Ele ingressou no triathlon graças ao incentivo do tio e, durante os primeiros 15 anos, dedicou-se às provas curtas. Sua estreia em uma prova de Ironman em 2009, foi motivada por um boato sobre a eventual mudança de local do Mundial de Kona e veio acompanhada do título de campeão amador do Ironman Brasil — o passaporte para sua primeira experiência no mundial naquele mesmo ano. No ano seguinte, com uma preparação minuciosa, conquistou o título de campeão da sua faixa etária e o vice-campeonato mundial amador no Havaí. Após uma breve incursão como profissional, encerrou sua carreira em 2016, com 12 participações em provas na distâncias de Ironman. A paixão pelo esporte seguiu viva — estudou a corrida no Quênia, subiu o Aconcágua, nadou a 14 Bis e voltou a competir em provas de triathlon a partir de 2019. Desde então, venceu, como amador, diversas etapas do Troféu Brasil e provas no interior paulista. No ano passado, participou da desafiadora Leadville 100 milhas. Meu outro convidado, nascido em Minas Gerais e criado em uma fazenda, destacou-se desde cedo pela disciplina. Formado em Administração pela FGV, construiu uma trajetória de sucesso no mercado financeiro. Iniciou na corrida em 2010, participou da Comrades Marathon apenas dois anos depois e soma 14 maratonas no currículo. Em 2014, estreou no triathlon e, desde então, participou de 22 provas de Ironman, incluindo sete edições do Mundial do Havaí. Neste episódio, dois triatletas de alta performance que compartilham o gosto pelo desafio, valorizam a disciplina ao extremo e escolheram dedicar-se incansavelmente ao esporte: o engenheiro e industrial lemense Ciro Violin, e o empresário e publisher paraisense, Pedro Luiz Cerize.

Bongani Bingwa speaks with Dr Jeremy Boulter, Comrades Marathon Race Doctor, following a gruelling and emotional 98th edition of the iconic race. While tens of thousands of runners took on the ultra-marathon with the support of a vast Netcare medical team, the day was marked by tragedy, with two fatalities and several medical emergencies. Dr Boulter shares insight into the behind-the-scenes response efforts, from 1 a.m. until the final runner crossed the line and addresses difficult questions: Was the team prepared for everything that came their way? What can runners learn from this year's heartbreaks? The conversation also touches on the harrowing case of Moira Harding, the runner found in critical condition a day after the race. With years of experience, Dr Boulter offers a sobering but essential reflection on what worked, what didn’t, and how future races can be made safer for all. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

If you want to support, and learn, you can donate hereShow notesThis week on The Spotlight, we put big claims, bold performances, and comeback stories under the microscope.In Discourse Digest (00:00), we discuss why Beatrice Chebet's near-world record 5000m is not a miss, just a delay. Then we shift to the French Open, where Carlos Alcaraz outlasted Jannik Sinner in a classic. Gareth asks whether Sinner's loss might be exactly what tennis (and Sinner) needed, and how their rivalry and reputations will shape the sport's next era.Listener Lens (15:50) features a question from listener Simon, returning from an injury-enforced layoff. Ross offers guidance on regaining lost fitness, why retraining happens faster than we think (the 1:2 rule of thumb), and why doing less will eventually give you the right to do more.Center Stage (22:34) is all about carbs, fat, and fuel—sparked by a tweet from Prof Tim Noakes after the Comrades Marathon. Having watched the race, Noakes claimed that “not a single lead athlete tried to ingest 90–120g/hour of carbohydrates,” and that they “know they don't need carbs to win Comrades” because “fat can provide essentially all the required energy.” We put those claims under the Spotlight, and checked with the elites. Turns out, they were targeting exactly those carb intakes. We explore the science and discover a huge capacity to increase fat oxidation as a function of diet, training and exercise intensity. But that doesn't mean carbs don't matter - we dig into evidence that carbs improve performance, delay fatigue, and enhance recovery. The real problem? Extremes. Whether it's high carb or no carb, just because you can doesn't mean you should.And finally (53:44)—Padel and Pickleball are booming. Why are they so popular, and will they dethrone tennis as the world's favourite racket sport?LinksThe article Gareth discusses about Sinner's loss being a win for tennisExample of a study where retraining restores strength to pre-detraining levels in half the time taken to lose them (note this is a study on strength, but the principle remains)Our Podcast interview with Louise Burke, where she explains everything you need to know about fats and carbs, and why fat underperforms as a fuelThe Podlogar study discussed on the show, where we don't burn all the ingested carbohydratesBurke's race walker study, with fat oxidation rates three times higher after fat adaptation, but with reduced economy and impaired performance benefitsVolek's study on fat adapted distance runners, also showing huge fat oxidation capacity Hosted on Acast.

Registered dietician Marie McGregor from the Sport Science Institute of South Africa joins Lester Kiewit to discuss “bonking” — the sudden energy crash that can affect endurance athletes during tough events like the Comrades Marathon. Following recent reports of runner Moira Harding going missing near the finish line, there has been speculation about bonking as a possible cause. Marie stresses that we cannot speculate on what caused her condition, as there are many factors that can lead to confusion and distress in endurance athletes. In this conversation, she explains what bonking is, why it happens, key signs to watch for, and practical strategies to avoid it.

After the first ascent in May 2003 via the south side, on June 3 2005 he stood on top of the world again and this time he did it via the North Ridge—a more difficult and statistically less-successful side. Sibusiso has since completed the Seven Summits Challenge and stood at both the North and South Poles, making him the first African to achieve the Three Poles Challenge. Back then Sibusiso had hoped that his pioneering feat would be followed by many other black South Africans and Africans and that mountaineering would take root in more diverse communities.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Saturday morning, the 17th of May, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the Book of Hebrews 12:1-2:”Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Jesus finished His race! I want to speak to you today about one of the most gruelling marathon races on the planet. Yes, I am talking about the Comrades Marathon which is going to take place in a few weeks time. It is the Mount Everest of marathon races. In fact, it is two standard marathons, back to back, plus a few kilometres extra. I ran that race once, the downhill one from Pietermaritzburg to Durban but 14 kms from the end, I could view the Indian Ocean, I was on the outskirts of Durban, I collapsed, and was taken to hospital by ambulance and they put a drip in my arm. That happened because I did not eat and I did not drink sufficiently and, so I dehydrated.I want to tell you about a little bird. Yes, I am talking about the swallow. He is currently leaving South Africa and heading north to Europe for summer. That little bird, I don't know how much he weighs. He eats and drinks on the wing. He hardly ever stops. He catnaps on the wing, he is disciplined, and that little bird will fly all the way to Europe and then when the winter comes in Europe, he will fly all the way back down to South Africa. You and I must also be disciplined. We must spend time with Jesus Christ every single day if we are going to finish our race, and it is not a sporting race. It is a race of life and death. Many people start so well but they don't spend time with Jesus on the route and in the end they collapse and they fall by the way. Let's not do that today. Let's be disciplined like the swallow. Let's spend time with Jesus Christ. He is the source of all we need to eat and drink and we will finish the race strong!Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye.

Desde criança, o esporte sempre foi uma paixão. Tudo começou no futebol, aos 6 anos, na escolinha do Grêmio, mas foi no hipismo, aos 9, que encontrou uma vocação que o acompanharia por toda a vida. Apesar de nunca ter se profissionalizado, dedicou-se quase como um atleta de alto rendimento, competindo em categorias de base e principais, representando o Brasil em Copas das Nações e perseguindo o sonho olímpico. Mas sua história não para por aí. Aos 18 anos, mergulhou no mundo do Jiu-Jitsu, competindo em campeonatos nacionais e até no Mundial, no Rio de Janeiro. Ainda como faixa marrom, deixou o tatame temporariamente para se aventurar em outro desafio: a corrida. Em 2000, mudou-se para São Paulo e passou a correr na MPR, quando foi desafiado a completar 10 km em menos de 50 minutos. Apenas dois meses depois, cruzou a linha de chegada ainda com uma margem de 2 minutos. Em 2005, participou de sua primeira maratona, o que deu início a uma jornada que o levaria a completar 57 delas, incluindo 11 participações na icônica Maratona de Boston, sua prova mais especial. Nesse meio tempo, ainda teve energia para tentar realizar o sonho olímpico em outras duas modalidades: o Pentatlo Moderno e o Biathlon de Inverno, representando o Brasil em competições internacionais. Seu gosto por desafios parece não ter limites. Além de ter concluído as 6 Maratonas Majors duas vezes, participou de duas edições do Ironman de Floripa (2011 e 2012), cruzou a linha de chegada da Comrades Marathon em 7h31' (2014) e enfrentou o El Cruce de Los Andes três anos seguidos, conquistando um quarto lugar em 2015 Em 2017, realizou a façanha de completar a Maratona de Buenos Aires em menos de 3 horas, empurrando o carrinho da filha Gabi e em 2021, fez sua melhor marca na Maratona, cravando 2h45'57” em Valência. Conosco aqui, está o administrador, leiloeiro profissional, futuro massoterapeuta e multiatleta, que corre pelo prazer, pela sensação de liberdade, pelos amigos e pelos laços que constrói. Que corre porque é seu estilo de vida e um exemplo para sua filha. Um homem humilde, resiliente e obcecado pela corrida, o porto-alegrense Jacques Jochins Fernandes. Inspire-se!

Sermon Audio – Cross of Grace

Luke 19:28-40After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. When he had come near Bethphage and Bethany, at the place called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of the disciples, saying, “Go into the village ahead of you, and as you enter it you will find tied there a colt that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?' just say this, ‘The Lord needs it.' ” So those who were sent departed and found it as he had told them. As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?” They said, “The Lord needs it.” Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their cloaks on the colt, they set Jesus on it. As he rode along, people kept spreading their cloaks on the road. Now as he was approaching the path down from the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the deeds of power that they had seen, saying,“Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest heaven!”Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, order your disciples to stop.” He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the stones would shout out.” Why do we do hard things? Why do we voluntarily endure pain, like summiting mount everest, writing a novel, or finishing all the New York Times games, including Sudoku! I don't understand for the life of me why people run marathons… 26.2 miles? Hours of running just to run? And people pay money for that?! Why do we choose things that will undoubtedly bring us pain? Most of us are wired to pursue pleasure and avoid pain. We tend to choose activities with low cost and high reward. Effort is hard; pain isn't fun—so we try to reduce both whenever possible. We say we want things to be easy. But strangely, we often value the things that cost us something—things that ask more of us than we thought we had. We want some place or thing to pour our effort into. But why?There are a few theories. One is called the Effort Paradox. Ian Hutchinson wrote about it in The Atlantic recently. While effort is typically something we shy away from, it can paradoxically draw us in and enhance the value of what we're doing. Hutchinson gives the example of the Comrades Marathon - a 55 miles race in South Africa. But here is the kicker, you have twelve hours to complete it. Right at the twelve hour mark, a group of people link arms and block the finish line! You're not even allowed to complete the hell you've put yourself through. And yet, those who don't finish often come back year after year—because the effort itself is satisfying.We see this paradox elsewhere, too. Kids at play make up extra rules or obstacles, just to make the game harder—and more fun.Now Hutchinson admits the appeal of hard work varies among people. Some are motivated by the joy and purpose derived from tackling difficult tasks. But the Effort Paradox doesn't explain which hard things we choose, or why. Yes, effort can make us feel good and imbue a sense of value. But is that enough to explain the hard things we really choose? Things like parenting. Marriage. Leading a team. Starting a business. Caring for a dying parent. The pain isn't part of the appeal—so why do we stay in it?This is where our friend David Brooks offers a deeper take. He asks: how do people endure the most severe challenges and overcome the most alluring temptations? It's generally not through heroic willpower and self-control. If those faculties were strong enough, diets would work, and New Year's resolutions would be kept. No, we tend to endure great pain only when we are possessed by something more gripping, namely love. When something or someone seizes us, we can't help but fall in love. And love demands devotion. It animates us — but it also conquers us. It calls for persistence, obedience, and sacrifice. This is not just why folks get married but how they stay married. It's why you make a third breakfast for your toddler after he fed the first one to the dog and threw the second one across the table. It's why after decades you continue in the same vocation, no matter how maddening it may be at times. It's this kind of love—not satisfaction from a completed task—that makes hard things meaningful. And paradoxically, Brooks argues, the more we embrace difficulties in this life, rather than avoid them, the more meaningful, passionate, and purposeful this life becomes.So all week I kept asking myself: what seized Jesus? What love compelled him? Because that's the only way to make sense of what he does. Why would Jesus willingly make his way into Jerusalem? Why does he choose the pain that lies ahead? He doesn't just allow it—he pursues it. Why is he determined to face death?All week as I read the text, it just made little to no sense to me. Why would anyone get on a young donkey that has never been ridden and ride it down the side of a mountain? Have you ever ridden a horse or a donkey downhill? I have. It's terrifying. And that was on a trained animal! Jesus zigzags an untrained donkey down a steep slope to the very city where he knows he'll be crucified, all while seemingly celebrating the ceremonial chants of his kingship? What kind of king chooses this? What kind of God volunteers for death? Why would anyone, Jesus included, go through such effort? And, is there any effort greater than bearing the sin of the whole world with open arms? Than defeating death once and for all? It can't just be about grit. This isn't the kind of effort that brings satisfaction just because it was difficult. No, it has to be something else. It has to be that for some reason Jesus is captivated by love, a deep irradiating love for you, me, and all the world. A love that is beyond our logic of pleasure and pain. A love that is so animating and self-denying that it demands devotion and obedience, obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. That's what Palm Sunday is all about. It's not just the triumphal entry, but the choice to love us all the way to suffering and death. It's a celebration of such all-consuming love.This Holy Week, allow yourself to be consumed by that love. Let this story, which is about to unfold over the next few days, grip you. Let it captivate you, whether you've heard it eighty times or it's your first. Brooks says, “The capacity to be seized is a great and underappreciated talent.”So be seized—by this God in flesh, riding on a donkey to his death in order to give you and me life. Don't turn from the pain thats coming. If anything lean into - ponder it, see it for what it is - effort! Effort on your behalf. As one psychologist wrote, “effort is one of the things that gives meaning to life. Effort means that you care about something”. And it is Jesus' effort that gives meaning to our life, to your life. All through Lent, we try our best to do hard things, painful things; not because we want the satisfaction of doing something difficult, but because the effort is a sign of devotion, an outpouring of love. This week, take your practice one step further. If it's fasting, add a day, if it's not eating something, remove something else. If it's prayer, add more time. If it's generosity, give even more. And if you didn't start a practice—don't worry. It's not too late.Come to the prayer vigil. Make Maundy Thursday a priority—hear again the Last Supper and Judas' betrayal. Witness the pain of Good Friday. Feel it. It will make Easter Sunday all the more joyful!We do all of this not so that we will be loved, but to see and experience just how much you are loved already. Maybe—just maybe—you'll begin to feel the devotion that led Jesus to his death. Yes, I'm asking you to voluntarily choose pain this week. But paradoxically I think it will make the week all the better. As C.S. Lewis said “When pain is over, it is over, and the natural sequel is joy.” The same is true for this week. There will be pain. There will be death. And there will be resurrection. But let's not skip over the first two.Why do we do hard things? Because love demands it. And this week, Love rides in on a donkey, walks through betrayal, bears a cross, and cracks open a tomb. Let this love seize you.Amen.

A história deste casal é um excelente exemplo de como a dedicação, a superação e a cumplicidade podem ser transformadoras. Unidos há 27 anos, eles construíram uma vida marcada por conquistas pessoais, familiares e esportivas, além de desafios inimagináveis. Ele, nascido em São Sebastião do Paraíso, Minas Gerais, cresceu em uma fazenda simples e é o mais velho de sete irmãos. Desde cedo, aprendeu a valorizar o esforço e a dedicação. Ela, paulistana, veio de uma família de três filhos e cresceu em frente a um clube na Zona Norte de São Paulo, onde levou a sério o balé e, depois, seguiu os passos do irmão, jogando tênis. Ambos se formaram em Administração de Empresas, ela pelo Mackenzie e ele pela Fundação Getúlio Vargas, onde ingressou em quinto lugar. O mercado financeiro os levou a se conhecerem no banco onde trabalhavam. A paixão foi arrebatadora e, em poucos meses, decidiram se casar. Dois anos depois, vieram os gêmeos, seguidos por Maria Luíza alguns anos mais tarde. A vida familiar e profissional exigiu muita dedicação, e eles prosperaram. Em 2010, decidiram começar a correr juntos. A primeira corrida foi um marco: ele, muito competitivo, ficou para trás dela e, desde então, decidiu levar o esporte a sério. A partir daí, não pararam mais. Apenas dois anos depois, enfrentaram juntos uma das mais emblemáticas ultramaratonas do mundo: a Comrades Marathon, na África do Sul. Ele completou a prova em 7h28, e ela, que inicialmente deveria acompanhá-lo apenas nos quilômetros finais, decidiu se inscrever e treinar para concluir a prova, feito que realizou em pouco menos de 9 horas. Ele já completou 14 maratonas, com um recorde pessoal de 2h43, enquanto ela fez 13 maratonas, com o melhor tempo de 3h08. Mas os desafios não pararam por aí. Em 2014, ele fez sua estreia no triathlon, e ela o seguiu no ano seguinte. Desde então, ele participou de 22 provas de Ironman, incluindo sete edições do Mundial de Kona, no Havaí. Ela, por sua vez, completou oito provas de Ironman, com duas participações em Kona. Além disso, ela se destacou em provas de ciclismo, com um terceiro lugar no Granfondo La Campionissimo Sportive, em 2016, na Itália, e um quinto lugar no GFNY, em 2019. Juntos, encontraram no esporte uma forma de fortalecer o espírito e a parceria, enfrentar os desafios da vida e inspirar os filhos. Conosco aqui, ele, que se formou em Administração de Empresas, é publisher do site “O Antagonista” e empresário, figura de opiniões muitas vezes polêmicas e, para muitos, um guru do mercado financeiro, um autointitulado especialista em generalidades e um triatleta de alta performance; e ela, administradora, alicerce familiar, corredora, triatleta e fã número um do marido: o casal Pedro Luiz Cerize e Juliana Seidler Cerize.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name. It is Sunday morning, the 8th of December, 2024, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start off in 1 Samuel 16:11:”Then he said, “There remains yet the youngest, and there he is, keeping the sheep.” What was his name? Oh yes, that was David, the Champion of Israel. When Samuel wanted to anoint the future king of Israel, Jesse called his oldest son in first, then the second one and then seven sons later, the prophet Samuel said, ”Do you have anymore sons?” “Oh yes, I have one. Right at the back looking after the sheep.” He said, ”Bring him.” Yes, he was the one!Then we go straight to the gospel of Luke 14:11:”For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.” I read a beautiful reading this morning by a man named Thomas Champness, and this is what it says: “He who is willing to take the lowest place will always find sitting room. It won't be crowded. There is no great crush for the worst places. There is nothing like the jostling at the back that there is at the front. So if we would be comfortable we shall do well to keep behind.” Isn't that true?No jostling for the back jobs, the jobs that are not seen or heard. No, all the jostling and the competition is in the front but I want to tell you, if you know Jesus Christ, you don't have to jostle because He will take care of you. Psalm 37:4:”Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.” Don't be in a rush young Lady. Don't be in a rush young man. Spend time with God and your time will come. I used to love watching the Comrades Marathon, that long race, from Pietermaritzburg to Durban and then the next year from Durban to Pietermaritzburg. Two standard marathons, back to back, with an extra few kilometres - and that little blonde-headed man by the name of Bruce Fordyce. I used to study him. You know, when that gun went off it was very, very busy in the front, jostling, pushing - where was he? No, he was hanging in the back. You see, he knew what he had to do. He worked with a watch. He didn't worry about the crowds and he won nine gold medals, eight of them consecutively, unheard of before.Today, don't be in a rush to always get to the front. Don't be in a rush to always make yourself known or seen. God will promote you like he did with David. Jesus bless you and goodbye.
