Irvette van Zyl: Olimpiese Marathon-Ma! / Irvette van Zyl: Olympic Marathon Mom!

Irvette van Zyl (37) is 'n werkende ma - maar haar "werk" is uitsonderlik: sy's immers 'n Olimpiese marathon-atleet! Die spele in Parys skop op Vrydag 26 Julie 2024 af, en dit sal die vierde keer wees wat Irvette aan die Olimpiese Spele deelneem. Sy praat met Daniëlla oor die uitdagings van ouerskap en atletiek: om te probeer 'long runs' doen terwyl jy hand bysit met huiswerk, en om vrede te maak met beserings wat buite jou beheer is. Irvette moes al keer op keer opstaan ná teleurstellings, en sy vertel waarom en hoe ma-wees haar die krag gegee het om dit te kan vermag. Irvette van Zyl (37) is a working mom - but her "job" is unusual: she is, after all, an Olympic marathon athlete! The games in Paris kick off on Friday, July 26, 2024, and it will be the fourth time Irvette participates in the Olympic Games. She talks with Daniëlla about the challenges of parenting and athletics: trying to do 'long runs' while helping with homework, and coming to terms with injuries that are beyond your control. Irvette has had to get back up time and again after disappointments, and she explains why being a mom has given her the strength to do this as well. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
