Luke Grant speaks with Leisa Caldwell about the impending aerial cull of feral horses in the Snowy Mountains region. On June 9 - the NSW Government will launch a controversial airborne shooting operation targeting the iconic Mount Kosciuszko brumbies. The veteran High Country representative and brumby advocate exposes the grim reality of the operation, major welfare concerns in the dense terrain, and shares her decades of experience fighting to protect Australia's alpine heritage.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week in the beach shack Hoppo is joined by Kiki Sjoberg. Kiki is a photographer who lives in the Kosciuszko region and has been taking extraordinary photos of brumbies in the wild for nearly a decade. As such, Kiki is very much against the government's wild brumby culling program. She joins Hoppo to try and raise awareness of the reality of the salutation from the perspective of someone on the ground.

Petersburg, 1796. Car Rosji osobiście przychodzi do celi polskiego generała. Nie po to, żeby go upokorzyć. Po to, żeby mu się pokłonić. W szóstej części serii o Tadeuszu Kościuszce opowiadam o człowieku, którego podziwiał nawet jego wróg. O drodze z wilgotnego lochu do Filadelfii, gdzie tłumy witały go salwami z dział, a Thomas Jefferson nazwał go „najczystszym synem wolności”.Będzie o godności, której nie można odebrać.O odwadze, która nie pyta o wynik.I o jednym dokumencie napisanym o czwartej nad ranem, który mógł zmienić historię Ameryki.Jeśli cenisz moją pracę nad tą serią: Wesprzyj podcast na patronite.pl/podcastlepiejteraz Postaw kawę na suppi.pl/lepiejterazŹRÓDŁA ODCINKA:Biografie podstawoweAlex Storozynski, The Peasant Prince: Thaddeus Kosciuszko and the Age of Revolution, St. Martin's Press, 2009Monica Gardner, Kościuszko: A Biography, 1920 (Wikisource)Tadeusz Korzon, Kościuszko: Biografia z dokumentów wysnuta, 1894/1896Tadeusz Korzon, Wewnętrzne dzieje Polski za Stanisława Augusta, t.

Agrippa Hull: Liberty Requires Participation. Discover how Agrippa Hull, a free Black soldier in the American Revolution, became a forgotten patriot who fought for the promise of America. Agrippa Hull proved that freedom is not simply a gift to be received, but a legacy that must be earned through active participation. This episode explores his extraordinary service in the Continental Army, his close bond with General Tadeusz Kościuszko, and the enduring lesson his life offers at a time when too many citizens have become cynical, passive, and disconnected from the responsibilities of self-government. What You'll Learn: • How Agrippa Hull helped serve the American cause during the Revolutionary War • Why his partnership with Tadeusz Kościuszko reveals the deeper meaning of liberty • What Kościuszko's forgotten will and Thomas Jefferson's failure say about the unfinished work of freedom • How Hull's life as a soldier and landowner embodied citizenship, character, and responsibility • Why every generation must actively defend liberty or risk losing it

In this Delirious WEST 2026 – Check-In 3 episode, I catch up with Kylie Bell to see how training is tracking as the race starts to feel very real. Kylie shares how she's juggling busy shift work, limited time, and long-term ultra prep – including running to work, doing a full shift, then running home again (yes, really). We chat about training on tired legs, getting night running dialled in, and why consistency beats perfection right now. We also talk through: • Strength work coming back into focus • Testing packs, poles, shoes, and backup gear (including zip ties and hair ties!) • Nutrition learnings from Kosciuszko and keeping things simple • Travelling to Japan mid-build and why hiking + moving still counts • Heat worries, weather roulette, and hoping April behaves itself • Crew planning, laminated cheat sheets, and why support crews deserve medals • The fine line between experience and complacency   Kylie brings her trademark calm confidence – not stressed, not panicking, just quietly getting the work done. A great listen if you're balancing life, work, and big endurance goals… or if you've ever thought, “Am I doing enough?”   Delirious WEST event Website – https://deliriouswest200miler.com.au/ Event Facebook Page – https://www.facebook.com/groups/1428304207182387  

In this second check-in with Delirious WEST 2026 athlete Craig Jeffrey, we dive straight into one of Australia's toughest mountain races — the Kosciuszko 100 miler — and unpack what it really takes to keep moving forward when conditions (and your body) aren't playing nice    Craig shares a raw, honest race debrief covering brutal alpine winds, unexpected snow crossings, stomach battles, sore knees, smashed toenails… and still finding moments of flow late in the race.   This is a conversation about experience, self-trust, and learning to race yourself — not the clock, not the field.   Get ready for: •

In this first check-in for Delirious W.E.S.T. 2026, I catch up with Craig Jeffrey — who's clocking a casual 160 km a week as he gears up for the Kosciuszko 100 Miler

With the 2025 Coast to Kosci ultramarathon just around the corner, I'm re-releasing one of my most meaningful conversations — recorded shortly after I won the 2022 Coast to Kosci 240km ultramarathon. In this interview with the amazing Bex Vandenburg, I share what was really going through my mind during the race — the mental tools, emotional shifts, and lessons that helped me push through fatigue, doubt, and pain to reach the finish line first. Whether you're lining up for this year's race, crewing a runner, or simply fascinated by what it takes to perform at your best in extreme conditions, this episode will give you: Practical mindset strategies for the toughest parts of the course Insights into managing fatigue and staying composed under pressure The importance of self-talk, presence, and purpose in long ultras How to reconnect with your “why” when things get hard I'm re-sharing this now to help this year's runners and crews prepare mentally for the journey ahead — and to remind everyone that Coast to Kosci isn't just a race… it's a test of character, heart, and belief. Tune in before race week, take what resonates, and may it serve you out there on the road from the coast to the summit of Kosciuszko.

When we think of the American Revolution, names like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin often come to mind. But one of its most influential figures came from halfway across the world — a Polish-born engineer and soldier named Thaddeus Kosciuszko.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

David McColm's handling of media commitments after the 2024 Kosciuszko won him many friends. It was well documented that his talented horse Far Too Easy had endured several setbacks over the previous couple of years and public interest was high. All David wanted to do in post race interviews was deflect the credit to others. The enormity of the moment triggered unbridled emotion in the former apprentice jockey who's now approaching forty years as a professional horse trainer. I've been looking forward to having David McColm on the podcast, and we've finally pinned him down for a chat. He says stable star Far Too Easy will return to the stable next month after the longest break of his career. David looks back on two uncharacteristically disappointing runs during the Brisbane carnival. The trainer takes us back to the 2020 Gold Coast Yearling Sale and the input of his teenage son Archie. David says the journey with Far Too Easy has been better for the presence of close friends in the ownership.  He says ongoing foot issues with Far Too Easy have tested his resolve. Dave looks back on the gelding's first two wins with the late Chris Caserta in the saddle. Only eight months later the young jockey lost his life in a freak accident. He reflects on the Magic Millions 3YO Guineas when Craig Williams rode the horse for the first time. David recalls Far Too Easy's impressive win in the Country Championship Qualifier at Grafton. He looks back on the horror of the 2022 flood which impacted Far Too Easy and ten other horses. Racing NSW assisted with the remainder of the gelding's Country Championship preparation. The trainer remembers the Championship Final on a very heavy track with J. Mac in the saddle.  David looks back on the first of Far Too Easy's three Kosciuszko attempts and the worrying skin rash that impeded his preparation. He reflects on the horse's first clash with arch rival Front Page. McColm talks about another Kosciuszko in 2023. This time he had to settle for third as Front Page prevailed again. The trainer says he carefully planned Far Too Easy's path to the next edition of the Kosciuszko. The horse raced only three times in between.  David was buoyed by Craig Williams' decision to fly to the Gold Coast for a barrier trial eleven days before the big race. He reviews the race and the emotional aftermath. The experienced horseman takes us back to his days as an apprentice jockey with Reg Powell at Werris Creek and pays tribute to a later tutor at Ipswich. He hasn't forgotten the thrill of his first win as a professional jockey. David acknowledges some special horses to help him along the way. He talks of son Archie's official transition to stable apprentice, and gives a shout out to younger brother Max. Mrs. Judy McColm plays a huge part in the operation of the stable, and receives the recognition she deserves. He makes special mention of his older family from a previous marriage. Dave looks back on a serious illness that halted his career for a couple of years. He pays tribute to a handful of jockeys who've rendered great service over the years. The trainer talks of his recent relocation to the Gold Coast. This is a laid back chat with a bush horseman who was able to guide Far Too Easy through some turbulent times to win a $2 million dollar race at Royal Randwick. 

Unusual Encounter on Alpine WaySetting and ConditionsIn the late afternoon of early September 2008, along Alpine Way at Mount Kosciuszko, light snow covered the terrain, creating a wintry atmosphere.The IncidentWhile driving on the road, a mob of kangaroos suddenly burst from the bush and crossed in front of the vehicle. They appeared to be fleeing from something deeper within the trees.The Mysterious CreaturePursuing the kangaroos was a robust creature, standing approximately five feet tall and moving on two legs. Its appearance was neither entirely animal nor completely human, but existed somewhere in between. The creature had no apparent neck and pale, distinctive eyes. Unusually, hair was only visible from its head down to its shoulders, while the rest of its body was covered in light creamy grey skin.For more comprehensive information, reports and history of the Yowie, visit our Website at www.yowiehunters.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/yowiehunters-witness-reports.

When the going gets tough, Benn gets moving!  We catch up with Benn following his impressive win at Coast 2 Kosci and chart his course to the astonishing MOAB 240 (miles that is!) in Utah later this year. Benn is one of the most professional and hard working athletes in the Aussie trail running scene. He is also, potentially, one of the most accident prone! Some serious near misses and inspiring stories there. We cover a massive spectrum of running chat. From race mindset and kicking down to parkrun speed after 235km's, to gold standard nipple protection and waking up covered in police tape.

Even though Maddy Reynolds was not a runner, COVID-19 spurred her and her homebound friends to start running around the limited area they were allowed to in their neighborhood in Sydney, Australia. On a lark, they decided to run their own marathon. Once racing resumed, Maddy ran an actual marathon. Then she was encouraged to try trail running and next racing. You can see where this is going. Maddy eventually took the risky leap, quitting her secure job as an investment banker to become a full-time runner. By 2023, successes started to accrue. After a runner-up finish in the Six Foot Track Marathon, one of Australia's most prestigious races, Maddy was chosen to represent her country at the World Mountain and Trail Championships in Austria. Her crowning result for the year was winning the UTMB Ultra-Trail Kosciuszko 50K. She followed up that ascendent year with a string of top-10 trail race finishes in 2024, including a win at the Trail de Lac d'Oô in the Pyrenees. Like any upward trajectory, there were bumps in the road. Maddy suffered a stress fracture in her calcaneus, or heel bone, following Kosciuszko. The most serious, though, was after she sustained a serious bacterial eye infection due to a contact lens mistake. Doctors considered removing her eye, but were able to save it, although her vision was severely fogged over. Amazingly, Maddy continued to progress despite very limited depth perception, certainly a huge impediment for a trail runner, leading to numerous falls, including a cracked kneecap. Just last week came a double-dose of positives. First, Maddy's doctors got her a new kind of contact lens that has restored her sight. A truly “Holy Crap, I can see” moment. Ironically, it's the same kind of lens that has also salvaged my vision. Using her new visual acuity, Maddy finished second in New Zealand's UTMB Tarawera Ultra-Trail 52K. Although the race buildup did not go without some crazy, maybe even hilarious, hiccups, as you'll hear. None of these incidents can deter Maddy, who explains the big chance she took on herself, and led her to move to France with her boyfriend to advance her career. She is a font of positivity, and feeds upon the community that is running. She has some huge days ahead of her, and we had a very fun and engaging chat, so I hope you'll enjoy this and follow her as she establishes herself as a force in the trail running world.Maddy ReynoldsInstagram @maddyreynolds98Bill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman Podcast

We catch up with Wagga based trainer Gary Colvin who added to his metropolitan record when Cambar scored a tradesmanlike win in the TAB Highway on Nov. 30th. Gary's hoping Cambar will emulate the deeds of stable favourite Another One who won a Championship Final  in 2022 after having finished second the year before. Gary begins our podcast by talking about Cambar's two early wins at Wagga when ridden by stable apprentice Holly Durnan. He looks back on his purchase of the little colt at the Inglis Premier Sale in Melbourne. He got a second opinion from Warwick Farm trainer Greg Hickman who'd trained the colt's sire Pierata. Gary says Cambar has been a thorough professional from the day he was broken in. The trainer retained a part ownership of the horse while the remaining shares were snapped up by old friends. He says one of the quartet is a first time participant. Gary looks back on childhood days growing up with his six siblings on the family farm at Tullibigeal. He says his father was never without a horse or two on the property. He pays tribute to uncles John and Noel Colvin, both very successful jockeys. Gary says he was 17 when he joined three of his siblings in Wagga. He pleased his parents greatly when he registered for an apprenticeship in joinery. He talks of his progress in the old world trade. He talks of his passion for Australian Rules Football, and reflects on his involvement with the Wagga Tigers and the Collingully side. He plays down reports that he was a very accomplished player. Gary remembers his short stint in a coaching role. He looks back on Fred Colvin's move to Wagga and a renewal of his trainer's licence. He assisted his father for eleven years while training a small team of his own. When Fred retired in 1997, he was ready to train in his own right. Gary hasn't forgotten the mare who provided the first win of his full time training career. He acknowledges the special horses to get him up and running as a commercial trainer with special mention of Baltra and Lock the Key. The accomplished trainer takes us through the circumstances leading up to his purchase of Another One at an Inglis Classic Sale. He's never forgotten the instant he first saw the chestnut colt.  Gary talks of Another One's pedigree and the 15 strong syndicate who got together to race the horse. The trainer recalls setting the talented horse for a maiden 2YO at Wagga. He and the owners were stunned when a Randwick trained youngster from the John O'Shea yard turned up for the same race. He takes us through Another One's progression to his first tilt at the Country Championship. Gary followed a similar path the following year and the gelding again made the final at Randwick. This time he prevailed in the highly prized event.  He pays tribute to Another One's regular rider Nick Heywood who wages a fearsome battle with weight to stay in the saddle. Gary talks of Another One's Kosciuszko failure and his most recent wins in the Riverina. The trainer speaks highly of Danny Beasley who rode the horse to victories in the Canberra National Sprint and the Wodonga Cup. Danny recently joined the Wagga training ranks and is situated right next door to the Colvin stables. Gary talks of wife Karen's picture framing business in Wagga, and his willingness to lend a hand in the early days of the operation. He says his assistance was not needed.  Gary talks of daughter Gabby who's currently a highly regarded member of the Melbourne Women's AFL side. Her dad's pretty chuffed. He makes mention of sons Brodie and Matthew. One prefers the thrill of trying to back a winner- the other enjoys being around the horses. Good to catch up with yet another talented member of the country training ranks.

Good to catch up with a young jockey who's forged a prominent spot among the powerful Sydney riding ranks in recent years. The Waterhouse/Bott duo supply regular rides to Adam Hyeronimus  in recognition of his unrelenting work ethic. He currently has 4 Gr 1 winners on his CV along with numerous stakes wins. We were able to pin Adam down last week for a lengthy chat about the early days of his apprenticeship and the road he's since travelled.  He begins by referencing the wonderful support he receives from Tulloch Lodge. Adam says he's no natural lightweight and needs to watch his diet at all times. It's well known that Adam descends from a family of jockeys on both sides of his pedigree. He pays tribute to those who've preceded him.  Adam makes special mention of his maternal grandfather the late Reg Paine, a former legend on western districts tracks. He also acknowledges the deeds of uncles Neil and Rodney Paine, both talented riders in their own right. He explains that two of his cousins are married to high profile jockeys. The popular jockey looks back on early days at Cowra when he gained expert riding tuition from a local trainer. He talks about a succession of trainers with whom he spent parts of his apprenticeship. Adam clearly recalls his first ever race ride at Bathurst in 2008. He looks back on his time with Grafton trainer John Shelton who supplied his first winning ride. Adam takes no credit for the win. With Shelton's support Hyeronimus decided to finish his apprenticeship in Sydney. He had a short time with Jason Coyle before transferring to Gai Waterhouse. He says it was a long time before Gai found him a job. Adam received an immense thrill when he was able to win the inaugural Kosciuszko for his old boss John Shelton. He talks affectionately of the veteran bush gelding Belflyer. He'd been having back problems before he was dislodged from a horse at Randwick on Everest day 2019. The harmless tumble exacerbated his problems to the extent that he was sidelined for 3 months. Adam recalls how close he went to opening his Gr 1 account on outsider Prince Fawaz in the Rosehill Guineas. He gave Castelvecchio a big fright. He says he didn't have to wait long to get the Gr 1 monkey off his back. Just one week later he led all the way to win the Vinery Stud Stakes for Waterhouse/Bott on Shout The Bar. Many people in racing address Adam by the nickname of “Hippo”. He explains how and when his well known sobriquet originated. The jockey looks back on the lowest point in his career- the prolonged investigation into his betting activities which would see him banned for two years and four months. He talks of the impact it had on his life and the time he spent in outside employment. Adam says his weight soared during the long layoff. He talks of his change in attitude after such a major disruption to his livelihood. Hyeronimus was chuffed to win his second Gr 1 on the gutsy filly Tropical Squall for his greatest supporters. The talented jockey was grateful to receive a top Gr 1 ride from the Godolphin organisation in the Spring Champion Stakes. He rode Tom Kitten perfectly to win the important three year old race.  Adam was thrilled to win another Gr 1 on the genuine filly Tropical Squall. He talks of his short but successful association with the imposing colt Storm Boy who's now in training with Aidan O'Brien at Ballydoyle. A Magic Millions win was a huge thrill for the jockey. Adam talks of his near miss on Lady Of Camelot in the Blue Diamond Stakes. He thought he was home. A good chat with a young horseman whose future looks assured in the fiercely competitive Sydney jockey's room.

Welcome back, dear listeners. Today we're going back to the only Revolution that matters, America's. And we're talking about a badass Polish dude who decided to throw in with our lot. Tadeusz Kosciuszko may have an awful, garbage name, but the man kicked some major ass. And he helped knock dumb English dicks into the dirt, so he's alright in our book. Then he went on to do even more badass shit across Europe, so there's something for people from very country. Except England. You get nothing. Enjoy!

With the Sydney jockey's room virtually a closed shop, other talented riders are obliged to carve themselves a niche in one of several strong NSW regional centres. With no shortage of race meetings, these jockeys are able to pursue a healthy livelihood, sneaking to town from time to time when an opportunity arises. One such jockey is Billy Owen who's services are in regular demand in the Southern Districts. Bill's first stint as a professional rider was halted by weight problems in 2013. He spent the next five years on the amateur circuit winning more than a hundred races. He was thrilled in 2018 when his weight stabilised, allowing him to return to the pro ranks. Bill talks about his current run of success. He speaks highly of My Last Hooray whose three recent wins have impressed the jockey. The gelding is the only horse in the stable of former multiple Gr 1 winning trainer Frank Cleary. The jockey talks of Asgarda, the mare he partnered in the Kosciuszko. Bill's location between Canberra and Queanbeyan enables him to ride trackwork at both venues. The 32 year old takes us back to his early days growing up on the family farm near Gundagai. He says he was in the saddle at age 3. He talks of his favourite equine activities and a brief stint at the rodeo. Bill says he loved every minute of his Rugby League involvement with the Gundagai Tigers. His “jockey's frame” came against him.  With the blessing of his parents, Billy gained an apprenticeship with Nick Olive. The jockey clearly recalls his first winning ride on the Olive trained Chirurgo Dame in 2010.  He talks of a long and happy association with the Canberra trainer. Bill was on the team during Nick's association with classy mare Single Gaze. He never rode Single Gaze in a race, but was her regular partner in trials and trackwork.  He says the stable staff were wildly excited when Single Gaze ran second in a Caulfield Cup and progressed to the Melbourne Cup of 2017. Billy talks of Voice Commander, the horse he rates as the best he's ridden in a race. He looks back on the decision to quit the professional ranks when his weight got out of control. Bill has fond memories of his five years on the picnic circuit and a win in the famous Bong Bong Cup. The jockey has never forgotten the morning he became aware that a return to the professional ranks was a possibility. Bill says he took a much more professional approach on the comeback trail. He's never forgotten Nick Olive's gesture in finding the right horse to re-launch his career. Towards the end of 2018 Billy was tickled pink when Sydney trainer John O'Shea sought his services for a horse called Dawn Raid. He fondly remembers his first Saturday metro win on Junglized for trainer Brad Widdup. Bill hasn't forgotten his first metropolitan double- a brace of wins at Warwick Farm for John O'Shea and Gerald Ryan.   He talks of the two jockeys he most admired as he was coming through the ranks. Bill pays tribute to partner Kia, daughter of prominent trainer Doug Gorrel. His regular riding weight of 57kgs is achievable only by adherence to a strict regime. Bill acknowledges the support of a handful of southern trainers. It's a laid back chat with a very popular southern districts jockey. 

Welcome to my new limited series on climbing the Seven Summits. Episode 1 is an introduction plus a brief update on the Autumn climbing activity in Nepal and Tibet. For the next eight weeks, I'll drop a new episode discussing one of the 7 Summits in detail. The Seven Summits, aka 7S, represent the highest point on each of the seven continents. However, as with most things in mountaineering, there is controversy. From a geological viewpoint, there are only six continents on Earth: Africa, Antarctica, Australia, Eurasia, South America, and North America. Europe is considered a peninsula of the Eurasia continental platform and is not an actual physical continent. However, from a political perspective, Europe is regarded as a continent; thus, Elbrus (18,513'/5642m), located on the border with Asia in southern Russia, represents Europe and not Mont Blanc (15,771'/4807m), which lies in the Alps on the border of France and Italy. The 7 Summits idea was hatched and first accomplished by American Dick Bass. He started with six summits in 1983: Aconcagua, Kilimanjaro, Elbrus, Denali, Vinson and Kosciuszko. Then, with guide David Breashears, he became the oldest person, 55 at the time, to summit Everest in 1985. Canadian Patrick Morrow became the first to summit all seven with Carstensz in addition to Kosciuszko in 1986. Italy mountaineering legend Reinhold Messner summited all the peaks without supplemental oxygen, a first, and completed the task in 1986. #7summmits Episodes will drop each week of: September 15: Introduction September 22: Mt. Kosciuszko, Australia - 7,310/2228m September 29: Mt. Blanc, France/Italy - 15,771'/4807m October 6: Vinson, Antarctica - 16,067/4897m October 13: Carstensz Pyramid (Puncak Jaya), New Guinea - 16,023/4884m October 20: Elbrus, Russia - 18,513/5642m October 27: Kilimanjaro, Africa - 19,340/5896m November 3: Denali, Alaska - 20,320/6194m November 10: Aconcagua, Argentina - 22,902/6960m November 17: Everest, Nepal/Tibet - 29,035/8850m --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/alan-arnette1/support

Join Heather & Andy Dorantes for a quick and fun conversation about living life as an adventure, rather than a goal to be achieved. Heather interviews Andy about her adventures climbing the 7 summits including Mount Everest, and her love of new experiences and the adventure that is possible every day. What if business and all of life could carry with it a sense of discovering the unknown and never trying to get anywhere, but rather enjoying the journey of where you're going and the future you're creating?

Rob Mason has been a Firefighter for 24 years at Nowra station and is an Ultra Marathon runner, he ran first 100 km ultramarathon in 2009 and although he couldn't walk for a week afterwards and swore he'd never run a step again, he found himself hooked on ultra-running. The following year, with the help and advice from mentors and friends in the ultra-running community, he completed the ‘Triple Crown' of Australian ultra-running; The Glasshouse Mountains 100 mile (161km) ultra, The Great North Walk 100 mile ultra and the 240km Coast to Kosciuszko ultra within a 4 month period. Fast forward to 2022 Rob went all-in on working on his mindset, including starting the ‘Mindset for Runners' podcast and working with a professional mindset coach. With a concerted plan and mental training, Rob went from thinking he was an average runner to knowing he was going to win the race – and he did, enjoy this inspiration chat with Rob.

Menos de cincuenta alpinistas habían logrado escalar «las siete cumbres», es decir, la cumbre más alta de cada uno de los siete continentes del mundo. Por eso es tan sobresaliente que el primero en lograr esta hazaña fuera el empresario norteamericano Dick Bass, que a los cincuenta y cinco años de vida batió récord también como el hombre de mayor edad que hasta entonces escalara el monte Everest. Llegó a la cumbre de esa montaña, la más alta del mundo, el 30 de abril de 1985. Las siete cumbres, en orden descendente, son la del monte Everest en Asia, de 8.848 metros; la del Aconcagua en Suramérica, de 6.960 metros; la del Denali en Norteamérica, de 6.194 metros; la del Kilimanjaro en África, de 5.895 metros; la del Elbruz en Europa, de 5.642 metros; la del Vinson Massif en la Antártida, de 4.897 metros; y la cumbre del monte Kosciuszko en Australia, de 2.228 metros de altura. Siempre satisface alcanzar cumbres en la vida. ¿Quién no desea alcanzar la suya? A pocos les satisface quedarse en el llano, en el valle, limitándose a contemplar cómo suben los demás mientras ellos se quedan siempre a ras de tierra, hacinados con los fracasados y tragando polvo. Querer escalar y llegar a una alta cima es noble y encomiable deseo. A fin de cuentas, el hombre, creado a la imagen de Dios, es un ser que camina derecho, con los ojos en lo más alto de la cabeza para poder mirar lejos y mirar a lo alto. Lo que nos separa a unos de otros son las cumbres que optamos por escalar. La primera cumbre que escogió Dick Bass fue la de su propio continente, la del Denali, y logró escalarla. Por último, decidió escalar la más alta, la del Everest, y la coronó también. Y consiguió todo eso sin haberse formado como alpinista, sino a base de un empeño constante y una determinación tan inconmovible como las montañas mismas. Hay quienes buscan la cumbre de la riqueza. Otros escogen la cumbre de la ciencia. Otros, con inclinaciones místicas, optan por la cumbre de la religión. Otros aspiran a las cumbres del arte, del deporte o de la política. Para cada uno, la cumbre que escoge tiene un atractivo sin igual. Pero ¿quiénes buscan la cumbre de la santidad? ¡Si hasta parece ridículo hacer esta pregunta en un mundo plagado de materialismo y vanidad! Sin embargo, y aunque no parezca posible, la santidad es la mayor cumbre de todas. Es la cima más excelente, la única que puede llevarnos a nuestra plena realización. De los que han buscado esta cumbre, muchos han fracasado en su empeño por haberse desviado del camino. Esa cumbre de la santidad es Cristo, la santidad personificada. Para llegar a ella, debemos seguir el camino sin desviarnos. Pero a fin de no desviarnos, es imprescindible que la escalemos con la mirada puesta en Cristo.

The Kosciuszko Bridge is one of New York City's most essential pieces of infrastructure, the hyphen in the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway that connects the two boroughs over Newtown Creek, the 3.5 mile creek which empties into the East River.The bridge is interestingly named for the Polish national hero Tadeusz Kościuszko who fought during the American Revolution, then attempted to bring a similar revolutionary spirit to his home country, leading to the doomed Kościuszko Uprising of 1794.Kościuszko, the man, is a revered historical figure. The bridge, however, has not always been loved. And many non-Polish people even struggle to pronounce its name, inventing a half-dozen acceptable variants.The original Kościuszko Bridge was not exactly beloved by drivers, vexed by its inadequate handling of traffic and its poor roadways. Its glorious replacement, installed in two phases in 2017 and 2019, lights up the night sky -- and the filmy waters below.In this episode, Greg tells the entire story -- of both the man and the bridge. But it's also a story of Newtown Creek, the heavily polluted body of water which runs beneath it. How did this once placid creek become so notoriously filthy? And how did the most prominent bridge over that waterway become associated with an 18th century hero?PLUS The return of Robert Moses!Visit the website for more information

Dan Meagher admits emotions are running high ahead of Lim's Kosciuszko's appearance at Hong Kong, given Singapore's racing sector is shutting down.

Nick is joined by RTE and Racing TV broadcaster Jane Mangan to discuss the latest news and events from around the racing world. They begin by talking to Cheveley Park Stud's Richard Thompson, who gives the lowdown on A Plus Tard, Allaho and more, whilst revealing that Ferny Hollow is set to miss the entire season. Later in the show, Nick talks to trainer Paddy Corkery, hopeful that stable star Master McShee can run bold race against Energumene at Cork this weekend, and to breeder Jayne McGivern of Dash Grange Stud, who bought top lot Concertista at Goffs yesterday. Nick and Jane pay heartfelt tribute to Kayf Tara, who died yesterday at 28, while JA McGrath runs the definitive rule over the HKIR races and Maddy Playle catches up with connections of Lim's Kosciuszko, Dan Meagher and Danny Beasley.
