Paris, 8am in a coffee bar: impromptu chat with Yohann Diniz, world record holder on 50km walk race. One thing about him blew my mind: Train station, 8am: I’m holding my first espresso like my life depended on it. And then I see a familiar face. Yohann! It is him. Yohann Diniz, world record holder on 50km race walk. Picture this: He walked 50km in 3 hours 32 minutes! 1/ Most of us cannot even walk 50km straight 2/ How the hell can he do 3h32mn WALKING when I couldn’t even do it RUNNING?! You know me… I tried to understand what the guy’s secret performance recipe was. What I discovered was: 1/ He was never meant to do Race Walk. He just tried it. Got to love it. Engaged fully in it. No plan B. 2/ He never did it for the light, the glory or the money. He did it for the passion of sport, the personal fulfillment and the memorable experiences he got to live thanks to this. 3/ He was alone during the race, but he did it to inspire millions of people, who like him, didn’t grow up in fancy places but still want to go beyond what society can project about what you can and cannot do or be. Yohann is a legend of his sport and one of those athletes people remember, years after they performed on the race track. But what struck me the most with Yohann, is his genuine authenticity. His simplicity. Like the most inspiring leaders I worked with during my corporate career, Yohann is one of those who leads primarily with humility. Another living example that you can be humble AND get to the top of your game. Yohann: thank you for the coffee, my friend. And I know we’ll be walking many more roads together (and I’ll try to keep the pace, I promise) — Michael MUNOZ Founder, The Corporate Athlete Group Leadership is a sport. Switch to athlete mode. NB: We often say business is a marathon. Well, it can also be a 50KM walk race. And if you want to apply some of Yohann’s secret recipes to your business, hit me up. That’s what we excel at.
