In 3mins, Sifan Hassan from London Marathon will teach you the greatest lesson for life & entrepreneurship. Goosebumps guaranteed!

Sifan ran her debut marathon while training through Ramadan and fasting and was pitted against the best athletes in the world.

Day before the race she said " I'm scared & feel stupid to show up for a marathon"

This is the story of her remarkable win this past Sunday.

-Within one hour of the race, she fell off the pace from the lead pack
-She was struggling with pain and stopped twice to stretch her hips.
-For elite runners, when they stop in a marathon their chances of winning is almost zero.

At this time the commentators said "She needs to stop and somebody needs to give her advice to step off and stop trying to run on. She may not know what to do in a marathon".

-But Sifan showed grit & resilience to stay on the course limping while her competitors raced ahead of her.
-At one point, she was nearly hit by the lead motorbike while trying to get to her water bottle.
-Later she offered water to her rivals.
-With every kilometre she closed the gap with the leaders and soon was with the pack.
-And 400meters away from the finish line she surged leaving her competition almost impossible to catch her.

Sifan won the race with a finish time of 2hr 18min 34 sec

After the finish she said “I learned to be patient and just to run my own race. Just keep going as much as possible and maybe i'll surprise myself.”

What makes Hassan’s story even more special is that she was born in Ethiopia but moved to the Netherlands aged 15 as a refugee where she moved into a shelter for asylum seekers.

Becoming a strong is not an event. It's a process.
Discipline is remembering what you want.

@hollykilroy Thanks for sharing! I feel the same and hopefully by sharing your story you will influence someone to think again. At the end of the day we are all just people, some luckier by birth and circumstance than others.

On 16th March, 1968 Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson Jnr was flying helicopter recon for an attack on an alleged Viet Cong-controlled village in Vietnam.

As the attack developed, Thompson realised he was witnessing something something else:

A massacre.

He decided to act. /1 🧵

After my daddy had a heart attack, he couldn’t work for a while. Bills piled up. One day, I walked into my parents’ bedroom. My mother’s face was red and puffy. A dress was laid out over the bedspread—the dress that only came out for weddings, graduations, and funerals:

This is my grandfather Solomon, murdered in the Holocaust. We do not forget. Far from it, my son now bears his name, that is one way we deny evil its aims #HMD2022

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the victims and survivors of one of the darkest periods in our history. But it’s not enough to remember — we also need to have the courage to speak out against acts of bigotry and hatred whenever we see them.

Posted in a mums group of 200+ mums & it appears that this appalling customer service is common place! To all those that have been treated badly do share your stories! I’ll be writing to media tomorrow because I’m already aware of so many ! Merry Christmas indeed @DublinZoo

[Regina O Keeffe @reokeeffe1]

@DublinZoo arrived at 4pm today only to realise that my ticket was for last night. 38 wks pregnant with our 5 yr old and 2.5 yr old all excited. After speaking to manager & staff absolutely no flexibility offered even to let us in for 30mins…The lamest of excuses … #wildlights

[Regina O Keeffe @reokeeffe1]

Given the public support received by the zoo last year it’s shocking that there was no flexibility at this family focused event to accommodate a few additional. It is more than obvious with the current environment that not everyone with a ticket would be able to go tonight.
