It was October 13, 2012,
0
12936
3415
Tanggal 13 Oktober 2012,
00:16
a day that I will never forget.
1
16375
2114
hari yang tak akan kulupakan.
00:18
I was on my bike, pushing up what seemed like a never-ending barren hill.
2
18892
5516
Aku sedang bersepeda, menyusuri bukit tandus yang seakan tak berujung.
00:24
And it wasn't just any hill:
3
24432
1814
Dan ini bukan bukit biasa,
00:26
it was a 15-mile climb up to a town called Hawi
4
26270
3730
melainkan tanjakan sejauh 25 kilometer menuju kota bernama Hawi
00:30
on the Big Island of Hawaii.
5
30024
2181
di Pulau Besar Hawaii.
00:32
And it wasn't just any ride:
6
32776
1945
Dan ini bukan perjalanan biasa,
00:34
it was at the Ironman World Championship.
7
34745
2578
melainkan Kejuaraan Dunia Ironman.
00:37
I can still feel my muscles burning.
8
37926
2936
Aku masih bisa merasakan nyeri ototku.
00:40
I was struggling, tired and dehydrated,
9
40886
2548
Aku berjuang, kelelahan dan dehidrasi,
00:43
as I could feel the heat
10
43458
1626
dan bisa kurasakan hawa panas
00:45
emanating from the asphalt, measuring almost 98 degrees.
11
45108
3730
memancar dari aspal, yang hampir 37 derajat Celsius.
00:49
I was near the halfway point of the bike portion
12
49727
2318
Aku hampir separuh jalan etape bersepeda
00:52
of one of the most prestigious, longest,
13
52069
2959
di salah satu ajang lomba ketahanan satu hari
00:55
single-day endurance race events in the world.
14
55052
2635
paling prestisius dan paling lama di dunia.
00:59
Every year, during my childhood,
15
59346
1754
Setiap tahun, sewaktu kecil,
01:01
I watched this very race on TV in our family living room.
16
61124
2977
aku menonton lomba ini di TV ruang duduk keluargaku.
01:04
I sat next to my dad on our 1970s-style orange and brown sofa,
17
64680
4874
Aku duduk di sebelah ayahku di sofa oranye-cokelat model 1970-an,
01:09
and I remember being in utter awe
18
69578
1882
dan aku ingat luar biasa kagum
01:11
at how these athletes pushed themselves to their limit
19
71484
3024
menonton para atlet ini berjuang habis-habisan
01:14
in this grueling race.
20
74532
1331
di lomba yang melelahkan ini.
01:15
And just so you don't get the wrong idea,
21
75887
1969
Agar Anda tidak salah tangkap,
01:17
my family members weren't just spectators.
22
77880
2426
anggota keluargaku bukanlah penonton biasa.
01:20
They were incredibly athletic,
23
80330
2151
Mereka sangat atletis,
01:22
and I always participated from the sidelines,
24
82505
2998
dan aku selalu berpartisipasi dari garis pinggir,
01:25
cheering on my three siblings or handing out water at local races.
25
85527
4436
menyemangati ketiga saudaraku atau menyerahkan air di lomba setempat.
01:29
I remember wanting so badly to be able to compete, but I couldn't.
26
89987
4405
Aku ingat sangat ingin bisa bertanding, tapi tidak bisa.
01:35
Even though I couldn't play sports,
27
95475
1794
Meski aku tidak bisa berolahraga,
01:37
I decided to be active in my community.
28
97293
2214
kuputuskan untuk aktif di komunitasku.
01:39
I volunteered at the local hospital in high school.
29
99531
2863
Sewaktu SMA, aku menjadi relawan di rumah sakit setempat.
01:42
In college, I interned at the White House,
30
102418
3151
Saat kuliah, aku magang di Gedung Putih,
01:45
studied abroad in Spain
31
105593
1326
belajar di Spanyol
01:46
and backpacked through Europe all by myself
32
106943
2507
dan berkeliling Eropa membawa ransel sendirian
01:49
with my leg braces and crutches.
33
109474
1698
dengan penyangga kaki dan kruk.
01:51
Upon graduating, I moved to New York City for a job in management consulting,
34
111807
4425
Setelah lulus, aku pindah ke New York City untuk bekerja sebagai konsultan manajemen,
01:56
earned an MBA, got married
35
116256
1953
meraih MBA, menikah,
01:58
and now have a daughter.
36
118233
1856
dan kini punya anak perempuan.
02:00
(Applause)
37
120457
3354
(Tepuk tangan)
02:03
At age 28, I was introduced to the sport of hand-cycling,
38
123835
4366
Umur 28, aku dikenalkan dengan olahraga sepeda tangan,
02:08
and then triathlon,
39
128225
2011
lalu triatlon,
02:10
and by luck, I met Jason Fowler, an Ironman World Champion,
40
130260
4039
dan kebetulan, aku bertemu Jason Fowler, Juara Dunia Ironman,
02:14
at a camp for athletes with disabilities.
41
134323
2733
di kamp untuk atlet difabel,
02:17
And like me, he competed in a wheelchair.
42
137080
2794
Sepertiku, dia berlomba dengan kursi roda.
02:19
And with his encouragement, at age 34,
43
139898
3216
Dan dengan dorongannya, pada umur 34,
02:23
I decided to go after Kona.
44
143138
2204
kuputuskan untuk mengikuti Kona.
02:26
The Kona, or Hawaii Ironman
45
146291
1876
Kona, atau Ironman Hawaii
02:28
is the oldest Iron-distance race in the sport,
46
148191
3368
adalah lomba triatlon jarak ultra-jauh tertua,
02:31
and if you're not familiar, it's like the Super Bowl of triathlon.
47
151583
4126
dan jika Anda tidak familier, ini mirip Super Bowl-nya triatlon.
02:35
And the Ironman, for a wheelchair athlete like me,
48
155733
2358
Dan Ironman, bagi atlet kursi roda sepertiku,
02:38
consists of a 2.4-mile open-water swim in the Pacific Ocean,
49
158115
4186
terdiri atas berenang sejauh 3,8 kilometer di perairan terbuka Samudra Pasifik,
02:42
a 112-mile hand cycle ride in lava fields --
50
162325
3627
mengayuh sepeda tangan sejauh 180 kilometer di medan lava --
02:45
now, that sounds exotic,
51
165976
1405
mungkin terdengar eksotis,
02:47
but it's not as scenic as it sounds, and it's pretty desolate --
52
167405
3159
tapi tempatnya tidak seindah itu dan cukup gersang --
02:50
and then you top it off with a marathon,
53
170588
3048
dan diakhiri dengan maraton,
02:53
or a 26.2-mile run in 90-degree heat
54
173660
3621
atau berlari sejauh 42 kilometer dalam suhu 32 derajat Celsius
02:57
using a racing wheelchair.
55
177305
2133
menggunakan kursi roda balap.
02:59
That's right, it's a total distance of 140.6 miles using just your arms
56
179462
6571
Benar, total jaraknya 226,3 kilometer, dengan hanya menggunakan lengan
03:06
in less than 17 hours.
57
186057
2063
dalam waktu kurang dari 17 jam.
03:08
No female wheelchair athlete had ever completed the race
58
188596
3906
Belum pernah ada atlet wanita kursi roda yang menyelesaikan lomba itu
03:12
because of the strict, seemingly impossible cutoff times.
59
192526
3745
karena waktu pancung yang ketat dan sepertinya mustahil.
03:17
And so there I was,
60
197034
1195
Dan di sanalah aku berada,
03:19
putting it all out on the line.
61
199102
2179
berjuang habis-habisan.
03:21
And when I finally reached the top of that 15-mile climb,
62
201967
3545
Dan ketika akhirnya tiba di puncak tanjakan 24 kilometer itu,
03:25
I was discouraged.
63
205536
1610
aku patah semangat.
03:27
There was no way I was going to make that swim in my time limit
64
207170
3881
Tidak mungkin aku menyelesaikan etape renang dalam waktu
03:31
of 10 and a half hours,
65
211075
1151
sepuluh setengah jam,
03:32
because I was almost two hours off pace.
66
212250
3745
karena aku ketinggalan hampir dua jam.
03:36
I had to make the agonizing decision
67
216365
3348
Aku terpaksa membuat keputusan menyakitkan
03:39
to quit.
68
219737
1150
untuk berhenti.
03:41
I removed my timing chip, and I handed it over to a race official.
69
221300
4166
Aku mencopot cip pencatat waktu, dan menyerahkannya kepada panitia lomba.
03:45
My day was done.
70
225490
1672
Hariku berakhir.
03:48
My best friend Shannon and my husband Shawn
71
228377
2856
Sahabatku Shannon dan suamiku Shawn
03:51
were waiting at the top of Hawi to drive me back to town.
72
231257
3555
menunggu di puncak Hawi untuk mengantarku kembali ke kota.
03:54
And on my way back to town, I began to cry.
73
234836
2640
Dan selama perjalanan pulang, aku mulai menangis.
03:58
I had failed.
74
238191
1150
Aku telah gagal.
04:00
My dream of completing the Ironman World Championship
75
240111
3754
Impianku menyelesaikan Kejuaraan Dunia Ironman
04:03
was crushed.
76
243889
1699
pupus sudah.
04:05
I was embarrassed.
77
245612
1414
Aku malu.
04:07
I felt like I'd messed up.
78
247050
2380
Aku merasa hancur.
04:09
I worried about what my friends, my family and people at work
79
249454
3501
Aku mencemaskan pendapat teman-teman, keluarga, dan rekan kerjaku
04:12
would think of me.
80
252979
1222
tentang aku.
04:14
What was I going to put on Facebook?
81
254225
2635
Apa yang akan kupasang di Facebook?
04:16
(Laughter)
82
256884
1150
(Tertawa)
04:18
How was I going to explain to everyone
83
258058
1968
Bagaimana aku menjelaskan pada semua orang
04:20
that things didn't go the way I had assumed or planned?
84
260050
3046
bahwa situasinya tidak berjalan sesuai rencana?
04:23
A few weeks later I was talking to Shannon about the Kona "disaster,"
85
263796
4579
Beberapa minggu kemudian, aku mengobrol dengan Shannon tentang "musibah" Kona,
04:28
and she said this to me:
86
268399
1262
dan dia berkata:
04:30
"Minda, big dreams and goals can only be realized when you're ready to fail."
87
270546
4921
"Minda, mimpi besar dan cita-cita hanya dapat terwujud jika kau siap gagal."
04:36
I knew I had to put that failure behind me in order to move forward,
88
276033
3913
Aku tahu aku harus melupakan kegagalanku untuk terus maju,
04:39
and it wouldn't be the first time that I had faced insurmountable odds.
89
279970
4057
dan ini bukan pertama kalinya aku menghadapi rintangan sulit.
04:44
I was born in Bombay, India,
90
284752
1941
Aku lahir di Bombay, India,
04:46
and just before my first birthday, I contracted polio,
91
286717
3762
dan persis sebelum ulang tahun pertama, aku terkena polio,
04:50
which left me paralyzed from the hips down.
92
290503
2753
yang membuatku lumpuh dari pinggul ke bawah.
04:53
Unable to care for me, my birth mother left me at an orphanage.
93
293970
3888
Tak sanggup merawat, ibu kandungku meninggalkanku di panti asuhan.
04:58
Fortunately, I was adopted by an American family,
94
298538
2730
Untungnya aku diadopsi sebuah keluarga Amerika,
05:01
and I moved to Spokane, Washington
95
301292
1973
dan aku pindah ke Spokane, Washington
05:03
just shortly after my third birthday.
96
303289
1982
tak lama setelah ulang tahun ketiga.
05:05
Over the next few years, I underwent a series of surgeries
97
305753
3048
Beberapa tahun berikutnya, aku menjalani serangkaian operasi
05:08
on my hips, my legs and my back
98
308825
2809
di pinggul, kaki, dan punggung
05:11
that allowed me to walk with leg braces and crutches.
99
311658
2920
agar aku bisa berjalan dengan penyangga kaki dan kruk.
05:15
As a child, I struggled with my disability.
100
315432
3162
Sewaktu kecil, aku sulit menerima cacatku.
05:19
I felt like I didn't fit in.
101
319196
2174
Aku merasa tidak bisa membaur.
05:21
People stared at me all the time,
102
321788
2234
Orang-orang selalu memandangiku,
05:24
and I was embarrassed about wearing a back brace and leg braces,
103
324046
3477
dan aku malu harus mengenakan penyangga punggung dan kaki,
05:27
and I always hid my chicken legs under my pants.
104
327547
3094
dan aku selalu menyembunyikan kakiku di balik celana panjang.
05:30
As a young girl, I thought thick, heavy braces on my legs
105
330977
3430
Sebagai gadis remaja, aku merasa penyangga kaki yang tebal dan berat
05:34
did not look pretty or feminine.
106
334431
1975
tidak terlihat cantik atau feminin.
05:37
Among my generation, I am one of the very few individuals in the US
107
337465
5174
Di generasiku, aku satu dari sangat sedikit orang di AS
05:42
who are living with paralysis by polio today.
108
342663
2468
yang menderita lumpuh akibat polio.
05:45
Many people who contract polio in developing countries
109
345690
3111
Banyak penderita polio di negara berkembang
05:48
do not have access to the same medical care, education,
110
348825
3548
yang tidak mendapat akses ke pelayanan kesehatan, pendidikan,
05:52
or opportunities like I have had in America.
111
352397
2809
atau peluang seperti yang kudapatkan di Amerika.
05:55
Many do not even live to reach adulthood.
112
355880
2691
Bahkan banyak yang tidak mencapai usia remaja.
05:59
I have the humbling knowledge that, had I not been adopted,
113
359362
3556
Aku sadar betul seandainya tidak diadopsi,
06:02
I most certainly wouldn't be in front of you today.
114
362942
2599
aku tidak akan ada di depan Anda hari ini.
06:05
I may not even be alive.
115
365565
2659
Bahkan belum tentu aku masih hidup.
06:09
All of us, in our own lives,
116
369541
2260
Kita semua, dalam kehidupan kita,
06:11
may face seemingly insurmountable goals.
117
371825
2961
mungkin punya cita-cita yang sepertinya sulit diraih.
06:14
I want to share with you what I learned
118
374810
2150
Aku ingin membagikan apa yang kupelajari
06:16
when I tried again.
119
376984
1150
setelah mencoba lagi.
06:19
One year after my first attempt,
120
379851
2802
Setahun setelah percobaan pertamaku,
06:22
on a sunny Saturday morning,
121
382677
2580
pada Sabtu pagi yang cerah,
06:25
my husband Shawn
122
385281
1235
suamiku Shawn
06:26
dumped me into the ocean at the Kona Pier
123
386540
2275
menurunkan aku di lautan di Dermaga Kona
06:28
and, with 2,500 of my closest friends and competitors,
124
388839
3538
dan, bersama 2.500 teman dekat dan sainganku,
06:32
we started swimming as that cannon went off promptly at 7am.
125
392401
3462
kami mulai berenang begitu terdengar aba-aba tepat pukul 7 pagi.
06:35
I focused on one stroke at a time, staying in between bodies,
126
395887
3245
Aku mengayuh satu demi satu, tetap berkonsentrasi,
06:39
counting my strokes --
127
399156
1214
menghitung kayuhanku --
06:40
one, two, three, four --
128
400394
2944
satu, dua, tiga, empat --
06:43
and lifting my head to sight every so often
129
403362
2033
dan sesekali mengangkat kepala buat melihat
06:45
just so I wouldn't get too off track.
130
405419
1985
agar aku tidak melenceng dari jalur.
06:47
And when I finally reached the shoreline,
131
407428
1954
Ketika akhirnya aku tiba di garis pantai,
06:49
Shawn picked me up, and he carried me out of the water.
132
409406
3320
Shawn mengangkatku dari air.
06:52
I was so stunned and thrilled when Shawn had told me I had managed
133
412750
4111
Aku begitu kaget dan gembira saat Shawn bilang aku berhasil
06:56
a one-hour-and-43-minute swim time.
134
416885
3813
menempuh waktu renang 1 jam 43 menit.
07:00
On to the bike segment.
135
420722
2024
Pada etape sepeda,
07:03
I had eight hours and 45 minutes to complete the 112-mile bike course.
136
423554
5904
aku menyelesaikan jarak 180 kilometer dalam waktu 8 jam 45 menit.
07:09
I broke up the course in seven- to 10-mile segments in my mind
137
429968
3674
Di benakku, aku sengaja memecah rutenya menjadi 10 hingga 15 etape
07:13
just to reduce the enormity of the race.
138
433666
2303
hanya untuk mengurangi kedahsyatan lomba ini.
07:15
The first 40 miles, they clipped by as we benefited from a little tail wind.
139
435993
4595
Jarak 60 kilometer pertama cukup mudah karena kami terbantu dorongan angin.
07:20
By 4pm, I had made it to mile 94,
140
440612
4159
Pukul 4 sore, aku tiba di kilometer 150,
07:24
and I did the math and I realized I was in serious time jeopardy
141
444795
3974
dan setelah berhitung, aku baru sadar waktuku dalam masalah besar
07:28
because I had 18 miles to go and less than 90 minutes,
142
448793
3270
sebab masih 29 kilometer yang harus kutempuh kurang dari 90 menit
07:32
and that included a few sizable hill climbs.
143
452087
3246
dan itu termasuk beberapa tanjakan yang cukup panjang.
07:35
I was stressed out, and I was scared
144
455357
1735
Aku sangat stres dan cemas
07:37
that I wasn't going to make that time cutoff again.
145
457116
2607
bahwa aku akan gagal lagi mencapai waktu pancung.
07:39
At this point, I pushed my internal voice aside that said,
146
459747
3801
Pada titik ini, aku berusaha menyingkirkan suara hati yang berkata,
07:43
"This hurts. Quit."
147
463572
2197
"Ini menyakitkan. Berhentilah."
07:45
And I told myself, "Minda, you better focus.
148
465793
2640
Dan aku berusaha berpikir, "Minda, kau harus fokus.
07:48
Focus on what you can control,
149
468457
1622
Fokus pada yang bisa kaukendalikan,
07:50
and that is your attitude and your effort."
150
470103
2591
yaitu sikap dan upayamu."
07:52
I resolved to be OK being uncomfortable,
151
472718
3604
Aku bertekad tak masalah merasa tidak nyaman,
07:56
and I told myself, "Push harder,
152
476346
1580
dan dalam hati aku berkata, "Dorong lebih keras,
07:57
forget about the pain,
153
477950
1309
lupakan sakitnya,
07:59
and keep that laser focus."
154
479283
2380
dan jaga fokus sungguh-sungguh."
08:01
For the next 90 minutes, I cranked as though my life depended on it.
155
481993
6094
Selama 90 menit berikutnya, aku berjuang seolah nyawaku di ujung tanduk.
08:08
And when I rolled into town,
156
488971
1723
Dan saat tiba di kota,
08:10
I heard on the loudspeaker,
157
490718
1674
dari pengeras suara aku mendengar,
08:12
"Minda Dentler is one of the last competitors to make the bike cutoff."
158
492416
4388
"Minda Dentler salah satu peserta terakhir yang tiba sebelum waktu pancung sepeda."
08:17
I did it!
159
497701
1150
Aku berhasil!
08:19
(Applause)
160
499289
4857
(Tepuk tangan)
08:24
By only three minutes.
161
504170
1778
Kurang tiga menit lagi.
08:25
(Laughter)
162
505972
1401
(Tertawa)
08:27
It was 5:27pm,
163
507397
3199
Saat itu pukul 17.27,
08:30
and I had been racing for 10-and-a-half hours.
164
510620
3332
dan aku telah berpacu selama 10 setengah jam.
08:34
The first 10 miles of the run went pretty quickly,
165
514696
2628
Lima belas kilometer pertama etape lari terasa cepat,
08:37
as I was so excited to finally pass people
166
517348
3381
dan aku gembira akhirnya bisa melampaui orang-orang
08:40
with my three wheels to their two feet.
167
520753
2985
dengan kursi roda tigaku.
08:43
The sun quickly went down,
168
523762
1333
Matahari terbenam dengan cepat,
08:45
and I found myself pulling up to the bottom of Palani hill,
169
525119
3760
dan sampai juga aku di dasar bukit Palani,
08:48
looking straight into a half-mile hill that looked like Mt. Everest
170
528903
3270
yang menghadap ke tanjakan sepanjang 1 kilometer mirip Gunung Everest
08:52
at mile 124 of the race.
171
532197
2405
di kilometer 200 lomba ini.
08:54
My friends and family were ready at their stations
172
534626
2421
Teman-teman dan keluargaku bersiap di posisi mereka
08:57
to talk me up that hill.
173
537071
2357
untuk menyemangatiku menaiki bukit itu.
08:59
I was struggling, tired,
174
539452
1508
Aku berjuang keras, kelelahan,
09:00
desperately gripping those rims just so I wouldn't tip backwards.
175
540984
3461
dengan susah payah mencengkeram pelek roda agar aku tidak terjengkang.
09:04
When I finally reached the top of that hill,
176
544469
2674
Ketika akhirnya mencapai puncak bukit,
09:07
I turned left onto a very lonely 15-mile stretch onto the Queen K Highway,
177
547167
5983
aku belok kiri dan tiba di Queen K Highway yang sunyi sepanjang 24 kilometer,
09:13
totally exhausted.
178
553174
1565
luar biasa lelah.
09:14
I pressed on, focusing on one push at a time.
179
554763
4675
Aku melaju, berkonsentrasi mengayuh satu demi satu.
09:20
By 9:30pm,
180
560386
1897
Pada pukul 21.30,
09:22
I made that final right-hand turn onto Ali'i Drive.
181
562307
4072
aku tiba di tikungan terakhir menuju Ali'i Drive.
09:26
I heard the crowd's roar, and I was overcome with emotion.
182
566403
3648
Aku mendengar sorak-sorai penonton, dan emosi membanjiriku.
09:30
I crossed that finish line.
183
570075
3112
Aku melewati garis finis.
09:33
(Applause)
184
573211
7000
(Tepuk tangan)
09:43
(Applause ends)
185
583037
1215
(Tepuk tangan berakhir)
09:44
And my final time was 14 hours and 39 minutes.
186
584276
4841
Dan total waktu tempuhku adalah 14 jam 39 menit.
09:49
For the first time in the 35-year history,
187
589823
3326
Untuk pertama kalinya setelah 35 tahun terselenggara,
09:53
a female wheelchair athlete
188
593173
1961
seorang atlet wanita berkursi roda
09:55
completed the Ironman World Championship.
189
595158
2564
menyelesaikan Kejuaraan Dunia Ironman.
09:57
(Applause)
190
597746
6893
(Tepuk tangan)
10:05
(Applause ends)
191
605879
1150
(Tepuk tangan berakhir)
10:07
And it wasn't just any female athlete.
192
607053
2459
Dan bukan sembarang atlet wanita.
10:09
It was me.
193
609536
1151
Tapi aku.
10:10
(Laughter)
194
610711
1333
(Tertawa)
10:12
A paralyzed orphan from India.
195
612068
3348
Anak yatim lumpuh asal India.
10:17
Against all odds, I achieved my dream,
196
617297
3694
Meski mustahil, aku meraih mimpiku,
10:21
and through this very personal commitment to myself,
197
621015
3357
dan melalui komitmen yang sangat pribadi ini,
10:24
I slowly realized that completing the Ironman
198
624396
3318
perlahan aku sadar, menyelesaikan Ironman
10:27
was about more than conquering Kona.
199
627738
2379
bukan sekadar soal menaklukkan Kona.
10:30
It was about conquering polio
200
630588
2053
Ini soal menaklukkan polio
10:32
and other disabling but preventable diseases,
201
632665
3931
dan penyakit melumpuhkan lain yang dapat dicegah,
10:36
not only for myself,
202
636620
1537
bukan hanya untukku,
10:38
but for the millions of children
203
638181
1580
melainkan untuk jutaan anak
10:39
who have been and still will be afflicted by vaccine-preventable diseases.
204
639785
5269
yang telah dan masih terserang berbagai penyakit yang bisa dicegah vaksin.
10:45
Today, we are closer than ever to eliminating one of those diseases
205
645539
4747
Saat ini tidak mustahil lagi untuk membasmi salah satu penyakit itu
10:50
everywhere in the world.
206
650310
1367
di mana pun di dunia.
10:52
In the mid-1980s, polio once paralyzed more than 350,000 children a year
207
652286
6705
Tahun 1980-an, polio melumpuhkan lebih dari 350.000 anak per tahun
10:59
in more than 125 countries.
208
659015
2649
di lebih dari 125 negara.
11:01
That amounted to a staggering 40 cases an hour.
209
661688
3858
Itu artinya 40 kasus setiap jam.
11:05
By contrast, so far this year,
210
665570
2267
Sebaliknya, tahun ini,
11:07
the last endemic countries have reported a total of only 12 cases.
211
667861
4174
negara-negara endemis terakhir melaporkan total hanya 12 kasus.
11:12
Since 1988, more than 2.5 billion children have been immunized against polio,
212
672997
6009
Sejak 1988, lebih dari 2,5 juta anak mendapat imunisasi polio,
11:19
and an estimated 16 million children,
213
679030
2356
dan diperkirakan 16 juta anak,
11:21
who otherwise would have been paralyzed like me,
214
681410
2656
yang jika tidak diimunisasi mungkin lumpuh seperti aku,
11:24
are walking.
215
684090
1265
bisa berjalan.
11:25
Despite this incredible progress,
216
685875
2101
Meskipun kemajuannya luar biasa,
11:28
we know that until it's eradicated,
217
688000
2452
kita tahu selama belum dibasmi,
11:30
polio remains a very real threat,
218
690476
2544
polio tetap menjadi ancaman serius,
11:33
especially to children in the poorest communities of the world.
219
693044
3839
terutama bagi anak-anak di wilayah termiskin di dunia.
11:36
It can reemerge in some of the most remote and dangerous places,
220
696907
3977
Polio bisa muncul kembali di sebagian tempat paling terpencil dan berbahaya,
11:40
and from there, it can spread.
221
700908
2230
dan dari sana, menyebar.
11:43
And so this is my new Ironman:
222
703987
3437
Jadi, inilah Ironman baruku:
11:47
to end polio.
223
707448
1833
memberantas polio.
11:50
And I am reminded every day,
224
710005
2293
Dan setiap hari aku diingatkan,
11:52
when I look at my two-and-a-half-year-old daughter Maya.
225
712322
3747
saat memandang putriku Maya yang kini berusia dua setengah tahun.
11:56
She is able to climb a ladder in the park,
226
716093
2508
Dia bisa menaiki panjatan di taman,
11:58
push her scooter or kick a ball across the grass.
227
718625
3127
mendorong skuternya atau menendang bola di lapangan.
12:01
Almost everything that I see her do at her age
228
721776
3296
Hampir semua hal yang kulihat bisa dia lakukan seusianya
12:05
reminds me of what I could not do at that age.
229
725096
3522
mengingatkan aku pada apa yang tidak bisa kulakukan seusia itu.
12:08
And when she was two months old,
230
728642
2112
Dan ketika umurnya dua bulan,
12:10
I took her to get her first polio vaccine.
231
730778
4189
dia mendapat vaksin polionya yang pertama.
12:15
And when the doctor came in the room to prepare the shot,
232
735791
3524
Dan ketika dokter datang ke ruangan untuk bersiap menyuntik,
12:19
I asked him if I could take a picture to document the moment.
233
739339
4327
aku bertanya apakah boleh memotret momen ini sebagai dokumentasi.
12:24
When we left the room,
234
744879
1463
Saat kami ke luar ruangan,
12:26
I could feel my eyes welling up with tears.
235
746366
3209
kurasakan air mataku menggenang.
12:29
I cried the entire way home.
236
749599
3216
Aku menangis sepanjang jalan pulang.
12:33
It was in that moment that I realized
237
753774
2524
Saat itulah aku tersadar
12:36
that my daughter's life would be very different from mine.
238
756322
3071
bahwa kehidupan putriku akan sangat berbeda dariku.
12:39
She will never be faced with the crippling disability of polio,
239
759417
3064
Dia tidak akan lumpuh akibat polio,
12:42
because a vaccine was available, and I chose to get her immunized.
240
762505
4605
karena vaksinnya tersedia, dan aku memilih dia diimunisasi.
12:47
She can do anything she wants,
241
767134
2817
Dia bisa berbuat apa pun yang dia inginkan,
12:51
as can each of you.
242
771066
2307
seperti halnya Anda semua.
12:53
(Laughter)
243
773397
1074
(Tertawa)
12:54
Now I'd like to leave you all with one question:
244
774495
2610
Sekarang saya ingin meninggalkan satu pertanyaan:
12:57
what is your Ironman?
245
777950
2642
apakah Ironman Anda?
13:01
Thank you.
246
781874
1151
Terima kasih.
13:03
(Applause)
247
783049
7000
(Tepuk tangan)
