這場戲：帶病攀上第十段
第 10 章 · 共 24 章 · 3'29"
上牆第三天，湯米和凱文帶著感冒爬到第十段，往後每段都硬核，於是決定 pace ourselves（控制節奏）；山下一小撮人架起望遠鏡圍觀，說這是 a moment in history（歷史性的時刻），還說自己 pull for someone（為他加油）好多年了。聊控制節奏、聊為別人打氣，這幾句都好用。

上牆第三天，湯米和凱文都病著——鼻子堵、嗓子疼、渾身酸——還是爬到第十段，接下來每一段都相當硬核，兩人決定 pace ourselves（控制節奏），一天只爬一段到兩段。山下草甸聚起一小撮人，架起望遠鏡看這場「正在上演的景象」，有人從薩克拉門托專程趕來，說這是 a moment in history（歷史性的時刻），也有人 pull for someone（為他加油）很多年；隨後暴風預警來了，風速五十英里、陣風七十五英里，吊帳被吹得亂飛，可湯米反倒 right at home（如魚得水）。想講控制節奏、講旁觀見證、講如魚得水，這些說法都能用。
