<p>Numa competição de Jiu-Jitsu, três palavras estão sempre presentes: superação, amizade e homenagem.  Elas também se encaixam na história que vamos contar a seguir.</p>
<p>Competidor de triatlo, o casca-grossa Fabio Samuel Ávila, o &#8220;Lixo&#8221;, treinava forte para disputar seu primeiro Iron Man – a Copa do Mundo da modalidade – até que uma fatalidade passou pelo seu caminho em alta velocidade. Em julho último, Fabio sofreu um acidente de carro em São Paulo, e está em coma até hoje.</p>
<p>Com o acidente, o praticante de Jiu-Jitsu Ricardo Landim &#8220;Foquinha&#8221; (Ryan Gracie) e o amigo Caco Figueiredo resolveram levar a cabo uma homenagem e tanto: decidiram competir o Iron Man Brasil, em Floripa, no lugar do parceiro de todas as horas.</p>
<p>Foram oito meses de treinos, luta e sofrimento transformados em homenagens, dedicação e esperança. No fim de maio, data da prova, mais de 20 amigos foram para Florianópolis para torcer por eles, todos com camisetas lembrando o nome de Fabinho e a frase &#8220;Juntos somos fortes&#8221;.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/pt/2012/06/homenagem-superacao-e-jiu-jitsu-numa-prova-sobre-humana-de-iron-man/th_dsc01841/" rel="attachment wp-att-65338"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-65338" title="th_DSC01841" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/th_DSC01841.jpg" alt="" width="509" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>Foquinha aproveitou o momento para lembrar o falecido mestre Ryan Gracie, também com seu logo estampado na camisa da competição, bem no peito.</p>
<p>&#8220;Durante vários momentos da prova, o faixa-preta Foca correu ao lado do irmão Foquinha, dando mais força para ele acabar a prova&#8221;, conta outro amigo, Leandro. &#8220;Enquanto isso, o Lixo estava no hospital, em São Paulo, mas também vestido com o uniforme da equipe, torcendo de alguma forma. Após muita emoção, dor e cansaço, ambos terminaram a prova&#8221;.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/pt/2012/06/homenagem-superacao-e-jiu-jitsu-numa-prova-sobre-humana-de-iron-man/th_dsc01855/" rel="attachment wp-att-65340"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-65340" title="th_DSC01855" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/th_DSC01855.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>Ricardo Foquinha (tempo de prova: 12h44min) e Caco (14h58min) terminaram a prova e já sabiam o que fazer. &#8220;Agora chega de corrida e pedal, só Jiu-Jitsu de novo&#8221;, gritou Foquinha, ao cruzar a linha de chegada.</p>
<p>&#8220;Eu e Foquinha tivemos a maior e mais dura experiência pessoal de nossas vidas, que foi completar o Iron Man Brasil 2012. O corpo chega ao seu limite e só o apoio de pessoas especiais levam você a seguir adiante. Amamos você, Fabio&#8221;, comentou Caco, o mais novo faixa-branca da equipe Ryan Gracie, e desde já um dos mais guerreiros.</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/homenagem-superacao-e-jiu-jitsu-numa-prova-sobre-humana-de-iron-man/">Homenagem, superação e Jiu-Jitsu numa prova sobre-humana de Iron Man</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>

<p>There are three ever-present words at Jiu-Jitsu championships: overcoming, friendship and tribute. They also fit the bill for the story we&#8217;re about to tell.</p>
<p>A competitive triathlete, Fabio Samuel “Lixo” Ávila was training hard to enter his first Iron Man competition – the World Cup of the sport – until he had a high-speed run-in with fate. Last July, Fabio suffered a car accident in São Paulo and is in a coma to this day.</p>
<p>Because of the accident, Jiu-Jitsu practitioner Ricardo “Foquinha” Landim of Ryan Gracie academy and friend Caco Fiqueiredo decided to pay their unfortunate chum quite a tribute: they decided to enter the Iron Man Brazil competition in the city of Florianópolis in their partner&#8217;s place.</p>
<p>They transformed eight months of training, battling and suffering into an homage, dedication and hope. At the end of May, when the race took place, over 20 friends traveled to Florianópolis to cheer for them, all wearing T-shirts with Fabio&#8217;s name and the phrase “Together we&#8217;re strong” emblazoned on them.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/?attachment_id=65338" rel="attachment wp-att-65338"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-65338" title="th_DSC01841" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/th_DSC01841.jpg" alt="" width="509" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>Foquinha took the opportunity to remember the late master Ryan Gracie, whose face also featured on the competition T-shirt, right on the breast.</p>
<p>“Several times during the race Foca ran alongside his brother Foquinha, egging him on so he would finish,” recounted another friend of theirs, Leandro. “Meanwhile, Lixo was still in the hospital in São Paulo, but also wearing the team uniform, in some way cheering for them. After plenty of emotion, pain and fatigue, both completed the race.”</p>
<p><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/?attachment_id=65340" rel="attachment wp-att-65340"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-65340" title="th_DSC01855" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/th_DSC01855.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>Ricardo Foquinha (clocked time: 12 hours and 44 minutes) and Caco (14 hours and 58 minutes) finished the race and knew just what to do. “Now enough of running and pedaling, back to just Jiu-Jitsu,” shouted Foquinha as he crossed the finishing line.</p>
<p>“Foquinha and I had the biggest and toughest personal experience of our lives, which was to complete Iron Man Brazil 2012. The body reaches its limit, and only the support of special people can get you to forge ahead. We love you, Fabio,” said Caco, the latest white belt on team Ryan Gracie, also one of the team&#8217;s biggest warriors.</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/tribute-overcoming-hardship-and-jiu-jitsu-in-superhuman-iron-man-race/">Tribute, overcoming hardship and Jiu-Jitsu in superhuman Iron Man race</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>
