How You Speak About Others

Above All, I Feel A Quiet Pride That For The Rest Of My Days I Can Look At Myself In The Mirror And Know That Once Upon A Time I Was Good Enough. Good Enough To Call Myself A Member Of The Sas. Some Things Don’t Have A Price Tag.

To Get Ready To Climb Everest, I Did A Lot Of Hill Running With A Daypack On And A Lot Of Underwater Swimming. I Would Swim A Couple Of Lengths Underwater And Then A Couple Above. It Gets Your Body Going With Limited Oxygen.
