Ce qui vous semblait facile avant devient plus difficile, la motivation s'envole même pour une sortie courte.

La course à pied si plaisante et facile était devenue difficile et compliquée.J'ai compris après que je vivais ce qu'on appelle le blues post-marathon.

Gary & Shannon kick off a newly adjusted #WhatsHappening with the day’s biggest stories, including rising artillery activity involving Iran, continued courtroom fallout from Mark Zuckerberg’s social media trial, and debate over whether the Olympic “quadgod” actually choked—or faced the same kind of pressure moment athletes like Simone Biles have endured.Then it’s #SWAMPWATCH, covering the push to trademark Donald Trump’s name for a potential Palm Beach airport rename and escalating geopolitical tensions. The hour introduces new KFI news anchor Mark Rahner, whose sharp snark, dislike of sports analogies, fear of earthquakes, and insistence that he “has feelings” quickly make him a memorable addition to the show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From Ice Dances to Lice Fights | Good To See You | Ep 214Jen Bartels, Caitlin Brodnick, and Isaac Abrams jump from ice dancing vs. figure skating and Simone Biles' “twisties” to audition nightmares, lice horror stories, ski-lift scares, LA 2028 logistics, and a goofy “Itch Begone” sketch. Honest, funny, and surprisingly tender — perfect for comedy fans, performers, and sports lovers.We dig into what makes Olympic coverage so compelling — the athleticism, the pressure, and the human stories behind highlight reels — and translate that into performer life: auditions that feel like competitions, the terrifying “twisties” that can derail even the best athletes, and the tiny rituals performers use to hold themselves together before a big moment. Expect smart takes on athlete mental health, concrete acting anecdotes you'll relate to (or cringe at), and improv moments that land like a sketch show in the middle of a sports commentary.Beyond jokes and bits, the episode also gets practical and oddly useful: lice survival tips and the real costs of professional nit-picking services, how locals might rent out their LA homes for months of Olympics income, and what it actually takes to prepare for an elite event away from home. Whether you came for the winter-sport gossip, the audition war stories, or the ad-libbed commercial, there's a mix of laughter and insight—plus a few heartfelt moments about family, caregiving, and balancing career opportunities with real-life responsibilities.Like, subscribe, and comment: Which Olympic event would you try?

Today I am joined by Mattie Brown! Mattie is a New Orleans based, floral artist known for her delicate, coastal-inspired designs rooted in her childhood summers in Cape Cod and New England. She studied Interior Design at LSU and worked professionally in the design industry before her painting hobby grew into a thriving business. What began with canvas commissions for family and friends and painted champagne bottles eventually led her to transition into full-time art, a path she's now been on for three and a half years.Today her work ranges from hand-painted perfume bottles to live wedding paintings, and she has created custom pieces for Simone Biles and Michael Bublé, along with collaborations with brands like Batiste and events like The Masters. She is currently expanding back into canvas work, carrying forward the soft, nostalgic, floral aesthetic she's become known for.In this episode, Mattie and I chat about how she made her art business her full-time job, how she chooses what to focus on next, her journey from painting champagne bottles to perfume bottles, what is next for her, and so much more!Mattie's WebsiteMattie's InstagramMission Housing Ministries

Gymnast and two-time Olympic medalist Jordan Chiles reflects on the moments that tested her most — including the Tokyo Games, where a fall felt like failure before becoming something bigger, when she stepped to compete for Simone Biles at the last minute. Joined by her mother, Gina, Jordan shares how belief, repair, and self-talk helped her separate who she is from what she does.A powerful conversation about identity beyond performance, stepping up when it matters most, and the parents who hold belief when their kids can't see it themselves.This is episode 3/4 of Good Inside Presents: The Playbook, a limited-edition series created in partnership with Nike.Get the Good Inside App by Dr. Becky: https://bit.ly/4fSxbzkYour Good Inside membership might be eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement! To learn more about how to get your membership reimbursed, check out the link here: https://www.goodinside.com/fsa-hsa-eligibility/Follow Dr. Becky on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drbeckyatgoodinsideSign up for our weekly email, Good Insider: https://www.goodinside.com/newsletterFor a full transcript of the episode, go to goodinside.com/podcast.Thank you to our partners for making this episode of Good Inside possible! -Care.com: Use the code GOOD35 to save 35% on a Care.com Premium Membership.*Once Upon a Farm: Use the code GOODINSIDE for 40% off your first subscription.SmartyPants: Shop on Amazon, or at Target or Walmart today.*Offer applies to initial term of Care.com membership subscriptions.

Simone Biles ist die erfolgreichste Turnerin der Geschichte – und eine der einflussreichsten Sportlerinnen unserer Zeit. Mit ihrer Dominanz im Kunstturnen, ihrer technischen Innovationskraft und ihrer öffentlichen Haltung hat sie den Sport nachhaltig verändert. Ihre Geschichte ist bis heute relevant, weil sie zeigt, wie Leistung, mentale Gesundheit und Selbstbestimmung zusammengehören. Geboren 1997 in Ohio und früh mit familiären Brüchen konfrontiert, fand Simone Biles über das Turnen Stabilität, Ausdruck und Macht. Früh wurde deutlich, dass sie nicht nur außergewöhnliche körperliche Fähigkeiten besitzt, sondern den Sport auf ein neues technisches Niveau hebt – mehrere Elemente tragen heute ihren Namen. Doch diese Folge beleuchtet nicht nur Rekorde und Medaillen, sondern auch Brüche: den Umgang mit strukturellem Rassismus im Spitzensport, den Missbrauchsskandal um Larry Nassar und Simones Entscheidung, bei den Olympischen Spielen 2021 eigene Grenzen zu schützen. Ihr Satz „Meine körperliche und mentale Gesundheit steht über allen Medaillen“ markiert einen Wendepunkt – nicht nur für sie, sondern für den Leistungssport insgesamt. In dieser Folge sprechen wir über sportliche Macht, mentale Stärke und darüber, warum Rückzug kein Scheitern ist. Und darüber, weshalb Simone Biles nicht nur als Ausnahmeathletin, sondern als gestaltende Figur des modernen Sports verstanden werden muss. Diese Episode steht im Zusammenhang mit weiteren Folgen über strukturelle Ungleichheit im Sport, u. a. zu Michaela Mabinty DePrince (#278) und Serena Williams (#195). ––––– SERVICE & TRANSPARENZ ––––– Weitere Infos & Kontakt: https://linktr.ee/starkefrauen https://www.podcaststarkefrauen.de/ Team: Hosts & Redaktion: Kim Seidler & Cathrin Jacob Recherche & Script: Daniel Jacob Schnitt: Kim Seidler Quellen & weiterführende Links: https://www.essence.com/celebrity/13-black-women-who-changed-face-gymnastics/#92781 https://wghn.com/2024/07/25/who-has-the-most-olympic-medals-countries-athletes-with-the-most-wins/ https://www.womenshealthmag.com/life/a61634800/simone-biles-biological-mother-father/ https://www.fembio.org/biographie.php/frau/biographie/simone-biles https://www.thelist.com/1637603/who-are-simone-biles-five-siblings/ https://atlantablackstar.com/2024/09/08/who-are-simone-biles-brothers-sisters-siblings/ https://www.imdb.com/de/title/tt7978660/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46WxIwwILZo https://www.britannica.com/biography/Simone-Biles https://time.com/4428013/simone-biles-gymnastics-usa/ https://www.essentiallysports.com/olympics-gymnastics-news-i-was-really-useless-simone-biles-s-ex-coach-makes-saddening-confession-about-career-long-before-mentoring-the-gymnastics-goat/ https://www.turnerschaft-egg.at/weibliche-turnerinnen.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simone_Biles#Early_gymnastics_career https://www.olympics.com/de/athleten/simone-biles https://www.biography.com/athletes/simone-biles https://fulltwist.net/interview-simon-biles-sports-psychologist-robert-b-andrews/ https://www.elle.com/culture/celebrities/a61782010/who-is-adria-biles-simone-biles-younger-sister/ https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2018/jan/15/simone-biles-larry-nassar-sexual-abuse-allegations-usa-gymnastics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Nassar#FBI_failure_to_investigate_and_FBI_false_statements https://people.com/simone-biles-suffered-twisties-years-before-tokyo-olympics-11719834 https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/olympics/simone-biles-aunt-death-family-b1896242.html https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/2023/04/22/simone-biles-marries-jonathan-owens-houston-texans-safety/11557648002/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simone_Biles#Awards_and_recognition https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laureus_World_Sports_Award_for_Sportswoman_of_the_Year Photo Credit: By Ocoudis - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=149475257

Watching a ski jumper fly through the air might get you wondering, “How do they do that?” The answer is – physics!That's why this episode, we have two physicists – Amy Pope, a physicist from Clemson University and host Regina G. Barber – break down the science at play across some of the sports at the 2026 Winter Olympics. Because what's a sport without a little friction, lift and conservation of energy? They also get into the new sport this year, ski mountaineering - or “skimo” as many call it - and the recent scandal involving the men's ski jump suits. Interested in more science behind Olympic sports? Check out our episodes on how extreme G-forces affect Olympic bobsledders, the physics of figure skating and the science behind Simone Biles' Olympic gold. Also, we'd love to know what science questions have you stumped.

Zdravo. Začnemo v bunkerju, dobesedno in metaforično, se pogovarjamo o korporacijah, ki prodajajo strah pred vojno in o prihodnosti, ki ni več tako daleč, kot se morda zdi. Razdelamo tudi razliko med hvaležnostjo in srečo, izumimo priprošnjavanje in ugotovimo, da dnevnik hvaležnosti deluje tudi po apokalipsi. Ko se prebijemo k 3. poglavju, se tokrat posvetimo nosačem, ki nosijo kupe Dickensovih knjig in dvema preveč poštirkanima študentoma. Avtor pravi, da sta latvijska, mi pa vemo, da sta nemška. Nadaljujemo z geografijo, geni, ponosom, stereotipi in končamo pri šotorih in ljubezni, ki je tudi tokrat odgovor na vse.

Katie sits down with Jamie Anderson in New York City at the Team USA 100 Days Out Media Summit for a wide-ranging conversation ahead of the Winter Olympics. Jamie reflects on her journey as the most decorated snowboarder in Olympic history, what inspired her comeback after becoming a mom of two, and how watching the Paris Olympics and Simone Biles reignited something she thought might be done. She opens up about balancing motherhood and elite competition, traveling internationally with young kids, redefining identity after years at the top, and following what lights her heart on fire rather than chasing expectations. Calm, honest, and deeply reflective, this episode offers a different perspective on longevity, purpose, and doing sport on your own terms.-----Subscribe to the show on your favorite podcast platform, and follow us on social media (https://linktr.ee/unfilteredwaters) for clips, bonus content, and updates throughout the week.-----FOLLOW KATIE ON:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kthoff7/-----FOLLOW MISSY ON:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/missyfranklin88/-----SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSIM8health.com/discount/unfiltered for 10% offdreamrecovery.io use code UNFILTEREDTHIRTY for 30% off-----#UnfilteredWaters #SportsPodcast #JamieAnderson

A homeless man was begging strangers for money... When one young woman recognizes him as someone she used to watch on TV as a kid. Turns out he's former child star Tyler Chase, who starred on a hit Nickelodeon show. And how would you feel if you heard your child was put in a time out box at school. Well, a number of parents are outraged... After photos of a wooden box made for misbehaving students went viral. Plus, a man who had returned home from a cruise was going through vacation videos when he saw a familiar face. It wasn't a member of his family. It was Anna Kepner... The high school student who was found dead in her state room. And Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles is facing a bit of a backlash... All over her new puppy. The gymnast posted a photo with her NFL star husband holding their new Doberman. Animal lovers quickly noticed its ears had been cropped.

The Psychology of Leadership: Turn Stress into Peak Performance, with Sebastien Page,  a $500 billion fund manager How do top leaders and athletes use stress to boost performance instead of burning out?  Most high-achieving leaders believe they have to eliminate stress to perform their best—but sports psychology reveals the opposite is true.  The real problem isn't stress itself; it's operating too close to the edge without understanding your optimal performance zone, leading to burnout, lost creativity, and goal-induced blindness. In this episode of Impact with Ease, Blake talks with Sebastien Page, Chief Investment Officer at T. Rowe Price and author of The Psychology of Leadership, about the neuroscience and psychology of peak performance. Sebastien shares insights from 25 years as a leader in high-pressure finance, revealing how research from elite athletes like Simone Biles and Roger Federer can transform how you lead. You'll learn why zero stress isn't the goal, how to turn stress into energy, and the framework for sustainable success that helps you thrive at work while protecting what matters most in life.   Episode Highlights   Turning Stress Into Peak Performance [00:04] – Why zero stress isn't the goal for optimal performance [06:33] – The "second layer" of stress that leads to burnout [08:15] – The performance curve: when stress helps vs. harms your leadership   Sports Psychology Meets Executive Leadership [11:18] – Zone pacing: finding your optimal speed as a leader  [13:47] – Flow state and the balance between challenge and capability [15:20] – What Simone Biles teaches us about overtraining, rest, and coming back stronger   Deep Work, AI, and the Future of Leadership [23:35] – Deep work vs. shallow work for high-performing leaders [27:28] – The optimistic case for AI [30:00] – Why burned-out leaders can't innovate in the AI era [32:29] – Eric Hoffer's wisdom: "Learners inherit the earth"   Rethinking Success and the Psychology of Goals [34:15] – You're not burned out—you're addicted to the wrong goals [36:30] – The Harvard happiness study: what really predicts long-term fulfillment [38:48] – Achievement doesn't fix a misaligned life   Resilience, Failure, and Sustainable Success [48:23] – How small daily misalignments drain your energy [50:07] – Addressing small stressors [51:06] – Roger Federer and learning to lose well [55:31] – The one habit that predicts thriving   Powerful Quotes "What sports psychologists found is that optimal performance isn't at zero stress — it's at the point of healthy activation." – Sebastian Page "Achievement doesn't fix a misaligned life. How you feel day to day is what matters most." – Blake Schofield   Resources Mentioned  Connect with Sebastian Page: https://www.psychologyofleadership.net/ https://www.instagram.com/sebastienpagebook?igsh=MWk2cWV2c2JmNGhiNA%3D%3D https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3mpHw7hFLiqCSawsBkK11g   Drained at the end of the day & want more presence in your life?

David and Victoria Beckham graduated from “Mr. and Mrs.” to “Sir and Lady” after the soccer legend was knighted for his service in sport and charity. It was a decade-long process – and apparently included some expletive-filled emails when he got passed over years ago. The family gathered to celebrate, but we couldn't help but notice one noticeably absent Beckham. Meanwhile, Simone Biles shared a “get unready with me” TikTok we didn't know we needed full of cultural confessions. Simone, if you're reading this: it would be our honor to show you how to use a dishwasher.  In this week's episode, we also discuss:  Caroline's crash out over the Jets trade of Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams Hellen Obiri breaking the NYC Marathon course record – and her parents adorable reaction Clayton Kershaw's dad bod on full display, plus whether Shohei Ohtani is secretly fluent in English  What we want out of the next Cardi B and Robert Kraft sighting Joe Burrow's Halloween costume that had us asking…why so serious?  Send Its:  Cardi B and Kraft are suite-side besties: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQkokwUgEBU/?igsh=MThyaHZyY3F6bmNzbA==  Simone Biles' “get unready with me” confessions: https://www.tiktok.com/@simonebilesowens/video/7566672113323560222?lang=en  Chappell Roan at the National Horse Show: https://www.instagram.com/p/DQf0kTcDv_t/  Miley Stewart isn't Hannah Montana…Cam Dicker is: https://www.tiktok.com/@chargers/video/7567119748417195295?lang=en  Ms. Terry (aka Nick Saban's wife)  is all of us: https://www.instagram.com/p/DQnRrDjDrxA/  Blake's IG: @blaaakkkke Caroline's IG: @cghendy theSkimm's IG: @theskimm Want more sports?
