| 0:03.4 | Recently, I was sitting there doing nothing when it hit me. |
| 0:06.7 | Climbing wasn't feeling the way it used to. |
| 0:09.0 | The Sends and the best day ever's just weren't quite as sparkly. |
| 0:12.9 | The click of the quick draw wasn't quite shining the jewels the way it used to. |
| 0:16.9 | That's when I asked Sportiva about running. |
| 0:19.9 | And Sportiva said, yeah, it's all right. J- swears by you know. And he climbs 515. And I said, hmm, you're still not quite selling it. And they said, quit being a wiss and try the Pedigio. And I said, no thanks. I had a big breakfast. And they said, no, dumbass. Pedigio is our line of next-gen mountain running shoes. And I said, okay, fine. It can't hurt. But I was wrong.

| 1:42.3 | and they were wrapped and entombed under 6 million tons of |
| 1:45.8 | cut limestone with those indestructible possessions so they could be useful in the afterlife. |
| 1:54.4 | Well, the folks at Yeti want you to think of their products the same way. You know, minus the |
| 2:00.4 | pulling the organs |

| 2:04.4 | We live in a time with too much cheap throwaway crap, pardon my French, and stuff like |
