My hat off to Mark Zuckerberg.

The man has just won his first Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competition, a feat truly worthy of applause, in my opinion.

Mark Zuckerberg, who needs no introduction, certainly has nothing to prove to anyone. He already possesses what most people could only dream of – influence, wealth, success. But here's what is genuinely remarkable: he chose to put himself out there, to train extensively and to compete publicly in a sport that I imagine is both physically and mentally demanding. This competition could have easily taken a different turn. He might have been defeated and faced mockery on the very platforms he created. (Although, I tend to believe he wouldn't have entered the ring if he didn't think he had a fair chance.) Personally, I'm delighted that his hard work and dedication paid off.

This victory, in my view, likely signifies years of intense training, multiple sacrifices, and the investment of what I assume is limited free time for someone like Mark. It demonstrates that, irrespective of your social status, power, or wealth, striving for something, pushing our limits, makes life interesting, rewarding, and fun.

So Mark, well done! But hey, while we're discussing pushing limits, why not give ultra-running a try? I seem to recall you expressing an interest in picking up running a few years ago. I'd be honoured to coach you!

    I will be sharing here a bit of my journey and it's not all about running!
    My journey is about following passions, changing paths and a belief that there is a great potential out there and within me to explore.

    Cheers
