Quotable Moments:

"I set an intention without necessarily expectations of it. The intention is to try and hit the goal the best way that I can. And if I don't accomplish that, I'm not beating myself up.” - Tray 00:29:41

"If I deviated from that plan in any way, I felt like I've messed the whole plan up, and I would not want to continue it. I would say I'm going to start fresh again on this day, and then you just blow it.”- Tray 00:35:38
