What does it truly mean to win? In this episode, we dive into the extraordinary story of Spanish long-distance runner Ivan Fernández Anaya, who had a rare chance to seize victory but chose honor over personal gain. In a 2012 race, Kenyan Olympian Abel Mutai mistakenly stopped short of the finish line—giving Fernández the perfect opportunity to pass him. Instead, he made a split-second decision that sparked a global debate: Was he a fool or a hero? We explore the psychology of competition, the true definition of success, and why moments like these matter more than medals. Tune in for an inspiring take on integrity, sportsmanship, and what it means to be a true champion.
