  • Between Bits and Atoms: Food, Physical Industries, and the Digital Age’s Physical Wall

    The transition from the material world to the digital one is among the defining transformations of the 21st century. It is often portrayed as a shift from a heavy, slow, and constrained reality to a light, fast, and nearly infinite one. Yet this image is partial and misleading. In practice, the digital does not replace…

  • Sorry for the noise… we’re building something that matters

    I’m the kind of leader who rocks the boat.I’ll admit it, I’m not in the business of keeping things “nice and quiet.”Whenever I sense an organization getting too comfortable, my instinct is to shake things up. Not because I enjoy chaos, but because I’ve learned that in today’s world, comfort is often the first step…

  • Ultra-marathons and the struggle for democracy

    As many of you may know there if a fierce debate going on over the past several months in the Israeli society. The government, established a few months ago, has set on a judiciary change that many perceive as a step toward anon-liberal democracy at best, or even the beginning of a non-democratic regime. Some…

  • Diversity and inclusion in the mix of running, work and democracy

    Did you notice the wonder that happens in races? People standing at the start line may come from such a diverse background in their daily life, in international events they may come from different culture, languages and habits. The magic starts along the start line, where one cannot tell who is who. The wonder is…

  • Running sustainability – do we solve the root cause?

    Over my running years I developed great passion for sustainability. I guess it has always been there… the love of nature in its purity and beauty, sometimes raw and brutal, but always gorgeous. It is my temple, my place of peace, and it must be preserved for future generations. Figuring this out changed also the…

  • Antarctica – What a race!

    In a little while the ship will enter the Beagle Channel and make its way towards Ushuaia. I have no idea where to start and how to even describe the last twelve days. There will be an extensive post about this later. Antarctica and the Drake Passage, the beauty, the power, the life, the nature,…

  • Antarctica – am l ready?

    I believe this is a question that runs in any competitor’s mind as they approach a target event. In my case it is The Last Desert Antarctica race by Racing The Planet. In a few days I will board the ship to sale across Drake Passage towards this multistage race. It would be my 3rd…

  • Stress… analyzing work, training, & competition

    After my previous post “Crisis management, between real life and running”, a friend asked me if can find a difference in my mental and physical state when I compare between endurance sport events and crisis management at work. The answer was obvious to me, but I choose to look at the data and examine this…

  • Crisis management, between real life and running

    (*Hebrew below) Between 2020 to 2022, I was involved in several crises. In all of them I played a significant role, leading the crisis management & coordination, leading disaster recovery process, and supporting crisis management and recovery effort. As I was writing my learnings from these events, it occurred to me that there are many…
