Physically, I felt incredible. I literally felt like I was floating, like I wasn’t getting tired. When I reached the upper section, I even thought: “You’re going bolt to bolt,” “this is the moment to do it.” I won’t deny that this took something away from me at some point. But at the same time, I quickly got back into flow by telling myself: “Now stay focused,” “execute every detail.” I’ve worked a lot on that mental side, and thanks to that, I was able to keep going and use those thoughts in a positive way.

I honestly felt like those were the best four minutes of climbing of my life, I had never felt so fit. [7]
