all yodel, concerts, for now, all they can do is reminisce about the good old days. this is a debate do give you news coming up next. physically challenge the athletes take on an obstacle race designed to challenge able bodied competitors in our show sports life. that's next on the spice, or thanks for watching. what's the secret behind this classic music percent. as soon as you hear beethoven lose your mind, or the story behind the music was for the ages.
10:17 am
that is what i call inclusion. being probably the only person in the race with this impairment is no problem for me. that i can take part with people with no impairment. and i picked the event by chance is rising for years i've been able to somehow go beyond my physical boundaries. and i know as a joke, someone said i should take part in the tough mudder. think coronavirus came now as the mud masters and taking part in the mud masters makes me want to show
10:18 am
that everything is possible if you want it. maybe i can help a few other people with a similar impairment do something they've never had the confidence to try before. best of luck on sunday for my daily routine includes a lot of working out. so over 5 days i complete around 30 hours of training, training up so and the must master is a classic obstacle race, an obstacle course through mud. there are 37 obstacles over 16 kilometers and some in water or much you have to climb up walls, swing along ropes, and cross the bars, hand-over hand and also crawl through mud under wires with electric shocks.

but also sleeping on my feet need to get past the word now and the team competing with me, did me persuading they were up for it. the only question was getting a couple more to complete the team. we knew we'd need 6 helpers, plus me a team of 7, but it didn't take long. and the ones almost half of the team who be doing the run with me are my regular helpers and i know the others are just participants. we are entering the most common discipline, managing the obstacle course. we haven't set ourselves a time. i just worked out roughly how much time we'd need, as it could take up to 5 hours. of our goal is simply to make the finish line and achieve something amazing that theoretically no one else in my situation has done
10:20 am
and i get off telling my, let it go and so on. because ago when you know better, definitely it's looking good. really feel good because it would be bad if you could make it. i'll make my daily target of one that's not really fit in with the thought about special techniques. like the best way for the guys to carry me a line in physics. and it's going to be 12 kilometers for them. and it needs to be relatively comfortable for me too. when i think we'll use the army technique carried across their shoulders, often 400 climbing. weird. well
10:21 am
if it's hard to turn my hands the right way around and keep swinging it into things, as i'm unable to fully stretch my arms, my hold would depend on muscle tension. so they have to be to help us with me on the bars in the night and in one second, 100. so i head for the interest and ok if it's not working as i expected and it's too risky, then i'll have the climbing project. i've got planned in a couple of months in the back of my mind,
10:22 am
and i will be careful to keep that risk as low as possible. so i know i'll take care of the music. i just have to work out what we're taking. otherwise it's, we're taking journey to isengard on a continuous loop, which we have anyway. the book of sports is my passion and pace. so it's not an issue of max loves it. yeah. i
10:23 am
however tough it is on sunday i'm going to make it yeah. it's amazing being here, after not knowing for the last 6 months, whether we take place, it's amazing having this team and the weather's good. i mean, i don't have sure we'll get dirty, but that's the point. the guy lit up on yeah, i guess last night was the 1st time i was nervous. i didn't go to bed, but i couldn't sleep. but whatever i've got to do it was i think it's cool that i get to take part with people with no impairment. that's what i call inclusion
10:24 am
even, you know, plenty of motivation and if i start flagging, i have the guys to shout at me. so i have to carry on and i figured i could do 500 metres sections at a time using my hands. after those 500 meters, i get carried by my 16 mates to one and a half kilometers. and we do the obstacles together. what i think he wants with the slot, i thought i'd never try that on my own when he had, i mean stefan
10:25 am
understood, kind of but i wasn't worried because stefan has tons of experience for the impact of the bottom was a surprise. it really hits your back, but it was cool. this month marks this is really good preparation for my climbing project in rio. and it's a massive test of my body. giving my all for 5 hours is an incredible strain. even when i'm being carried. even then i have to keep my muscles tense up until the league. you know, my issues with the orthorexic won't end as long as i'm dependent on them for
10:26 am
assistance. and i don't, i hope one day that will no longer be the case. then as for the situation at the college, i'm sad to say that nothing has changed in terms of how people treat someone with my impairment. and i'm going to have to start if anything, i have the feeling that if you win medals and perform well, then people like that there have been times when i've told myself it was just my subjective opinion. even if i didn't believe that. but there have also been cases where i thought, ok, it can't just be in my head if there's an official inclusion. lecturer says he wants me in his course and asked me a few days later if i didn't have the time. but actually i did have the time,
10:27 am
i just hadn't been informed. and i question whether my feelings are really subjective at all. just enough. so picked this news on i need help, johnny come on. you said it would be a piece of cake. nice one johnny one. congratulations. we made it through every single obstacle. that's really it. i'm so proud of my team . it was so much fun. i could only have made it with
10:28 am
a great team and these guys were the real deal doesn't help people think. oh god, i think it's fantastic that we made the finish. i do it all again immediately. you know? everyone clapped when the source didn't matter when i was being carried. it was down on my hands. you know? no one thought it was stupid. it was a message for the rest of germany. i haven't thought this is integration. it makes me feel like a regular person who wouldn't get into joining is also fighting for his health, has to be paid 12 hours a day. his next adventure scaling sugarloaf mountain in rio in the summer of 2021.
