8:41 interview that suddenly became Cecila
8:49 yeah I gotta call 2-methyl some two
8:53 months after curtain to the cult method
8:58 then they came this project called tube
9:00 the bracken - project organized by the
9:11 actually be one of them tOSU actually
9:26 it wasn't unthinkable and I think most
9:27 of the people still and think about I
9:33 say yes I choose to be one of them I
9:38 took time I trained for seven months and
9:47 on fifth on 6th of May 2017 in Monza
9:52 that's a formula on top I manage Tran
9:57 two hours flat and 25 seconds and I'm
9:59 happy to say and standard 8 that the
10:10 world is only 25 seconds away tour local
10:15 is full of challenges and we need to
10:16 challenge ourselves
10:22 I took a challenge to run that fast
10:25 it is really it takes it consumes a lot
10:28 of energy especially mentally but I took
10:32 myself and accepted to be challenged and
10:38 I challenge the times the owner luckily
10:41 was no attack early except when I when I
10:45 go through the the truths for the fans
10:46 in the whole world
10:50 most of them was not accept in fact I
10:52 had a friend in India who told me that
10:54 the guy is 50s now
10:59 and they told me he will die before we
11:00 see a human being
11:03 running towards blood I met him one
11:05 Monaco in New York and I choked with you
11:07 you will never talk and because you have
11:19 seen me running 12 two months ago I was
11:21 invited I call it ran in Pauline
11:24 marathon and I might victorious by ran
11:29 into a tree tattoo in Pauline and I want
11:36 to say actually all what I have done is
11:43 to to some factors as as I am saying
11:46 always you cannot in order for you to be
11:48 successful you need to consider some
11:52 factors one is self-discipline certainly
12:00 is very well preparation that Lee is
12:02 well okay you should be well organized
12:05 totally suit is you should think positive
12:06 positive
12:10 fifth is actually working with people
12:15 and we start with self this P I can say
12:22 is self discipline starts with you it's
12:27 not at a path it's that's with you start
12:31 to examine yourself and when you start
12:35 to examine yourself so self this will it
12:37 means it's doing what's right
12:39 rather than doing what you feel like doing
12:41 doing
12:51 after actually accommodating select
12:55 explain in your mind self discipline can
12:59 help you in to acquire cut ratings can
13:02 save your feelings
13:13 when you when you try to thin otherwise
13:15 then when you are selling this plane you
13:18 got me easily come back think positively
13:20 tell us you the thing
13:23 torkoal to the writing in the moment for
13:25 long-term phenomics
13:29 oh can you handy self-discipline oh can
13:36 you can't fit this self-discipline one
13:38 is that you should stick to your
13:42 priorities secondly is that toward the
13:48 Mac exercise when you decided to do
13:51 something to it no excuses then we are
13:54 self discipline that leads that learn to
13:57 say no and that's final
14:00 fertile is that you met discipline your
14:04 lifestyle this plane is not one time
14:09 event celeb discipline is like peeling
14:13 the muscle it's like going to the gym
14:17 you cannot call the team today and build
14:22 your muscle you should cut a program and
14:24 go slowly by surely that's the way to
14:26 building a muscle and that's the way
14:29 discipline that's the way you can hand
14:43 only the discipline ones are free in
14:48 life I repeat again only the discipline
14:51 ones are free in life if you are in this
14:55 plane you are a slave to your moods you
15:09 remember there is a quote which says
15:12 it's not even a quote but there is a
15:16 sign which is there in one of the nicer
15:22 schools in Canada it is place the best
15:29 time the planet 3 was 25 years ago that
15:32 was the best attempt planetry it's there
15:34 in the in the world in the world of
15:41 tetanus our school in in Canada the
15:44 pasted the second and the best time is
15:50 today plant the tree of self-discipline
15:56 I repeat again
15:58 when you visit that school that nasser
16:00 school that kindergarten school in in in
16:05 canada it's written the best time the
16:10 planet tree was 25 years ago but the
16:13 second and the best time to plant a tree
16:19 absolute discipline is today just today
16:22 is 30th is the best time for you to
16:30 plant a tree of self-discipline second
16:33 factor on how to be successful is
16:35 planning and preparation
16:39 remember in sport i believe in a plaza
16:44 be well air biases to be natural is not
16:50 important to be successful is not even
16:55 in bother but how to plan and prepare is
16:59 critical crucial that means when you are
17:02 proud very well a new plant very well
17:06 then success can come on maui then women
17:13 can come on maui Dudley is that you
17:15 should get organized in what you are doing
17:22 Ford is that you should actually think
17:29 positive in any probation you should
17:36 that's the traivor of your mind if your
17:38 mind is really thinking positive then
17:45 we're on the right track remember it
17:48 says pleasure in what you are doing it
17:52 was is what puts perfection in norwalk
17:56 that was the the others are quote by
18:07 Aristotle fifties teamwork I am here
18:11 because of teamwork I am here because
18:14 sport is a mutual interest
18:18 I am here to talk of my success because
18:24 I am really I am really I'm really on to
18:36 remember in sport we have got to call
18:41 the heron's formula and if you are an
18:47 hero then you offer a formula and that
18:52 formula says hundred percent of myself
18:56 is nothing compared to one percent of
19:02 the old team and vice versa that's one
19:06 person of the whole team it's nothing
19:08 compared to hundred percent of myself
19:21 sixth factor is consistency the law of
19:29 consistency we should get motivated and
19:33 motivation actually motivation makes you
19:37 to move motivation makes you to go forth
19:41 and in that mode fashion if you want to
19:43 be consistent is tree on the other a
19:46 nice base discipline and what makes you
19:50 to claw is discipline and the and when
19:54 you cook when you bring motivation and
19:57 discipline then you can be consistent
20:01 and when you combine all together they
20:05 say if you want to grow consistency is
20:16 I'm confident in saying that consistence
20:18 is the key if you want to grow in a new
20:26 profession with sport feet low feet all
20:28 sorts of provisions if you're not
20:30 consistent you cannot go in but
20:36 consistency makes you to crow the 71
20:40 instructor be comfortable with being
20:43 uncomfortable or being comfortable with
20:53 accept change in others I am saying
21:02 change our Collison border I know it's
21:04 an comfort it is not really comfortable
21:09 to to adopt change but change in life of
21:12 a human being in labor and elevation is
21:17 really important but in chain you cannot
21:18 be forced
21:22 I can case in this house we are between
21:25 100 and hundred and fifty but apricot as
21:31 a key to the kid of exchange if you have
21:35 open your kid hope white and well lock
21:38 and welcome J a change then you are on
21:40 the right direction if you have closed
21:45 the door and throw away the key then you
21:47 will not be comfortable
21:52 Jane is important we should accept the
22:07 personally I believe in what I am free
22:12 to run a pic marathon and win tax five
22:16 months but when when I am in a starting
22:21 line my mind start to ring what I have
22:23 been doing for the last five months I
22:27 believe in my trainings I treat myself
22:31 as the best - I need a fly because my
22:34 mind tells me were the best and I am
22:36 living or not I've been to him for five
22:52 I can run free and that's what actually
23:01 has helped me to be successful last list
23:07 that you should actually by believing
23:14 yourself in May I flipped on myself and
23:17 I ran against the unthinkable the
23:20 scientists in the whole world are kahlúa
23:23 peace in their lives and saying the
23:26 first human being to run two hours or
23:39 2075 we're still having the seven years
23:42 for human beings run two hours for under
23:47 two hours 57 years but I approved them
23:55 wrong last May that by believing in
23:59 yourself I believe on myself and ran
24:06 unthinkable the impossible I trust that
24:09 they're still in their lives and they
24:18 I'm a strong believer in in believing
24:20 what actually if you believe what you
24:32 you know it tooks it took me seven
24:36 months off at work and actually not even
24:39 hard to work I can say it was really
24:46 acted too thin and sometimes you can
24:48 sleep and wake up and you know the six
24:57 o'clock that's eleven but the seven
24:59 months I trained to help me to actually
25:01 consume all the tension all the
25:05 nervousness and at the end of it I achieved
25:19 photos few remarks let me hand there and
25:21 I will come back for Q&A
25:43 I'm the I'm the desert rather than
25:46 rather than the starter we had a very
25:49 useful session up upstairs beforehand
25:53 with some selected people which made us
25:58 nice and relaxed some of the things some
26:01 of the things that Elliott says I've
26:02 really fascinates him one of the things
26:05 that you you really get sports people
26:08 talking about is the journey properly
26:11 and if you put in perspective that when
26:15 Ed iord was a young boy the world record
26:20 for the marathon was to 720 or something
26:23 like that probably Steve Jones Great
26:28 Britain in Wales to 720 so his journey
26:33 was understanding what the world record
26:37 was mechanized knit being a kid and a
26:39 million miles away from it having to
26:42 having to get up to that level in the
26:44 first place and probably by the time he
26:45 got there had already moved again a bit
26:49 further and then surpass it and I think
26:53 that that while a lot of sports people
26:56 talk about the the outward signs of
27:00 their success medals and records and how
27:01 much money they earned and things like that
27:02 that
27:10 worthiness that sports people get is
27:12 remembering their own their own personal
27:15 journey from where it all started and
27:18 where it finished and even if people
27:20 don't go the whole way in a journey
27:22 because there's other people who are
27:24 better than them the fact that people
27:26 have gone through that journey is is a
27:30 real value it was certainly something
27:36 that I forgot in 1981 when I owned a
27:39 nightclub in Luton quarter mad hatter
27:42 1981 of course was the first year of the
27:45 London Marathon and at hoppers 10:00 at
27:46 night having
27:51 had a few I have to say a pun sir bet me
27:53 that I wouldn't run the marathon next
27:55 day now I'd probably had half a dozen
27:58 points already
28:00 I took the bet it was a thousand pounds
28:04 and and thought this was worthwhile
28:08 doing I changed my lifestyle immediately
28:09 you must remember that this was after I
28:12 finished running and I was rather unfit
28:15 but nonetheless I thought I'd do what I
28:18 could do so I moved from beers to pina
28:21 coladas thinking a health to drink would
28:26 would be really helpful the club shut at
28:29 2:00 o'clock and by the time we got the
28:32 punters out it was 2:30 and we went to a
28:35 local restaurant known as the light of
28:46 and had a carbo-loading meal there went
28:49 to bed had to get up at 7 o'clock was
28:51 the first on the mouth and started at 9
28:54 o'clock and I managed to get to the
28:55 start line
28:57 I had phoned the race director Chris
29:01 Brasher who organized a London mouth and
29:03 so he was started on the mouth and was
29:05 and was actually here when roger
29:08 bannister when the first four minutes he
29:10 he was one of the Pacemakers later
29:13 became an Olympic champion himself and I
29:15 said is it okay if I won he said well
29:18 you know why are you phoning me you know
29:20 you'll do what you want to do because
29:22 that's all you ever bloody do and and he
29:25 put the phone down I went to the start
29:27 feeling pretty confident because there
29:29 was still quite a bit of alcohol in the
29:34 system the first half was a dream first
29:35 half was a dream I went through half
29:39 weighing probably about one hour twenty
29:41 something like that feeling quite good
29:46 and confident and then the vindaloo
29:49 started to work its way through the body
29:51 and I started to adopt a slightly
29:53 different run in style
29:58 I was I was ill I was I was caught on television
29:59 television
30:06 puking into a drain and the last three
30:11 miles took me 45 minutes I ran three
30:15 hours 45 which as you will know is
30:19 somewhat slower than than then Elliot is
30:23 doing but strangely enough having moved
30:26 from that period of my life back into
30:27 working with London Marathon as being
30:31 the race director and one of the best
30:34 things best job you could ever have be
30:36 very slow it to the London Marathon and
30:38 be in charge of pushing the elite fields
30:40 together just absolutely astounding
30:43 certainly for and exactly you just can't
30:47 beat it and trying to work out which
30:49 athletes you should have who are the
30:51 best athletes and over the years we've
30:55 had some wonderful competitive events in
30:58 London and we've seen some amazing
31:04 things khalid khannouchi in 2004 i think
31:06 or something like that my men was going
31:11 it would happen to you all ran had to
31:13 break the world record in london two
31:18 hours two hours 536 now you know Elliot
31:20 would be two and a half minutes ahead of
31:22 that but he broke the world record paula
31:26 radcliffe run in to 1525 when the world
31:30 record was to 1830 right just completely
31:34 annihilated it deenis Theo's so on
31:37 winning three times in a row something
31:39 Elliot hasn't done yet but with him
31:44 running in London in in April you won't
31:45 get very good odds that he doesn't do it
31:49 that's for certain you know just some
31:52 amazing amazing performances paul tergat
31:56 he mentioned Haile Gebrselassie Liz
31:58 McColgan when he named a Martin you know
32:01 just amazing amazing wonderful victories
32:06 over the years and I've I've thoroughly
32:07 enjoyed this last
32:09 24 hours a lead it came into London
32:11 yesterday and we spent some time
32:14 together and we are different people I'm
32:17 old white hair
32:20 he hasn't got white hair yet but he will
32:23 do in time but the conversations about
32:26 the two hours and I think this happening
32:29 at this time in Oxford is really quite
32:32 amazing because when you read or if you
32:34 read any of the stories leading up to
32:38 the first four-minute mile that everyone
32:40 thought was impossible and it was beyond
32:43 human ability and then Roger Bannister
32:50 here at if Lee Road smashes it and this
32:52 is exactly where we are with the
32:53 marathon now
32:56 it's it's going to happen it's got some
33:00 momentum and you know I'm I'm in the
33:01 sort of the business that builds things
33:03 up and make some sound great and
33:04 everything else right but when Elliot
33:07 tells me that I'll see it in my lifetime
33:11 my god I'm gonna believe him and I think
33:15 it's just been it it's a privilege
33:19 knowing Elliot I am pretty certain he's
33:21 not quite there at the moment but I
33:23 think another couple of races and we
33:25 will be talking about the greatest
33:28 distance runner the world has ever seen
33:31 and who have been some Haile
33:35 Gebrselassie Kenenisa Bekele Amir was a
33:38 topic now going back in time you know
33:41 just you know some amazing people one
33:44 o'clock nineteen World Records just
33:47 amazing amazing performances in periods
33:52 of time and at the moment he's only he's
33:54 only two-time Olympic champion to
33:57 different distances he's only one two
34:00 three oh five not even the world record
34:02 holder at the moment but he's only been
34:07 beaten in one marathon and he will I am
34:11 certain become the greatest distance
34:14 runner the world has ever seen
34:27 do you have another surge or not open up
34:30 to questions now I'm on fire Elliott get
34:31 more do what you want open up to questions
34:32 questions
34:33 yeah so we're now gonna open up to
34:34 questions from the audience if you have
34:36 a question raise your hand nice and high
34:38 and wait for the microphone to come to
34:39 you the microphones just for recording
34:42 purposes not amplification oh yeah let's
34:49 start with you looking looking back at
34:52 the the reefs in Monza do you think
34:54 there was any aspect of your preparation
34:57 or even the the reefs conditions on the
34:58 day that could have been improved
35:01 leading to potentially and even faster
35:06 time in in hindsight I think in Morse
35:10 actually I think it was well-organized
35:14 the conditions were perfect the
35:17 organisation actually the setup and
35:23 everything was a plus and I can say I
35:26 everything was okay and I turned it
35:28 anything to be had a tour for a subtract
35:31 so it was really perfect that's why I
35:36 really got that wonderful time great
35:38 thank you for that question
35:44 yeah hi Ellen
35:47 so you have such a lovely technique I
35:49 was just wondering is this something
35:51 you've sort of always had or have you
35:53 done a lot of technique work or mobility
35:55 work to actually develop the technique
35:59 that you have when you're running oh the
36:04 comic actually comes from you know from
36:07 our coach from my coach personally when
36:09 you are training you know somebody is
36:12 watching us and gives me a lot of
36:15 techniques and I am really adopting
36:24 okay thank you yeah let's just come to
36:29 you across yeah thank you so much for
36:31 coming to Oxford I watched your race at
36:33 Monza stayed up all night in the u.s. to
36:35 watch it was amazing and and you're
36:36 right the race was perfect I'm wondering
36:39 what you is the perfect race when you're
36:42 not competing are you running alone with
36:44 friends and what are you thinking about
36:47 is it in Kenya where is it a perfect run
36:49 on your own when you're not in
36:51 competition where do you like to run
36:56 what do you like to think about with
36:58 total competition I can take the fabric
37:01 furnace a leg Cranham with my friends
37:07 but really when you having a really good
37:11 rest and I we are you are choking and we
37:16 are talking a lot yes so why would my
37:19 friend Stan I have been chewing all
37:21 training with them and running with them
37:24 without being Kenya or is there a
37:26 particular place miss Kenya Kenya yeah
37:29 very quickly great thank you
37:31 that question yeah we'll just come at
37:35 ease thank you for being here you speak
37:36 very very well
37:39 and given everything you've achieved how
37:41 will you approach London is it about
37:43 winning London is it about setting the
37:45 world record is it about trying to go
37:48 sub 2hours and do you make a plan
37:52 beforehand or do you adjust I was in
37:53 Berlin when you ran and it was a
37:56 horrible day of rain and humidity do you
37:57 have to adjust your race strategy
38:00 beforehand or do you plan the whole 26
38:03 miles and have a strategy and for London
38:05 what will that be or will you need to
38:07 improvise based on weather conditions
38:13 etc oh when I'm brought interest and it
38:17 relies on what how my training has been
38:20 but to be specific was you asked about
38:24 London is that in April I'm planning to
38:34 yes it's worth saying it's worth saying
38:37 this just about because all all we've
38:40 done so far is announced Mo Farah and Elliott
38:42 Elliott
38:45 but of course loads of other people have
38:47 been signed up and we just were just not
38:51 in to tell the story to win London is
38:53 harder than winning an Olympic Games the
38:55 best athletes in the world would be
38:58 there and not only they are the best
38:59 athletes because they're the best
39:02 athletes but they will be coming wanting
39:04 to be the very best athlete and the only
39:07 way they become the very best athlete is
39:11 to beat Elliott so so they will be they
39:14 will be sent there will be several guys
39:18 who were wanting to beat him
39:22 significantly so he's going into a
39:24 competition knowing that people want to
39:27 knock him off his perch knowing that
39:29 he's in a race where he's already got
39:31 very close to breaking the world record
39:34 and and perhaps if he had been looking
39:37 at the clock a bit more and maybe did a
39:41 bit less waving down the home straight
39:44 then then maybe he would already be the
39:49 world-record holder but these things
39:56 happen so I believe in and he missed out
39:57 on the world-record bonus as well by the
40:01 way just just just were no takane he's
40:04 waving to his friends and mum cost him a
40:08 hundred thousand dollars right so you
40:11 know don't think it doesn't matter but
40:13 so so if the weather is good in London
40:16 he will have a stiffest competition that
40:19 is possible and when he says beautiful
40:24 race I I take that to mean if he has to
40:27 beat the world record to beat the others
40:30 then that of course goes without saying
40:34 so I have I look forward to it with
40:36 anticipation and I've seen loads of
40:37 these right I've seen loads of London's
40:40 and I can't remember being as excited as
40:42 I am now
40:45 looking forward to to April great thank
40:47 you for that question
40:55 yeah let's go to you in the glasses hi
40:57 Elliot thank you so much I'm really
40:59 inspired thank you very much for sharing
41:01 your tips as well on you know on the
41:03 importance of discipline but I'm really
41:04 interested in being someone who's so
41:07 super focused where as balance come in
41:10 you know sometimes you can be pursuing
41:12 one particular goal and neglect
41:15 everything else and so I'm interested in
41:18 how you maintain a good balance while
41:20 still pursuing you know your goals
41:26 Thanks I think concerning actually the
41:28 concentration and out one toe to toe
41:31 paleness was what I have in my pot hands
41:39 is you know in sport there we turn we
41:41 have a total concentration and we call
41:44 it cool concentration cocoon
41:49 concentration in sport is whereby you
41:54 think about a sport in a positive way so
41:59 my mind actually fixed on the sport
42:02 focused on my trainings and above all
42:07 like I'll I'm really stuck on my
42:10 workouts and all my programs I am doing
42:13 it to the perfection it's like when I
42:15 miss the one it's like missing a
42:19 discussion well like class mess and you
42:22 miss a discussion rabbi maybe you had a
42:24 group of six people discussing a subject
42:26 and I miss one twin then I will not even
42:33 great thank you thank you that question
42:41 yeah great jumper
42:44 thanks for coming speak today I'm a
42:45 professional squash player and the most
42:47 I've ever done in my training is loads
42:50 of 400 or 600 s slightly designed to
42:53 mimic a squash rally the one benefit of
42:54 that is you know the pains not far away
42:57 from ending at what point do you hit
42:58 that pain in a marathon and how do you
43:01 manage it throughout two hours
43:10 potentially Oakley own to say that I'm
43:12 really when I have a lot of pain fast
43:15 let me started pain I'm trying to
43:17 convince my mind to forget about pain
43:23 pain but ting on the distance when I
43:24 think on that system
43:27 I am trying all means to go to that
43:31 distance was I turned that pain to be in
43:34 my mind and now folk and a little loose
43:39 focus on what won't Ronnie so I'm really
43:41 concentrating purely on the distance and
43:45 forget the pain but after winning then
43:49 you you you will not have that be but it
43:51 comes later because marathon is hot and
43:54 you know the second day you don't go up
43:58 the stairs or don't understand when
44:00 you're focusing on that distance do you
44:03 break it down or do you think okay 30
44:05 miles to go 12 miles today ago or do you
44:07 think okay let's just get next month
44:09 then the next mile in Marathon actually
44:13 the first half is just no more rap you
44:14 don't concentrate even on the first year
44:18 that's that's in month marathon starts
44:20 after that when you are still running 15
44:23 K 20 K then you have you are everybody
44:27 say where the marathon starts is after
44:30 30 kilometers that's why you feel pain
44:32 everywhere in you important the muscle
44:38 is really aging and the most prepared
44:42 and well-organized athlete is really is
44:44 doing well after 30
44:48 I personally own Khan III don't I don't
44:51 say ten kilometers all to this 20
44:52 kilometer thought I will call it the
44:55 pace but after that kilometers I'll
44:58 change my own pace and if you are ready
45:05 great thank you for that question
45:15 yeah let's come down to ye thanks very
45:18 much for the talk so my question was
45:19 regarding the self discipline you
45:21 actually talked about so I was wondering
45:24 that how strictly do you follow the self
45:27 discipline in your routine and and
45:29 because you are actually you want to
45:31 break the world record to make new world
45:33 records and it's actually usually a
45:34 matter of seconds and sometimes
45:36 milliseconds so how strictly do you like
45:39 follow and you actually look at at your
45:42 goal and then and sometimes when you
45:45 miss your recently short term goals and
45:52 what would you do then what about this
45:55 in my mind is infront of my head that's
46:00 in front of my mind but to be self
46:03 discipline is that I'm really committed
46:06 to training that's why I'm really in the
46:09 common Monday to Saturday and I told
46:14 miss any chance of training I told miss
46:16 any chance of fitness and that's the
46:19 sign actually of of for a really aiming
46:24 Tran a world record in truck I'm really
46:27 going die till time as well by koja say
46:31 in long run I'm really ornate it's 40
46:34 kilometers then be training or or or
46:38 really or no training then I'm doing to
46:41 the perfection concerning when I miss a
46:44 world record I don't regret when I miss
46:47 our ultra good I don't complain if I
46:49 recruit and complained at the sign of
46:53 self in discipline so
46:56 I was born and raised in a society
47:01 whereby they they actually make an
47:04 example of a tree that tree as a lot of
47:06 branches and when we are going up is
47:09 still each branch so when you have a
47:12 political copula and a top-ranked you fo
47:15 get that branch in for the next if I
47:19 miss our electrical I forget it I am for
47:23 the next one great
47:24 we have time for one wait maybe three
47:30 more yeah let's come to you hi um in an
47:32 earlier occasion you'd said that running
47:34 for you is less about the legs and more
47:37 about the heart in the mind and I'm
47:39 curious about I mean there's a lot of
47:40 information available on how a runner
47:43 can train their legs but not so much on
47:44 how one should go about training their
47:46 mind so how do you go about training
47:48 that and what is your advice to another
47:50 runner on how you forget the right mind
47:57 game before iran i thinik really
48:00 physical training and mental training
48:05 both of them are important but you can
48:10 be fiscally fit but psychologically poor
48:16 and you cannot win it if that if you aim
48:19 ran and 5,000 meters maybe at a time of
48:22 14 minutes even if you are fit of
48:24 running that 13 and a half minutes and
48:27 your mind actually is poor then you can
48:30 run 16 minutes but you are fit ran that
48:35 in 30 that's why i'm saying i am not
48:37 running on my legs alone but i am
48:39 running on my head with my heart and my
48:46 mind but during the time of training you
48:52 should be physically fit and mental
48:56 fitness actually plays a big role during
49:00 competition you know if you don't rule
49:08 that's the way I'm taking this boat
49:11 great thank you for that question that
49:13 is all we have time for I say please
