for Rivian R2 steering wheel with founder and general by director RJ Scaringe. But when RJ started to talk about where Rivian is moving, I don't could stop talking about it think. What are yours? final thoughts on short-term and long-term future autonomous driving? I think that in short-term in the future it will continue improve.

For us until the end of this year we will reach the moment when we we will be able use navigation from a point to the point without use of hands. So, you can enter the address, tell him to "go", and he will go there himself.

But the next step— integrate this into navigation so that he oriented and returned, of course, stop lights, signs « stop, that's all, and that's it year.

And the next one year we will reach this plus eye shutdown. So, we'll start with turning off the eyes on highways, to you could be completely...He no...He doesn't squeak or... says "postpone... You can...Yes, you can you can do anything you wish. Yes, you you can do anything you wish. Standalone functions driving and assistance to the driver in R2 today, and those on the horizon, —this is only part of it of what makes him so attractive by car. You you can find out everything about Rivian R2, view the rest our conversation and even book demonstration check-in at stories.rivian.com/richroll.

If you could to talk to little Hela, when he was little child in Molly, what are you ...what are you...what are you saying to this child? Everything will be fine. good. Everything will be fine. If you just need to be happy. Only don't lose this joy . Everything will be fine. And I I tell my sister that my sister's now three children, two boys and a girl. To my niece It's been 1 year now and I I thought she was mine. favorite I can't... I can't allow it.

to his niece... to my nephews this hear. They live in the States. or in Illinois, Dekalb? So when I see this a little girl, Thing is, she always smiles. And I said to her sister: "Fadimo, you can to do everything in in your power not to to let her lose this joy? She said, "What are you "What do you mean?" I said: "You see this innocence right there? She is just happy. We don't know why. We We don't know what it's about. thinks in his head" .

So I thought, "I don't I know, can we do this? make". I would like to so that every child could just to preserve this joy, because I had it, and I lost it. About a person, you know, as if we are all just we are trying to return home, Do you understand? If we could be more childish in their own way life. As if our lives It's just exhausting. Absolutely. I see this as a father, you know. You see yourself, you know, you know yourself, you know, on on your phone, type , he, he puts a small photo, something like memories, you know?

It's like photographs, always photos children when they very small, and I like this: "Oh, look, "How happy they are." Life is hard, Do you understand? Life heavy, and it, as it were, and all the incentives of our cultures squeeze all of this from us, Do you understand? And very difficult, as it were, hold on to it. Hmm. And for me, to tell her, and she said how I I'm going to do it. When she grows up, I I can't control things. I said that yes, you can't to control certain aspects of life, but the point is that always remind her, what makes her happy so that she continued this do.

Because when I grew up, my parents and I...I love mine parents, um, my dad we will often hear it name. He wanted me to lived according to it. So this is took away my joy, because now I was forced to do what I don't like it. So, when I told this to her sister tomorrow, she said: "Let her will hear. Because if to allow someone to be yourself, yes, will take off and fall, but in the end, even this fall, when this happens, no will outweigh the joys.

Because you will find a way back to joy." You and your partner are already 16 years? 14 years old, yes. 14 years old? Children? No children. No? And I...I know you. No, but you're thinking about... We...Okay, the answer like this: sometimes we we think: " This relationship is too simple. You need complicate them. You "need a child." Sometimes we find ourselves at the level of difficulty. Sometimes I think about myself: "I would love children. I would be "a wonderful mother." We Let's talk about it. We would be great parents.

But We are afraid to have children. AND sometimes we just we think: "Maybe we "We don't want children." For you think about so much things. And some of them, certainly, selfish, but to me I like mine. freedom. I say: "With children, probably not there will be the same freedom, but I can do so that it it worked, Do you understand?" And then are you also thinking about the world in which we live we live. You think: "Is I really want to bring the child into this world?

Do I want to have something else, what about Should I worry? Or I want to put child in a situation where she can't to control what happens with the world? You can bring your children into the world, but you don't you can control what the world will show your child, even if you do everything possible. So I think about me going there- here. We are going there- here. So, we're like We want children someday. We don't seem to want to children once. We seem to We don't know what to do.

So it's just there- here. So I don't have idea. This is a portal into darkness, which I was looking for. I am like this: "Where is the darkness?" As if she is all smiles. I'm like, "Oh, okay. In he has one outlook. As if the world not so great place. It seems so, the world not so much excellent, but you can do its wonderful in its own way situation, in your thinking. Because I always I say that happiness comes from thinking. It comes from the state soul.

I feel sufficient. I I feel happy. I I feel rich. AND someone told me, uh , the other day, I was on at the party, uh, at a friend's party. There there was another person, whom I met. And she says: "You should have to play football. You were would be super rich. "« That's what he told me. said. Didn't I play? in football? And I answered : "Actually I rich". I said him this. And he looked at me. I like this: "This is not that the wealth you are talking about you think.

I don't at all. I am talking about material. This is me. I don't care. I I feel like this. rich because of What is my life like? For example, look, I I spend time with wonderful people. IN I have friends with whom I am here. I am rich, therefore what do I just I like what I am. I do. And I said: " It's not what you think. ". And he's like, "Oh, so you are not talking about money?" I replied: " "No, no, no." I said: " This can make you happy only until to some extent, because you you will always want more.

You always you might want to try find out what's next." So, you can be happy in their own state of mind, creating moments and different, but that's also not ignores the fact that you can also to see that happening in the world, to see what it is, and see what you can to do, applying every effort to improve it one for one. For example, for us, we can't change everything in the world. My way of giving back to the world—this leadership in nutrition, not eating meat.

So for me to be vegan , to be a plant-based food —is to take care of another way. So, if we all will to do a little at a time, this will merge into collective great power, then the world can to be like that a beautiful place, how we imagine it . You want the world to was sympathetic place, you must to act with compassion. Compassion, 100%. You are incredible. charismatic person. Your energy contagious. You favorite. People want to be in your orbit through your energy.

When you see this, you think: "Oh, if you can do that behave yourself, hmm, uh, abundance is consequence of this way of thinking. That, as you walk on the earth, makes you to attract people. And this creates opportunities. People they want to do with you something. But for a person, who is fighting this, which has a negative influence, or thinks: " Nothing ever "it turns out", or " why at all try?". You can you tell this to a person: "You need to change your way of thinking ", or "you need to do this and that." As How are you?

reprogram this person, or how do you Are you talking to this one? a person to try reconfigure these settings in it brain that she is not capable of something, or that you know these are good things happen only with other people. I like it, when you say that, Rich . I always tell Lex, when I listened to yours podcast, I said: " Rich Will is so good conducts an interview, He puts so well. question". Because you You are opposing me. any question, then as I had typical podcasts and interviews, where was something on like: "You you are wrong, provoke this and that, but you made me to open up like this the way I said: " "That's really cool." Nobody really asked me about it, and then you did it here again.

So I I just want this. emphasize. Yes, you just you will gain time while trying to understand how to answer this question. But now I have respond. So I I am going to answer. to this question, but I'll start with this area. So, I bought a Porsche 911, and then in the caption, when I wrote the post, I didn't even know he could I would say that too to a boy, like a boy, about whom you said, that I'm rich, like: "I rich not because of this, "but I have 911." Yes, and I was wondering if I wanted to me at all publish this in social networks, but I wanted to publish this to to show people that perhaps.

And even in In the signature I said: " Happiness does not come from material. This is from the one you are with "you are seeing off." So I posted this in to your TikTok. I have there were two people from different views on life. One of them said: "Um, buddy, you just rub it in for us in the face, and I I will try to to offend you. Yes". And then someone said: "The future bright. And I like it. I like it because it saw it like this: "My The future is bright." He I saw it that way.

I want to have what I want, whether it's 911 or I don't know, what is he thinking about, but the fact that he said: "My future bright. I commented: "Yes." So another person said: "You just trying to rub "It's in people's faces." And I commented on this kindly, because I try not to to express oneself through that he said something , which I disagree with. You you can't to agree with people and still to be respectful. So I said: "Where I am grew up where I come from, I didn't think that was it.

maybe until came into the world where there is many opportunities. I I love the USA because they gave me so much opportunities. And I said: "Because when I saw that this maybe I didn't know how I will do it. I just knew it was possible, and I just kept going. to do what I love, and "It has become impossible." So, those are two things. People see things in a... different. So, on your question how people can find this a way to see how they can be someone or to be full of hope and to get what they want, I think, what it all boils down to self-realization and just talking to yourself and observation of the How far have you come?

So, you know, everyone we had difficulties in life. I feel that we are all in this room we can call moments, or if not, then at least one moment, when in life was it's hard, and you don't even knew how you would survive it, and we are sitting here today. So, you need to remind to myself: "You know, I survived this battle in life. So I did. so that this happens. So there is a possibility that I I can become someone. Not I say that I am nobody, I nothing.

I can't to make it so happened." So this is made me to think about car. It all depends. from the way of thinking. So when I give advice to someone who thinks like this: "I will never someone, I never I won't achieve this, I "I will never be that." AND I said you have radio. First, I I say this because you already said. But if you change your ways thinking, you will become someone. And you don't know how are you just will continue hard work and don't touch head.

And then hard work is not perceived by me like this: "Oh, how I work hard. ". It comes from passions. You know, sometimes we do things and we think: "I am very I work hard." For me, persistent Work is a passion, because if you are enough passionate about something, you ...I'm going hard work. If you extremely excited...you excited about this podcast, you are very working hard . I am passionate about running, I am very persistent. I am working to implement your running goals in reality. But if you don't have it yet passions, hard work will only last until to a certain extent.

And then you will just do enough to survive , it is enough that just to achieve that the state you are in you will feel comfortable mentally. So, everything is always starts in the head, and that doesn't mean that it guaranteed. It just as I heard something from the Steve show Harvey. He said: " If I do something today," is paraphrasing, —is the chance that this will happen, but if I do nothing I will do it, guaranteed. that nothing will happen. "So, for my life risky.

When are you you do something, there is a factor the risk that something It can happen. If you If you don't do something, there is a risk. that this will happen. Therefore, I want to choose risk of opportunities against something didn't happen. Therefore I I just live by this. principle. Man with negative affect or by setting up marriage will react to what you just said, saying: "Well, that's all well and good, but like you differs from me. As if you are alive a magical life. As if It's easy for you.

You are not Do you understand how I feel? hard. Apparently, it's nice to have a career and life where you are you wake up with enthusiasm from the fact that what are you doing, but my relationship with work is not such. I hate my work, I sit in booth, and I have actually not no skills. AND when I look back around, I don't see many opportunities, and I just resigned myself to it. because of me you know, you'll have to accept your life under the conditions that I was given.

I think there are two things to this. things." Firstly, I would said he grew up in West Africa, Mali . People earn less than a dollar a day. It's about 2 now. dollars per day. Um... The reason why I came to the USA, was tragedy. I stayed. with my mother's sister, and she died. We left without a roof overhead. Somehow how we got to USA, so, by the grace of The universe or God, what? you wouldn't believe it, came to the USA. AND then when football is not I was mowing.

grass, earning 250 dollars per week. AND I actually, actually , mowing this grass, a person who wrote me a check, you know when you you receive a check, you You are going to bring it in. Previously you received a certain amount of the check back until he is paid, you you get both . So no matter what amount I received before he was paid, I used it, so that later it would be minus $900 because your check never arrived paid. So I was owes the bank 900 dollars, and they actually closed mine bank account.

So, I found myself in in an area where not even could open a bank in Bank of America, I couldn't open a bank account at TD. I was registered, because I had overdue debt in bank. So the only one the bank that gave me accepted at that time, was PNC. So, calling all these things, I say that if they say that you love the life you have If you have it, then you have it. Life is easy, you love. it. I didn't start with at that moment, therefore I can only say that started with the fact that in I was the only one choice, except try to find way to climb legs.

And when I did these things, now I see, that it worked. I am not knew it would work, honestly, I I have no idea. Now, when you see that something is happening, you can you say that you will do this or that, but before that I had no idea. But by -secondly, I think that nice to talk to professional therapist. I think what is mental health very important. Talking to someone, who understands how our mind works, expressing their feelings, I think that this should be normalized that we we are talking to someone with your mind.

And I don't I know how I managed. to talk to myself myself, but I said you in our previous conversation, what do I think I have there was depression. I am not I knew, but now, Looking back, I I think I was in depression, although I don't doctor, because all these signs of depression were are present. So, maybe if I talked to someone, I would get out of this tracks faster than me did. But that's all. one thing happened because I finally stopped to blame and took upon himself responsibility.

But there are so many ways to start from below. This does not mean what can you be successful. And the one who starts from the top, not means he is there and will remain. So, in There is a saying in my language, which says: be Maasai tires, enjoy. Today's King can become tomorrow's peasant . And then join to the Masai tires. Today's peasant can become tomorrow's king. So, you just need stay the course. You never know what will happen in life. And everything is temporary. Mhm.

And none of this. That's right. Everything is Maya. It everything is an illusion. It is. It is. Sometimes I sit and I think: "Well, I I'm enjoying this. While I can, because you here today, and Tomorrow you will be gone. ". Mhm. Yes. Are you in therapy now? I work in this field, Peter, a therapist, because it is important to express oneself thoughts, and I say that, what I feel and what I think that this is important. Yet one important thing that I learned from Lex, she told me once, and I I will never forget her.

It's been many years. ago. Your feelings never happen incorrect. The way you feel yourself, never happens wrong. For this may be for someone may seem strange, but do you feel that this never happens wrong. You you can ask to understand someone, how your feelings can to be like you are them understand, for example: “Oh, okay. Perhaps, I shouldn't be so mean. to think this because I actually...but you you can never to say that someone feelings are wrong, because that's what they are actually feel . This is what called a feeling ".

So when I started to think so, I thought: "Your feelings justified. It normally. Focus on them, and then find a way move on." It It helped me. AND one of the things that helped me in this, there was a book " "Four agreements." Aha. OK. "Four agreements" "- the best book, and I I have to go back and reread it, because sometimes I think about her I forget. This is my favorite. Even my sister told me about her these days. She said: "It changed my life, because I forced "Read this." "For we perceive it that way many things personally.

We, we, we We are making assumptions. We , we are not, we are not flawless. You have to be impeccable in in your own words. And we don't we always try best. And yours? best results are different every day. I said it. Therefore. Your feelings never are not mistaken. It your body and your intuition trying to tell you something. Uh-huh where we are ourselves we interfere, so it is in history that we we create around feelings, and then in the actions we take in the answer to these feeling.

I think it's important. to see if it can someone will expose you, because I so often "I'm addressing Lex." Can you tell? me, have I gone mad, "Am I wrong?" For example, if, if I...Am I talking too much about I think so? And she will tell me what she thinks about it with from your point of view, from of your prism. And I I'll say: "You know what? You You are right. From me "That's enough." "For I need some. a hint, because sometimes you just think that you Well done, what are you doing?

I understood that you I understand. But to me need a hint, and I know what I really am. I didn't understand this. If I put this question, I know that something is missing from it one hundred percent truth. Yes, I already have. I know, but I just it was necessary to she told me: "I "Got crazy?" Or what problems arise in your relationship? Yes. Where are the problems? Points aggravation? In a relationship? Yes. For example, with Lexi and Is that all? Yes. I...No...I'm trying think like: What would she say?

What would she say about all this? IN why her...what's wrong with her main claim to you? The main claim to me? I think I am pretty ideal. No, I'm kidding. This is exactly the claim. It, probably, exactly claim. No, what would she say? This guy thinks that walks on water. No, to be the only one that she knows when I have there are no good ones relationship with someone 14 years without any problems. Relationships heavy, even in best case scenario. And it's not ideal, but we are so good we communicate.

You know, we are so good we communicate. If Something is bothering me, I I feel like this. confidently and comfortable, I can to talk about it, and this I'm not scared, oh, what? if I touched her feelings, but she knows that this is mine feelings and vices..." vice versa. I think we very good we communicate. Uh, but, By the way, she is me. taught me this. I think, I didn't grow up with this because I didn't saw that my parents That's what they did. I never didn't do that.

I never seen that my parents decided cases in front of me, and I heard both sides of this stories, but I never I didn't see them. actually did it. So I didn't know that. Healthy sample communion. And then I saw our sister, we we change, or, as they call it a curse of generations. I said, we are changing all. And this blessing that we learned exactly like that, because now we know, What not to do. I always said that. But one thing is because she always, regardless of whether is this a round with her or with someone else, always says: "Speak as you you feel it, and don't wait.

Don't wait until the next day, because it means that you You hold on to it. AND then you explode, and "not in a few days" . If this had happened in that moment, even if that's not quite true, like you, imagine a scenario where, perhaps, I can't do this right now. say. Give me wait for. Tell me about this. And even I, she gave me a voice in those times when I trained people with football. People asked me, Rich, and I was a little shy, and I was little, I was a little awkward, because I thought, that people don't watch on this as a career.

Hey, Halo, how are you? Are you busy at work? Uh, I train here and there. . I am a little calm and a little scared or a little shy. One day Lex called me. She says: "Just admit it it. Just tell them, What are you doing? Be proud. hereby". And ever since The day has come when Are you working, Helo? I coach. I am training. children. I love it, and I I used to play football. , and I teach children, and I I make a living doing this.

. But she had to tell me to say this, and I knew that she was right, because I feel ashamed every time. tell people because The world has taught me that this is not a career. How is this? perhaps? Nothing. guaranteed, because the only way guarantee me salary, if this the child will come to teaching. If not... So they don't considered it as career. You studied at 4 years of college, and now What do you do? So I had it all. through society, which I told you about the world we live in we live.

But she me taught me this. So, yes, sometimes you can to step on one one per leg, but in there is nothing to this crazy, nothing like "oh, where is everything" so bad that, you know " . Are you 35? Yes. You are quite present in social networks, TikTok, Instagram, always are you publishing this positive content. THERE ARE -eh, and you are very positive role model for all types of people, but especially for young men. AND You know, I am a lot. I think about the young man a man who perplexed, looks around and, maybe he doesn't see many opportunities, and about the vulnerability that this creates in Internet, what next directs him to some not so much influential people, such as all this manosphere.

Do you think you about this at all, because around fraudulent so many personalities energies that use these vulnerable young people men? You offer alternative, positive alternative, and it extremely powerful. Algorithms are prone to to give preference negativity, disputes, controversial, conspiratorial adults, etc. So you as if you are swimming against cultural trends, but what you are doing, important, it has an impact and meaning, and to us need more people like you, because many people need your influence. Thank you. Yes, I think so. This is a difficult situation.

One of the things I I noticed it right away. that during my first year I had a series of runs, he was 12 years old, and he wrote to me in personal message that what is difficult for him stay in this world, and I'm a little panicked. I thought: "Damn Take it away from me. need to come up with, how to help this child. "So we're a little searched, found his daughter-in-law in social networks, and they knew nothing, and then talked with him. So, like, with from the very beginning I I thought about the youth, about people who are watching me, and I also gave them to know: everything you see the bright in social networks, take it with a certain amount of caution the fate of skepticism, because this is a world in which where we live, where people sell...Yes, people sell things, and if you don't see in this source motivation, leave it at peace.

If you see this if it's you depressing, leave it alone at peace. If this is you motivates, then that's great. As you know, me too I may be someday. like this. Regardless of whether this one does The guy is really or just for social networks. You should come so. Also people who do nothing know they are vulnerable . Buy this package. Buy this thing. Yes, it's simple. attracts people to the beginning of some sales funnels to sell them courses and A bunch of nonsense. And one of the reasons why I like working with sponsor, and they must understand this, and I love Hoka for that, also a VPN that allows me to do this do.

If I work with you, you just Let me live my life. life, because mine the goal is not to to sell to someone product. My goal is— to share yours working with someone. Hello, how are you? favorite sneakers now? Racing, CLX 13.0. Why do you love them? I I'll tell you why I like them. I love. Or Do you recommend them? Of course. But what Are you looking for sneakers? Oh, these yellow ones for you will fit. I think you should try this one way, because the one that you explained to me, that's my only way.

But I will never say: "Hey, you need understand this, because, You know, I don't build. trust between you and me, and then I'm trying to do something for you. sell based on trust. So I just I am selling to to have transactional relationship. My task is simple. to share the joy. So, like you, you can to talk to by the RXR team. I always I say that when we do something we do, I don't I'm trying nothing. sell. I don't want to to do none links or something like that , because then it will give up wrong.

It's not me. I'm uncomfortable. And this even felt by my body language, and I I'm trying to hold on. stay away from this 100% time. So, these young people children show life, full of dreams. Yes. These young children, when they see flashes, something with me, and if I really met Do you know someone? What do you know Dylan? Efron? Yes. Therefore, Dylan Efron is my friend . Last week we hanging out in New York York, and I met there several younger ones guys who just finished college, and I was talking with them.

And one of the things, thanks to which I forced make them realize that they continue... Asking me the main thing question, I'm not kidding. Dylan, you're cool. How are you friends with Dylan? How did you become friends? Whenever they fit and talking to me, I made it clear to them that , seeing me, I a normal person, because I am not like me, no big or something. So I'm normal for you, right? I said it. this guy, his My name is Tai. He is like this: "Yes".

I said: " Think about everyone. Yes". "We are all human." IN We all have abilities. Yes, we all have a certain level in profession, but in the end We are all human. See this one? a great man, this big general director, or this one a great celebrity, or this great man, it could be you. They are people. If you sit down and talk with them, they are the same people like you. So no feel yourself inferior. Yes, you can respect people. I respect equal. I know what is level in sports, which I am working.

I respect at least theirs level. I never I respect coaches. Just because I I run every day, I'm not saying to someone who is like that he must run. I I share with him: "This is how I am running. Maybe you can you do this use". "But always remember that you, as a young person, You are someone. Just us now on a different path , on a different path of life . And you are looking for yours own way. And if do you want to use us as an example, as plan, dare.

But you you will find your way in process. So I always I give to the young man generation to understand, what needs to be in okay with who you are there is, and don't think that you insufficiently capable because of what you is missing, and to show, what can you actually do to have all this because I don't I thought I had it all. IN I have it. You can to have it and even more. When someone says: "I want to be "Like you," I will say: "I want you to be bigger than me, because I already happy with who he is I am.

"So, it's even not a competition. I want, so that you win. I want so that you are bigger for me. I literally I want you to be bigger than me, because I I won't lose anything because I I'm already enjoying it. What do I have? What am I? you installation on abundance. Yes. As if This is not a zero-sum game. sum. No, it's not like that. We all are. we can win. I I always tell people, can we all to win in life. Sometimes I actually It was getting so sad that I am rich.

I am not emotional person. Me It was getting so sad, when I wasn't crying, but I was so sad. because I look at people. I feel this happiness and I feel guilty. And I I look at someone and just sometimes I guess how they look. They They look sad. They are sitting. I want, so that they are happy like me. How can I do this? achieve? I don't know how. to achieve this. Ago what I feel is this the happiness from which we not far away.

We all we can achieve it" but I opened for myself, and I need this person next to me to open it. Because when they do this they do nothing It matters. It doesn't matter if someone will come, just will hit them in the face and will pass by. They just look on them, you know what? Me I feel sorry for you. Perhaps, Are you crazy or something? like this. I hope so. You will feel better. AND I used to have sad when I saw people. I feel like It's sad when I see people sitting.

They can't to move physically. I I still miss you because I think that we can all have this joy. We all can we have this victory on your own. And victory for me— is to do what I I love. Victory for someone, if that's what I want to become multimillionaire. If that's what it does you for real happy, deep down souls, not because of money . You love this hustle and bustle. I want it to be. for you, you know. Yes, but most people who do this want, believe that this will answer the all life's questions.

Yes, that's true. And you? must pass this a trip to realize this. this will not be. Yes, but even then I...But you too deeply sensitive, sensitive person.

And if you can reveal it to people , that would be great. What is the answer? You know, that was my question . How to help a person, who suffers, to see another way and to start using opposite actions, so that, you know, build another life.

And spend time with people, and then to do what they want I like it. Because I noticed that when I I like it, what's yours? hobby? I mean, I have there are many different things . You have to choose one. thing where you can do it all day or daily. Well, running, swimming or cycling. For example, physical activity. But also there is nothing better, than to be near with their children when they are happy and laughing. You know, it's like there are...different types... Yes, joyful experience.

So, let's let's move on to physical... and do what I I'm doing it now. As if this also my happy one place. So I want to be...So, if I know this, let's just let's choose a ride on cycling, swimming or even running. And I I know you like it. I like it, and I see What do you really need? hard. We are enough we know each other, so that I can see that something not so. Hey Rich, do you want today to ride on bicycle? I would went with you to on a bicycle, because I know, What is this to you?

I like it. And now it's easier because you have Who to ride? bicycle. So, my help with this is as I would like to do what Do you like it? I I am already doing that. I like it. But let me go to deal with you you. I want to swim, because I can't swim. Yes. No, we need go, we need to go to basin. I will give you. swimming lesson, and then I'll sit by the pool and I'll say, "Hey Rich, show me how "to swim on one's back." « But this is what I would did, and I notice certain things that I I'm doing it now, when I see that the people with whom I am getting to know you, which ones?

really love me I appeal to them. So, I am in the world cars, and then I got acquainted with this a guy, a gentleman, exactly he is the reason why I got a good deal offer for your the car, because he protected me. He Porsche enthusiast. IN there are so many 911s and other cars. And I realized that this when a guy gets his car, wants share it with someone. He purchased brand new Porsche literally less than a month before I got mine. And he wanted immediately come to me home.

And I didn't want to. to stop him by saying : "Come." "Because he knew that I appreciated what he wanted to share. When he appeared, he was so happy, that I was able to share this with someone. I was glad I could allow him share with me with my joy. So he is somehow different treats oneself and of your life. Whatever it is there was no, because I just I see that he likes it. liked it. So he whenever something is happening, calls me: "Hey, Damn it, are you somewhere?

When we first you talked a lot talked about some goals that you put before yourself.

You have reached most of these goals . You ran Western States, you ran Hualalai, you ran the Leadville 100. Did Do you think about goals? Do you have any goals right now? What are you waiting for? impatiently? What are you do you want to achieve? Where Are you running all this? I love goals, and I I love to reach them, and I am currently working on goal, and then I want I'm going to run. I don't want to run. I'm going to run 2 hours 45 minutes on Chicago Marathon 2026.

So, here's to What am I training for? Your current personal record– 2:55. So we take 10 minutes of break. 10 minutes break. But you know, Rich, the thing is because it should have been 2:55 for me 2:45. Something is wrong. It happened, and I think that I will find out because I was in shape, most people thought I could to run that race for 2:40. Hmm, I either started race with too much number of miles on foot, about 40 miles, or something not It worked. Perhaps, I need to add a bit of a climb though it was more gentle race.

So I I'm trying this. find out. Our coach helps me with this. But this is one of my goals now, and I don't participated in marathon 2 years ago I am very, very hungry. motivated and so excited. And I am everything. I change. I am going to I love cycling. to ride a bicycle. I am much more I ride a bicycle. Cycling is part of the preparation. I I have to go to bicycle. How do I... twice a week, sometimes three times during preparation. So me have to go to bicycle.

Uh, me have to go to bike on Wednesday, I have to to ride a bicycle on Sunday. It necessarily. Hourly ran, and my coach tell me how much it will be crazy ride with this coach . Coach? Uh, his name is Mario. Oh, Mario Fraioli. Yes, do you know Mario? I know Mario. Oh, great. arose topic, when we were talking. AT, we had here Malcolm Gladwell the other day. Chris with Chris Chavez? I think so, I think Chris Chavez also remembered him as your coach. Yes.

Oh, yes, Mario and I just started work with him. And I was on his podcast 2000, er, 2022. So I don't knew. So here's what ridiculously. I'm in Western. State, I'm looking for trainers, coaches. AND I talked to Tim. Tolson, and I talked to by a Hoka engineer, and they both mentioned Mario. I am like this: me I need this number. Mario. I didn't understand that. knew who he was. You were at his show. And then they say:" Vinson, uh, Vinson, who won the race Western Western States 100, coach?

"I am like:" I I want Vinson to be coach. Vinson broke Jim's record Walmsley-13 hours 46 seconds, and I need a coach who will help me, maybe I will Vinson on marathon track. So when I found out, that it was Mario, I thought: "Oh, God, what a small world ". « So, we talked, and we have ongoing preparation. So we have full weekend. It one of the goals on which I work and he believes. that I can do this make. I believe that I can do it.

Uh, I am excited and I want to return. to the marathon. It's over. too much time. I know what you have. others are being prepared now fascinating things about which you can't speak. Yes, we will. announce this. It there will be something that no one never seen. Yes. And I am very happy about that. Yes, as soon as it happens ready, I really want this. speak. IN I am here. So we will do triple triumph? Third. As soon as this will be ready, Dude, you're awesome.

You can come when you want. Thank you. Yes. We could to lead weekly podcast with you. Yes, let's do this. Um, that's exciting. This is super exciting. Fast marathon. Aha. What do you think? most wrong Do people understand you? , in this series of runs and in the fact that you..." What Are you doing? Oh, you never you are sick and not you get injured. Every time, when I post something like a series run, for example, 5 years, 10 years, 9 years or 3000 or so days, the comment is: "So , you never you get injured and not Are you sick?

I am like: "I not the Bionic Man or Robocop. I am getting injured. and I rarely get sick." AND one of the biggest that It happened to me, When I'm sick, that's what What is my headache? was from pressure, but how only I feel pressure somewhere, I'm running, pressure literally is removed. So I I use running as medicine, to get rid of headache. And I talked about it with your doctor. She like this: "Let you just spin it blood circulation. You you get rid of the pressure, moving your body.

The body works great." "So, regarding injuries, I I'm injured. Am I talking about injury? 100%. So no do what I do I. I do not recommend no one has to run every day. It's possible, but I I'm injured, and I I minimize this as much as possible. more, because it's simple inevitably happens . You every day load yours body. And sometimes not it is necessary that you you can come without on that stone, and then a little something to correct. Therefore I just making sure that everything at once I control.

I I will retreat, as I have already done. said earlier, recovery, physical preparation. So people They think I never I am not injured and I am not I'm sick because I'm running. daily. You also became peculiar correspondent from running. For example, you drove live broadcast Western States. So you, you, you, something on sample commentator in general. This is also another, um, role. Yes. This is so fun. Because you know that I love this look so much. sports. I love to talk about everyone sports participants and… » I like them select.

And I think, that it really matters to see that they do. We are inclined to see the catwalks, but cool to know a little about these athletes, when they are competing. AND, you know when you love interview, talking with people, you can talk all day. I love being in this. sports. I can to talk about sports all day. I can to talk about running all day, about shoes all day, about cars and bicycles. And I am for that, to get carried away bicycles that really dangerous.

Crazy. I can go, I can go. there with you. And I constantly beat this drum, but I think the more runners should more to ride a bicycle. I think cycling –this is incredible tool for development of aerobic abilities without tension, you know, you can go out and to ride on cycling for hours, for hours and hours. You can't run. as much as you can drive, too can you be in this the state of the second zone and to increase over time this engine, not exhausting yourself and not exposing oneself to injuries, as well as strengthening muscles stabilization, which make you more resistant to injuries as Yes, gluteal muscles.

I I feel that mine gluteal activity muscles get used to it. And Lex always laughs with me. I would do something. with Tom, for example: " Oh God, I feel it. the difference. I'm already in shape. ". "This week, riding a bicycle, I feel the difference in endurance. You don't need that. run a lot. No, you can leave too. eat. People forget about the social side. I once drove by with a friend 50 miles. We stopped at a coffee shop , after 25 miles, bought these vegan ones are delicious muffins, I'm full of them and drank coffee, and we sat down again a bicycle for another 25.

Nothing. I said that I can't run, I can't. I can do this. So social part of me worked. We were going to average about 16 miles per hour. It was for me load, because I I am not going to bicycle. I really am I felt it. But I could to do this, enjoying social aspect and food. And I still worked well because my legs were wounded next day. But I had work. For example, where are you ride a bike in Jersey? So, off we went. We parked in Fort Lee, moved across George Bridge Washington, and then remained on Hudson, and then went to..." Yonkers .

And you can...This a small path can lead all the way to Canada, I heard, if you want. Also I have a local The park is where I live. AND he crosses the bridge, to go to Jersey to go for a ride, and you Are you going somewhere else? direction. Yes, I did that. And also in My neighborhood has a good one. 18-mile long park . You can get in. there with a stop for water and toilet, which quite fun. But in It's just the weekend there.

it is crowded with people. Hmm. So, I know when you started a running streak, each year had a certain topic. The first year is was, uh, self-knowledge. Second year, due to injury, it was about psychological stability. In the third year it was about joy. Are you called every year another topic, which would try follow? Which topics in the coming years? And what is the topic for, uh, this 10th year? So every year had to have a topic. Because, when I pass through this, you are already living...

the first year was joyful. I'm like, that is, I am in in the process of self-discovery . I seem to be opening himself. I'm like, "This is is happening. It steeply". But again Okay, now you know, What will happen? Therefore, next year intended for endurance, I I get injured because I put in a lot of effort. more effort. And I I know exactly what to expect. That thrill, who was coming, no longer It's so new. AND then a year of joy, and I had to to return and return that feeling at first sight year.

Work on this is purposeful. AND I can't anymore. think about distance. I didn't care whether I will run 7 miles for day, I can just run 3 miles and that's it It will be fine. So continue. And I have there was even a topic races. I had a year. Renaissance. So the year The Renaissance was for me by reincarnation. So, rebirth comes as another person , like another runner. Here why did I want to run much faster because I don't really like it. were excited about the race, but now I want to see how fast am I I can actually run.

And I don't want to use a series of runs as excuse, because technically on paper you can say: "Damn take it if you It will take a couple of days. rest and you will allow your body recover from with help cardio training, you you will be fast runner. "But that's not priority for me. But I want to run. daily. That's why you you will be fast runner, not the other way around, because it's easy for me will be found excuse why you did not reach 245.

So, this was a year of revival. I wanted to be reborn. And now the 10th year will be literally like glory, glory means almost what I want to hide her where everyone is are gathering together. I had to find the correct word for this, for example, thing in the community, all of this about people, the year of people, because people have proven me to where I am. So, this is year of people. So, the year people, yes, we celebrating my 10th year, but that's all of us we unite as community because you, guys, were part of Hella Good family, Hella Good community, and this I'm not the only one who did this.

Uh, you know Nathan, uh, from the team. Of course. So, Nathan was at my house in Monday. And one of things that I I immediately told Nathan, because he is so smart, what helps me understand things. I said: "Nathan, this madness when people They always tell me: " And I told Lex this, I told this to many people. people: "Oh, I did it." "it's me." I said: " How much are you? did you do it yourself? Yes, you have to act. You You have to move on.

But if you look on the bigger picture, then so many people came to me help. But Lex, it wouldn't be " "Hello, Good," because she told me that we need to be released video. And she edits video, she makes everything to this day. She still is is doing this. Grish, I don't know how. edit video on YouTube. I don't know. And I I tried it, and it is so. hard. I am telling stories. on Instagram 100%. Tape TikTok, YouTube, 100% exists with the first day. And then I said: "Without you, Nathan, you are helping.

me with certain things ". No team, RXR, no my sponsors, it's not looks like a village matter. "We always said: "In my country is rural case". "It literally rural case. So I want to so that this 10th year will be dedicated to people. I need to find the correct word for this, but we still have several months. So We will take care of this. IN You are wonderful partners. You worked with Hoka several years. You did some things with Apple. You were with BPN. Aha. The Hybrid Athlete Bros.

So you were? You were to the ranch? What is that? This is a whole scene. I am not I was at the ranch, but I will . How did it happen that I I see these videos, you know, like these guys, Dan Churchill, Max Jolliffe. Yes. Maybe I will have to lead, because I talked to Nick. about a trip to the ranch, to spend training camp for my preparation to the marathon. And they they said you can to do it. So, maybe me will have to do this organize.

And you didn't participate in running on the back yard. No, I also did not participate. And I...I went to Nick's, because he said..." Hmm, if you will register in 2027 year, I will go. But to me you need to registered. "I told him this in face, because I replied: "Yes, I am." said. I don't want to so that you just sit there. You need to feel that everyone feels it. I I will register if you You will do it. "But I I got an answer. If you are the owner races, then for the "backward" rule "yard" you can't participate.

So this one He can't run. make. Aha. Yes. But the backyard I'm not interested, but I want this too. to do, and I know that I can do it. It my ego speaks. Because I I know what a back is. yard, I ran 100- soapy race. I can easy to run 100 miles in your head. I I think I can, and I I can sit for a few minutes. And I know that from Sometimes it gets harder, because when you sit down and you go, it becomes more and more difficult and harder, you go slower.

But everyone who ran 100 miles, I I think this is the worst. point of view, knows how it is felt on body, and this continuously. None seating, and if you are sitting there a minute or two, just to change something and to go, the first few laps, the first 15 miles, you, You are probably sitting. you get 15…20 minutes . Yes, but if you you get on Harvey area Lewis, then you have I mean 300, 350 miles. I I think that if I do this I will do it, my goal is— to run 150 miles, 150.

That's all. Harvey Lewis —this is another level. I would didn't even give in such an opinion. He crazy. Harvey crazy. By the way, about another thing a vegan runner, or people are annoying you because of vegan things? No, you know, the thing is, that I am actually vegan, You know, I never I'm talking about veganism. on social networks in this way, but if you ask about mine Dad, I'm talking about this. But some things that people love to talk about veganism, your protein, I am sure that you discussed this.

Yes. Where do you get it from? white? Where are you from Do you take protein? And I said that if I have there are problems with protein, the fact that I run across America every day, and I do all these things, and I do everything. Yes. And I'm still teaching them. photosynthesis, you know, you know how it works photosynthesis, and I said you know like, but animals eat plants, and then...how they get protein, and they say, "Oh, okay, I'm fine didn't know that." So they think that because I don't eat meat , I have a deficit.

I work for you. Yes. And I still do. blood tests. I I always make sure that everything It was good. I the only vegan in BPN on 100%. Uh, Nick's team. And I said to Nick Bear, what should you hold on to for this vegan white. And I won't say that I'm the reason, I'm sure one of the reasons why this protein started because when I first met him in 2021, and then the company was still on the rise. She is not where it is today.

We talked about it. I said: "There is nothing, what I really wanted would use from this brand. ""AND they don't really have there were electrolytes, but there were no gels. Since I am a runner, we need protein. So, when did it start to appear, I actually bought the product itself, because I I liked him. So, when they asked me to become with him athlete, me it was easy to decide, because I like it product. So the fact that that they have vegan protein, electrolytes etc., it really is perfectly.

I said, "Nick , would you ever switched to plant-based diet, became vegan? He said, “You know what? I would be happy to ate vegan food, but I don't think I can do it. make. I said, "I I will come to you. Take me to yours. favorite restaurant "I'll come there to eat." I said, "Me too." said ten years ago. But look, Where are we now". "Yes. Well, well, you could force Nick Bear to dive your finger in herbal method Life is not small. feat. That would be nice.

challenge. Come on. Do it. for the sake of the scenery. I'll try, I'll try, I'll try it, I'll try it. to attract. Yes. Or there is a brand you are with You are not working now, and about which you thought: "Oh, this is my dream brand— to work with these "boys?" There are two brands. With a friend you are already working with them, Rivian. That's it. And the reason why Rivian...me I will tell you everything. background. I knew Rivian before Rivian became popular among the wide public.

Must be car enthusiast, to know what Rivian is. The story...Jonathan told me more about the story, because 4 years ago...5 years ago I went to Jonathan home to drive up to him Rivian trucks. Jonathan—ours manager for those who doesn't know... He allowed me drive a Rivian. I am like this: " Oh, God..." This madness. So, when Rivian came out, everyone car enthusiasts such as people from automobiles news, just did reviews, and I watched this car and thought: " This is interesting. We are like this never seen, and I thought that was it really cool." So I delved into this car, found out about her story, about what this is it, and I thought, what would it really be cool car.

I knew that they were one of the the first people who had their own network charging stations. The first one was in Colorado. They established the first charging. It wasn't Electrify America, it is not was similar to the others charging stations, this wasn't ChargePoint, they launched their own, and I would like to, for Ford to launch its own, but to us has to to rely on a third-party company. IN I have an electric car. This is not Rivian, this is Lexus car. This is Ford Mach-E, but I really interested in Rivian, so what is an electric car, how only you control electric car, you you will never be able to to go back.

As only you drive Rivian ...and practicality thanks to the pickup truck, and I saw that they came up with a little less. I saw R2. Yes, R2. He looks really cool. Yes. Uh, and he's completely revised. It's like evolution. I have on I mean, he's a little smaller than R1, but feels like a more mature product. It seems they fixed it. all the flaws, and everything super cool, and he It drives great. He superfast. You are not do you feel that are you in truck. It a unique experience.

AND RJ—just one of the most impressive people, which I have ever met. AND obstacles that he had to overcome, to implement this vision, and to see, you know how this brand is perceived by people, and he just got this premium a product that is great , you know, crazy. This is just wonderful. AND he's just one of those boys who I want to win. Do you understand? Absolutely. And driving experience by this car unbelievable. Like, Yes. You must, must, must work with Rivian. It would...sicken. And if No, you need a car, I mean, being automobile fan, come on.

Me, and me, me Either this or whatever you want you need sponsorship needed Porsche, and you need to train for Le- Manu, and you know, you are from by Michael Fassbender can you sit in Rivian EV. I love mine. Porsche. Porsche would also be patient. But also I need it. electric car. I know that Porsche also produce electric cars, but in I have 911. If I had was Rivian as electric car, this it would be pretty cool. AND I think the thing is, you know, we see myself, I'm running around trails.

I am not running. as much as possible on the road. But how cool, what are we talking about environmental friendliness, Do you understand? We don't need to delve into details, but take out car on the trail with zero level emissions, park it, in you have enough stock move, you open trunk, get out sneakers for trailing, you get mountain bike, you are going to a walk, going to cruise, return, and you have this car. sitting there, and it's not... you don't need to worry You can turn it on while You're napping there.

You don't need to worry about exhaust gases, nothing like that. I I think that's enough. steeply. And we speak about conservation nature. So, if do you like it to be in nature, and you need to approach nature, to have something of zero level CO2 emissions, I think, the best option– these are electric cars. 100% there are. Good. Well, let's go. let's finish this a few inspiring words for a person, who is still fighting, the person who is on the sofa, hears you or is watching you and thinks: "I would like a little bit of that energy." I just don't know what do it first.

As I need to interrupt this. the scheme in which I am I? How do I get out of my negative, uh, cyclical thoughts, my internal monologue, which defeats me until I'm sitting here eating Cheetos and "Watching you on YouTube?" As I said, if Are you watching something? even read books, if you don't use no action, this is for me like a movie. You just watch to have fun, and You're putting it off. So The first thing I would say is it's the simplest thing. We talk about it all the time.

We hear gratitude. You Do you know what Cheetos are? Oh, God, I am like this. happy and grateful that I'm actually sitting on sofa. Because I have a sofa where you can sit. I am like this. happy and grateful that actually, although it maybe not mine favorite food if I will have to eat. Chito, to survive, I so happy and grateful , that I have Cheetos. So even when I say that I like washing dishes, that's it. my favorite thing. For me it's a sport. I I compete in washing.

dishes. I am looking at time at the stove and I think: "But when I I see a full sink, I think: God, how are you? lucky to eat so much food that yours Is the sink full? Therefore , based on a certain places of…gratitude. If the person who now sitting there, just trying to restore oneself, You know what? Now things are going very well bad, but there is little lights in the end of the tunnel. Some of these little ones lights consist of because I have a roof overhead.

Or if Unfortunately, you don't have any. a roof over your head, because Homelessness is thing, hmm, I'm happy and I am grateful that I have a friend you can be with to talk, or someone who is next to you on streets. And then you make small steps. And you will reach points when you will be needed professional because we all need professionals. Even the reason why I have running coach, not in because I can't to do this, but I need someone. Who will help me? to reach this level.

So, you will reach points when you someone will be needed but before you achieve this level, you need to rise a little. To rise is, um, soliloquium . Hmm, self-motivation. This is really difficult. Easier said than done. to do, but how you are just starting talk to yourself, you begin to believe. Because I read books and I believe that our brain is a brain that believes in everything you tell him. You you really can to trick your brain. When do you start? to tell your brain that I am enough good, I'll do it, eventually you will see, how are you trying to do something to do to prove to myself that you were right, and you make an effort to show that you was right, because you You are deceiving yourself.

I I do this all the time. It almost 100% working, unless I dig deeper in your consciousness, for example: "Oh, you just trying "to deceive myself now." But when I let go this, I can cheat yourself to believe in things. So, conversations with yourself, gratitude, so that to force oneself move, and you will have to reach a certain professional . I tell people contact me. I hope I can. to see yours personal message and answer. And if I I can do it, I can't. professional. I will say: "Contact us." professional." Someone asked me: "I have Does your body hurt?

"Oh, I experienced this. I am so I do, but you should. to contact physiotherapist, because there is people who are also up to this are treated. Oh, you have no access to physiotherapist? I'll see if I can. to talk to your physiotherapist, or can he give me some advice, and I can give it to you. I did this is so many times. If you can't to afford physiotherapist, I I'll talk to my physiotherapist about you and your problem , and then he can tell me something that I can give you offer.

You are the best, manly. I have on mind you, I think we Well done everyone. Well, we everyone is simple we are trying. I think that we are all trying . I think that this the main thing. We must realize that when Are you seeing someone? streets, they too are trying. You can not to see this, but they are trying. You just have to remember this. You you try, they we all try we are trying. Everyone just are trying somehow survive. If you have nothing nice to say, "Just go." You just need to go away.

You just I need to go away. This is the best solution. And you will be glad that you will leave. It's simple. made me remember one thing I have say. I had situations when I was driving up to traffic light. It was up to four agreements and after four deals. When someone stood on traffic lights, or you trimmed, and I just pressed the signal. I as if to say: "What are you Are you doing? You're about to kill me. "You will hit." "Because you Are you afraid that you will be shot down.

And then I very bad after this. I am watching something. like: "I badly". I don't know Why. This is so embarrassing. I'm like: "I really bad", I just did it with that one a person because I I'm coming to my senses. Aha. And next time Lex will say, "Okay, before you you will react, remember, how are you doing to feel after this. Hmm. That's why I'm telling you nothing nice say, go away.

Sometimes you you're overdoing it, because the little one is beeping, you are not enough you push, and in the end you're overdoing it signal. So, and then you see you're coming to the traffic light, this old woman You say: "Oh God, why are you..." Do this to her? Why did you honk? So I always say no act, because you will regret it it.

Therefore, this is a good way say. As if it could to be well. You can change your mind and change your life, because if you don't use it measures, nothing will change. Yes, you are not. just sit there and not you think:" Of course." Well, or what? What is yours? last time? Click five times, and then make a wish...something happened.
