João Magalhães, de 20 anos, treinava para a Maratona de São Paulo quando evento foi adiado. Atleta agora tenta quebrar recordes.
Respeitando a quarentena do covid-19, santista corre 43 km na sala de casa
Há mais de quinze dias em quarentena e sem poder treinar fora de casa respeitando as determinações de isolamento social, um jovem atleta de Santos, no litoral de São Paulo, decidiu correr sua própria maratona dentro de casa.
O atleta João Magalhães, de 20 anos, precisava treinar para a Maratona de São Paulo, quando entrou em isolamento social e não pôde mais sair de casa. “Usava a esteira que tenho aqui em casa, mas precisava de algo a mais, então montei um circuito dentro da sala”, diz.
“Vi muitas pessoas correndo entre os cômodos da casa, na varanda etc. Pensei em fazer uma coisa diferente”, conta. “Adaptei o espaço que eu tenho na minha casa”.
“Coloquei um sofá de um lado, duas poltronas do outro e uma mesa no centro. Fico fazendo o caminho de um ‘oito’ dentro dessa circunferência”, conta. “Sou um atleta profissional, não posso ficar parado. Preciso manter a forma e não perder o ritmo.”
Em um vídeo publicado nas redes sociais (veja acima), o atleta compartilha o desempenho com os seguidores, incentivando o respeito ao isolamento social. “Fiquem em casa, quando isso tudo acabar, vamos estar todos juntos na rua. Valeu” (sic).
Com o adiamento da Maratona de São Paulo devido ao risco de transmissão do novo coronavírus, João decidiu não desistir e ir além: quebrar recordes. Correndo cerca de 4h por dia dentro da sala de seu apartamento, ele conseguiu fazer 43 km, um quilômetro a mais que a Maratona de São Paulo, em 3h44. “O ritmo por quilômetro que fiz na maratona caseira foi de 5 minutos e 13 segundos por km”, conta.
O alvo de João Magalhães é um chinês que ainda não teve seu recorde reconhecido pelo Guinness Book. O chinês Pan Shacu virou notícia no mundo inteiro, em fevereiro, ao compartilhar nas redes sociais que correu 50 km dentro de casa em 4h48 em um espaço de oito metros. “[Eu e minha equipe] estamos tentando ver isso o mais rápido possível. Vou aproveitar o período de quarentena para quebrar esse recorde”, promete.
