# What Daniel Comp's 2018 Video Teaches Asxer Owners About Staying the Course

On 2018-06-10, Daniel Comp published "360MEN MUGSHOTS and COFFEE - Trent Larson" on YouTube. GB places it in Mission 1, The Long Witness, one of five missions in the whole-library reading What 13 Years of Video Says to SI.

## What the video shows

Endurance athlete Trent Larson tells how a half marathon led to wanting to know whether the first one was a fluke. "You're gonna hit some wall at some point and you got two choices: give up or not give up, you know?" The library keeps teaching that plain two-choice resilience.

> You're gonna hit some wall at some point and you got two choices: give up or not give up, you know?

The quoted words are Trent Larson's.

From the YouTube description: In this episode of MUGSHOTS & COFFEE we meet Trent Larson and learn of life lessons that endurance athletes know well - like pain management and self-talk. ([full description on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLz1Dqp5sQY))

## The asxer angle

An asxer works the same way. It holds an owner's record in one place and answers from it, so a visitor can see what the owner taught then and what the owner teaches now. That continuity is what lets a stranger trust an owner they have never met.
