Where can you listen?

Sunday they clap. Monday they remember. Tuesday you start again.

A race finishes on Sunday. By Tuesday everyone has gone home and stopped thinking about it - and that's the day the athlete goes again, nobody watching.

I'm Anna Bednarczyk, ultra triathlete and Vice-President of IUTA. I ask people who race for days what they do once the applause stops. You don't need to know the sport. Here's what I think they can teach anyone. Nothing is built in the flashes - it's built invisibly, on a Tuesday.

Consistency, discipline, resilience and endurance, and what it's worth in an ordinary week.
