I believe that long before running and hiking became my main forms of movement\u2014and consequently, sports\u2014cycling had already become part of my life. When I was about five years old, I was already balancing on a bike on the streets of the neighborhood where I grew up.<\/p>\n

Throughout my life, I\u2019ve always had a bicycle by my side, whether for fun, commuting, or training. But it was in 2017 that everything changed. At that time, I was already completely immersed in the world of running, long distances, and endurance\u2026<\/p>\n

I remember the impact of the two videos in which Anton Krupicka talks about his journey in mountain sports and how, after a few injuries and being practically forced away from running, he found a new passion in bikepacking and gravel cycling.<\/p>\n

My Reunion with Cycling<\/h2>\n

In *Purpose* and *Long\u2019s Peak Triathlon*, I was able to see a greater connection between cycling and running, and it was that same year that I bought my new training partner. At the time, we were still far behind the global bike market, and it was practically impossible to buy a gravel bike in Brazil. So, I rediscovered cycling with a road bike \u2014 now more mature, with a strong background in another sport (running), and with a great desire to explore new horizons with this secondary sport.<\/p>\n
