[Music] [Applause] [Music] hello everybody and welcome to Switzerland what’s up [ __ ] it’s Mitch oh sorry maybe the video should just start of me 10 seconds just drinking the ag1 just to give him a proper plug no cuz that’s not the type of YouTube channel we are we are not the type of YouTube channel where we’re just like doing these disgusting promotion kind of shuts [Music] [Applause] [Music] now so in all seriousness um welcome to Switzerland uh welcome to a new video uh we’re going to drop some dope shots uh or we were supposed to but Mitch is apparently made of sugar so um he will not go outside if it’s raining if it’s snowing and if it’s beneath 10° celius so um it’s going to be tough he’s going to shoot everything from my apartment uh I don’t know what why I booked him but uh apparently that’s uh that’s how how it works in the film industry you have uh you have rights or at least M you’re trying to tell me you have rights so and now Mage he’s trying from another angle because he is so [ __ ] at going outside and shooting outside so he’s going to do anything possible to make cool shots in the apartment I’m going to post the picture that I took yesterday I don’t care I’m not I’m not going to let Mitch have had two days now and he’ve made basically two cool shots two days when did I get here you remember the first day when you forgot all your stuff to the pool so I paid you 18 EUR for to get into the pool and you couldn’t do anything did I not do anything how about taking it’s boring it’s boring to take photos from above oh my God I’m kidding it’s good to have Mitch here so in this video you’re just going to see a bunch of cool stuff I’m going to tell you what I’m doing or try to tell you what I’m doing to be honest um it’s basically like coming out of off season for me right now so uh since you saw me the last time I’ve struggled a bit with uh my back um trying to get that one fixed uh it’s a progress uh it’s in progress and it’s a long process it’s getting better so that’s cool and I can do like all three disciplines and also strength training that’s been a something I have to do now even though I hate it but I I love swim bik and run so I have to do strength training to do that [ __ ] yeah so you’re going to see where I’m at fitness-wise that’s not really exciting uh but the setting here is very exciting so we’re going to focus on that the next six weeks is uh training camp for R um so this is basically the only thing you’ll see before R rth because Mitch will not visit me here again um in between that we have a smaller race in rabbitville if I get ready for that one uh cuz I want to punch the CET to uh New Zealand later this year um and also because my family is going to be here my dad lives in surich um so my whole family will basically come and watch if if I raise it and that would be pretty epic even though how fat I am then it will be still be fun and who’s here coach is here he’s working all the time he haven’t slept for 3 days because he’s working so hard that’s how it is to be hired in the university in Denmark uh um I’m not going to comment on the salary but you work your ass off uh to actually do

and like with the sense W I guess you’re going to do that one again yeah one or two times yeah maybe let’s go oh [ __ ] that’s that’s what life’s [Music] about hello I’ve uh given Mitch restraining order he can’t longer film in the premises because uh he’s not good at following rules there is some stuff he can’t film in there unfortunately he did and now you will be the victims of that I’m enjoying a little uh a scoop of ag1 and the solid Colombian roast light roasted um I love life this is good and now you’re going to hear a speech for the next 20 minutes about me and my childhood I grew up west of Copenhagen in glop my mom and dad uh was divorced when I was born some say it was because of me but they only say that to hurt me and just you know everybody who’s trying to hurt me I hurt myself way more than you will ever imagine so you can’t even come close to do anything that could hurt me uh that’s actually not true there is a couple of people who could do something to hurt me but uh and please don’t I’m I’m a very fragile soul I have no clue what to say it’s just just rambling shamb come up again I so you’re the former National coach right and you only coach Daniel beckard and rumor is you’ll never coach somebody else what’s so special about Daniel’s soal Pace on this 10K anything is is anything we have we have like very good chemistry I think yeah I think that’s that’s it I think we understand each other pretty well so um yeah and I guess I’ve learned to know Daniel’s physiology so I think we actually both have learned to to read the signals and know when to to relax and recover and know when to push on so yeah I think that’s that’s developed over the years m and then of course I feel that I can fill out the role as his father as well or not not his real father of course I have three or four FS yeah am I that says more about Daniel than it says about anyone [Music] else so we’ll go to the the small town just down the road and then we’ll do some Hill reps five or six times 1K uphill and then an easy 1K downhill in between each so around like the threshold one or something like that so we’ll see how it goes and decide out there how much we’re going to do yeah and then what’s after the run then we’ll have a short break and we’ll go to the pool and then eventually we’ll go and have a pizza I think man it wasn’t nothing like that first time she was in my MTH class long hair brown skin with the fat ass sat beside me used to laugh had mad jokes the teacher always got mad so we pass notes it started off so innocent she had a VI and a [ __ ] started digging it I was a young and straight crushing trying to play this [ __ ] cool but a [ __ ] couldn’t wait to get to school cuz when I seen them thighs on it and them hips on it and them lips on it got me Day Dreaming man what I’m thinking how she rides on it if she sits on it if she licks on it make it hard for me to stand up as time goes by a tracks getting deeping wet dreaming thinking that I’m smashing but I’m sleeping I want in bad and I ain’t never been obsessed before she wrote a not that said you ever had sex before damn and I ain’t never did this before no and I ain’t never did this before no and I ain’t never did this before no and I ain’t never did this before no and I ain’t never did this before no I ain’t never did this before no and I and I I wrote back and said of course I had sex before knowing I was FR I said I’m like a pro baby knowing I was stuned but if I told the truth I knew that I get played out son hadn’t been in [ __ ] since the day I came out one but she don’t know that so she done wrote back and told me oh you a pro homie well I want you to show me my mama gone for the weekend so Saturday baby we can get the freakend that’s when my heart start racing and my body start sweating baby you don’t woke my little man up I’m thinking how that body look naked when you L on the bed teacher please don’t make me stand up I wrot back like yeah baby sound like a plan still trying to play it cool sound like the man but I was scared to death my [ __ ] my stach DN so uh people ask me what kind of tires I normally use um so it’s always viable obviously one thing I have to point out is especially the uh the gravel tires actually uh because coming here to St marit you know I’ve always uh ritten a lot of gravel because I love it um it’s cool and also cars in Denmark are [ __ ] so it’s nice to get away from the from the road um and so I’ve I’ve been experimenting with a lot of different gravel tires and setups and the the g195 they are even though it’s a two wheel it feels like a freaking four-wheel drive when you ride it cuz you can go through everything and anything um they ride good they are fast grip is awesome and um I’m yet to puncture on a on a a set of uh of tires so uh I think that’s that speaks for [Music] itself who put in more work you or Daniel I certainly did man that was a tough one actually I did intervals today did you Mitch by the way kind of kind of you could say now I can’t remember what I’ve told you before but you’ll just get it again so after Singapore I went to SIU with uh Carl I can tell you for sure if I hadn’t had Carl there I wouldn’t make it out of the Philippines alive uh that that was freaking insane nice place though like I’ve never met happier people than the Philippines they are so such beautiful souls like so like motivating and they had like a street party when we were there it was just awesome to to see how they all came together and and did a huge even though the music was [ __ ] but then again they probably also think Danish rap music is [ __ ] um it was just it was just cool to see then I went to Tokyo and guys Tokyo that is like if if there’s one place in the world you have to see and have to go it’s Tokyo that’s the most epic like Japan is the most epic country in the world and I think no doubt Tokyo is the coolest City I’ve ever been to it was one of the best weeks in my life no doubt then I came home I so I had a freaking insane trip back home I I flew from from uh Tokyo to syk I took the car in syk drove the whole night because I was jet likeed so I thought why not to Denmark um 11 hours it took yeah then I had a couple of days in Denmark seeing some family getting treatment getting a scan as well and then I packed up most of my stuff and arranged it uh the rest of my stuff and then I drove in my car back to Switzerland what a scenery to uh to be training training in um and getting back to into it it’s insane some of the clips M you’re going to put up now it’s like this is every day of my life seeing stuff like that and that’s a major part of why I moved here the fact that everywhere you look is a postcard and in general I feel like the culture of being outside and being active is just another thing than I’ve tried it anywhere else and now M you’re telling me to cut it uh I I’ve only gotten halfway you know I’m very good at telling you about my life and apparently we also need some Str structure on the video uh so the swim session will be quite easy we come almost directly from a pretty hard run session in the forest so uh yeah Casper thought it was hard on the bike supporting bike I thought it was kind of easy I can feel it I’m going to swim fast in these not today but eventually not today and maybe not tomorrow but someday keep grinding keep working hard keep doing balance drills [Music] in the fres n [Music] [Music] my [Music] the CL for H me hold heart H me go yeah [Music] sing SK some blow SK thanks for watching Everybody um I’ll see you soon and in the meantime remember to keep calm and strike hard be the [ __ ] greatest oh I can’t drop it
