Among physical difficulties for a mountaineer, Edward mentions eating …
- bad quality food.
- few vegetables.
- less than necessary.
Presenter: What is more challenging in the process of climbing an 8,000-meter mountain, overcoming the physical or the psychological obstacles?
Edward Silver: I’d have to say both, because they go hand in hand. Clearly, the physical demands are tremendous. You have to have strength, and you have to have endurance. A lot of these expeditions can last for three months, and from the minute you set foot on that mountain. In many cases, you’re not getting stronger. You’re actually slowly consuming yourself. You’re deteriorating because you’re climbing at extreme altitudes. You’re not eating as well. And you’re using more calories per day than you’re regenerating. So, the endurance has to be there.
