I was Piauí champion of Cycling - road, in 2015;

At the age of seventeen, I decided to do my first half Ironman in Porto Seguro, 1993. I was very happy to have completed the race in third place in my category and to be on the podium, which made my passion for long-distance sports grow even more. Regarding the event, I have been following Alexandre Ribeiro for many years and I always wanted to participate in a competition like this, but access was very difficult. Now with the test being held in Brazil, with my stable situation, good health and training for long distances up to date, I feel that I am able to participate and complete the test.

For 2 consecutive years I thought about sending this application, but only this year, after talking a lot with my coach and friends who have already run the race, I feel motivated to do that.
