Let's bring in our guests, the woman who just finished third at the 2023 Noble CrossFit Games, Ariel Lohen. Ariel, how you doing? I'm great. How are you guys? Fantastic. Has that sunk in yet? Third place at the games? No. No, I still have, like the first thing that comes to my mind when you say that is disbelief. And then I go back and look at pictures, look at videos.

And I'm like, okay, it happened.

Wow, that's cool.

But it'll hit me in random moments. And then I'll just start getting like, teary eyed. Like, what just happened? So I'm still coming to terms with reality. Well, you know, I would be remiss if I didn't talk right out of the gate of how your week started, right?

We were talking about this a little bit beforehand.

I'm currently sitting in an airport, which we actually have had the flight in together into Madison.

And you, Dylan, your husband and myself and Crystal Meacham all got to be a part of this crazy airport fiasco.

And did you feel like just kind of getting over that hump maybe or maybe just having that wildness to start your week?

Just kind of put everything the rest of what was in front of you at ease because you were so calm

that entire time.

Well, two parts to that. Part one, we're delayed in the airport like Tommy mentioned,

and Tommy's talking to Dylan, my husband. And Dylan straight up asked Tommy, while we're

delayed at like 11 p.m. at night, we're all delirious. He's like, Tommy, who's in your top five?

Who did you pick off Tommy? And. He's like, Tommy, who's in your top five? Who did you pick off

Tommy? And believe it or not, Tommy, I forgive you. I wouldn't have put me in there either.

Oh, that's great. So we, that happens, kind of lighthearted. We run into Crystal, hear her story.

It kind of put everything in perspective. Like, a delayed flight isn't that

bad. We could have a lot worse things going on. And the CrossFit people were all so flexible.

They're like, whenever you get here, check in. If it was a legit competition day, I would have

been a lot more stressed, but I knew they're still going to have my shirts. They're still going to

have my shorts. Like, life will go on. And then we were wild and me and Dylan, like, we never are without a kid. So we're like, let's go on an adventure. Let's sleep in the airport. Let's not get a lot. Oh my God. And we've never been able to do that before. So we're like, you know what, let's have a little fun in our life. So we, we upped in a notch and slept in the airport. I did. He did not sleep all night, but it was worth it. It was a good story. If I can defend myself.

No, we didn't. I was going to say, I want to defend myself because Dylan did ask me at like 11. Put me on the spot. It was almost midnight. And I said, I don't have, and I was honest. I said, I don't have Ariel in my top five. But he said, I said, I do have a range of where I had her put, like in terms of like a couple different ranks. I said six to eight was my spot. And both of you, to your credit, Dylan was like, if we're in six to eight, we had a great weekend. So let's go with that. So I'll defend myself there. I was the same way. I was not in my top three either. So no hard feelings there. So you weren't in your top three, but at what point of the weekend did you start to let that sink in?
