Do cheaters feel like they are cheating on their secret partner when they are talking or being with their marital partner?

If a women was never in love with their partner and had children, do they still see their marital spouse in their kids, is there resentment? Just wanted to know if this was ever brought up?

Thank you for making space for this convo.

How do you recover from the dopamine drop/depression that occurs after doing big events? I often find it hard to get that same high that comes from performing a big strenuous accomplishment. Props for all you do!

I have completed a couple marathons and many halfs. The full is quite the distance and proper training is the only thing to help with covering that distance while running the entire way. BUD/s training is a frequent topic for the duds and I've always wondered how I'd do. My swimming is mediocre but my running is pretty good. Fastest full - 4hr5min fastest half - 1hr35min

Running a marathon is a long distance for the human body and most guys who go through BUD/s are in their early 20s so their body is very resilient. Our team is now in our 40s so the body doesn't want to recover as fast nor like the force to ground on the legs. Thank you for your service. I would imagine this testing event will be similar to our Hellweek but the goal is for all our athletes to finish without a washout rate due to injury.

I really appreciate your question. I have failed several times in things that I was and still am very passionate about. The key for me is to learn from each of those going forward because most of my failures have given me the answers to my future quests and my future quests have been more fulfilling than what I had originally planned. Don't let that emotion hold you back from pursuing your dreams, as failure usually means, continuing your mission but do it a different way.

Running long distances is part of SEAL training. How much more involved is a full marathon compared to the running and swimming done in SEAL training? I used to be a corpsman and that rate is a popular one for "Buds duds".

A very big and powerful plane. Getting there is not the issue. It's getting finished with testing as fast as can be and getting out of there is what we are shooting for. Nothing is for certain until game day on location.

Great question. Keeping the body fueled with the CORRECT amount of carbs and proteins and keeping as close to hydrated as possible. Using supplements from Thorne to ensure that our body is getting the appropriate levels of vitamins and minerals along with each of our athletes being on different protocols designed specifically for their body based on their blood, sleep, gut, and stress testing. Sleep is going to be very hard to fully achieve and with 184 miles of running in 7 days from mostly non-runners, what could possibly go wrong? Antarctica could and should be in the negative. It will be closing their summer so we pray it stays around zero degrees.
