The Bermuda Sports Journal was established in part because many of the sporting organizations have not kept records of the achievements of their athletes whether it be in photographs, documented history, or statistics. As people grow older, memories fade and is forgotten, therefore, unrecorded information frequently become fables. The goal of the Bermuda Sports Journal is to interview people and document their stories to ensure preservation of all their stories. We aim to be as accurate as possible, whilst relying on people’s honesty and their re-collection of events, including correct dates and times, therefore, some information may be inaccurate.

Bermuda Sports Journal | 20226

Bermuda’s under-20 athletes are genuinely role models, athletically and academically. They are also nurturing leaders and did all that was possible to ensure the under-17s also felt included and encouraged. That was so important when this was the first Carifta experience for every member of the under-17 team. The leadership of the under-20s was needed immediately. The under-17s were in awe, if not star-struck, as they made their way past the statues of Merlene Ottey, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Don Quarry and the legendary Usain Bolt. With eyes wide, mouths dry and their hearts beating loudly in their chests, the under-17s were the first to take the track in the National Stadium in Kingston.

Zenji Washington, the second competitor for Bermuda, was distraught when she was disqualified from competing in the 100 because she was charged with a false start. Regrettably, Zenji jumped out of the blocks when a security officer slammed shut a metal gate in the stadium, near the starting line. We sought redress from the starter’s team; however, they said that they did not hear the gate slam — a sound that could be heard throughout the stadium!

During a post-mortem, Bermuda’s Carifta staff of head coach Devon Bean, assistant coach Jerome Richards, assistant coach Terry-Lynn Paynter and team manager Janine Scott reflected on the leadership of team captain Sancho Smith, Za’Kayza Parsons and the rest of the under-20 team.

On April 28, 2022, Dr. Freddie Evans, PhD President of the Bermuda National Athletics Association wrote an article in the daily paper (The Royal Gazette) entitled “Why can’t we compete with Jamaica? Investment”. The Bermuda Sports Journal asked his permission to publish it again, it’s that good.

There was also an intimidation factor, as most of the team had watched the ISSA Grace Kennedy Boys and Girls Championships — better known as “Champs“— shown live on a regional sports television channel. This also took place at the National Stadium, one week before Carifta in front of 20,000 spectators.

Dr. Freddie Evans, President of the Bermuda National Athletics Association

Saturday morning’s session started rough for Team Bermuda: J’Naz Richards lined up first for the 100 metres. J’Naz was the smallest person on the track, running into a 2mps headwind, and although she did run well with 13.26sec, she felt that she could have competed better.

Bermuda Sports Journal | 20228

Despite Bermuda having a lot to celebrate after the 49th Carifta Games in Kingston, Jamaica, one of the first questions I was asked upon my return was, “Why can’t we compete with Jamaica?”

“WHY CAN’T WE COMPETE WITH JAMAICA?”

After the Covid cancellation of Carifta for the past two years, the Bermuda National Athletics Association and Bermuda athletes — like all athletes in the region — had to deal with the absence of competition as the new normal. In resurrecting the programme, the BNAA was able to select a small, young team with a few “veteran” athletes in the under-20 age group to form the Bermuda 2022 Carifta team.

Denver Tucker and Miles Outerbridge returned to the track for the 200, competing in heats one and three, with times of 23.16 and 23.97 respectively.

Jauza James, Bermuda’s first multi-event competitor at Carifta in more than 30 years, was in eight events over two days. Jauza’s efforts were remarkable because not only was this his first Carifta but it was also the first time that he competed in an octathlon. He had personal bests in the 400, 1,500, high jump, shot, 100 and javelin. In his exuberance, Jauza fouled three times in the long jump and scored no points. If he had managed a legal jump of his average practice distance, Jauza could have been in medal contention. All in all, a remarkable performance by this dynamic young athlete.

The youngest member of the Bermuda team, and one of the youngest competitors at the Games, Jaeda Grant competed in the 800. She was another beneficiary of the under-20 support and made the final, placing sixth in 2:20.50. Shayla Cann competed in her first Carifta Games, in the under-20 division, and raced to a fifth-place finish in 2:21.58.

Both girls sought solace from their parents, who were in attendance, and their coaches, but I was told by the coaches that it was Za’Kayza, Caitlyn Bobb, Ketura Bulford-Trott, and Sanaa Rae Morris who helped to settle the under-17s and helped them to prepare to do their best in their next events — which they both did as members of the 4 x 100 relay team.

The under-20s were next on the track, with Za’Kayza Parsons running a 12.26 and Ketura Bulford-Trott running 12.28, times that were expected because both of these collegiate athletes had limited opportunities to compete this year owing to injury and weather complications. They should continue to progress throughout the rest of the season.

In the under-20 men’s 800 metres, Nirobi Smith-Mills, the 2019 gold medal-winner in the under-17 division, won his heat in 1:55.11. Team-mate Sancho Smith produced a personal best of 1:56.22 to accompany Nirobi into what was an incredibly fast final for this age level.

S’Nya Cumbermatch took to the track in the under-17 400, placing sixth in 1min 2.41sec. Caitlyn Bobb returned for the under-20 400 and battled her way on to the podium for Bermuda’s first medal of the Games in 53.95.

Denver Tucker made his debut in the under-17 men’s division and reached the 100 metres finals. Denver was seventh in 11.06. Miles Outerbridge, another young newbie making his Carifta debut, ran 11.62.

Nirobi got boxed in by his Jamaican rivals but fought around it to get fourth place in 1:52.20, while Sancho improved his PB to 1:55.36 in finishing sixth.

92022 | Bermuda Sports Journal

The 1,500 metres featured under-17 first-timer Fenella Wightman, who ran an excitingly gutsy performance in delivering a personal best of 4:59.98, while team-mate Jaeda Grant was sixth in 4:57.14. Simeon Hayward, another Carifta debutant, ran a personal best of 4:20 in the under-17 men’s race. Za’Kayza Parsons set a season’s best distance in the long jump with a leap of 5.43 metres that earned her sixth place, while Kesay Bell had a personal best of 10.03 in the shot putt.

Madisyn Bobb and Elise Dickinson made their debuts in the 200, running into a strong headwind, and clocked 26.53 and 26.56 respectively. Both rebounded from their average performance as members of the 4 x 400 relay. Caitlyn Bobb the 2021 Bermuda Junior Athlete of the Year, also ran in the 200 in the under-20 division and was fifth with 24.79 and, like collegiate team-mates Ketura and Za’Kayza, should continue to improve as her season progresses.

Relays were a source of heartbreak and redemption for Bermuda’s women. The 4 x 100 relay teams were agonizingly close to earning medals. In the under-17 division, Madisyn Bobb, Elise Dickinson, J’Naz Richards, and Zenji Washington raced valiantly and took fourth in 49.50. The under-20 team of Caitlyn Bobb, Ketura Bulford-Trott, Sanaa Rae Morris and Za’Kayza Parsons also placed fourth while setting a national junior record in 46.13 — they missed the podium by one hundredth of a second!

Investors put financial plans and property in place and nurture their investments with patience to achieve profits or, in this case, success. Conversely, our youth, culture, entertainment, and sports investment are analogous to playing the lottery — lottery players drop a couple of dollars and hope for a win. Lottery playing is not a strategy for long-term success. Bermuda has celebrated world-class success in arenas, despite the minimal investment — sort of like hitting the lottery. But, like lottery winners, that pathway to world-class success is not sustainable.

I am extremely proud of our Carifta athletes’ success. I am also proud of all of the national sports governing bodies that continue to help Bermudian athletes compete regionally and internationally. Bermuda continues to punch way above its weight class. We compete intensely with everyone but playing the lottery will continue to lead to moderate and episodic success.

It is obvious that Bermuda athletes not only competed with the Jamaicans, but they also competed outstandingly well.

Bermuda Sports Journal | 202210

Redemption came in the 4 x 400 relays. The under-20 women’s team of Sanaa Rae Morris, Ketura BulfordTrott, Shayla Cann and Caitlyn Bobb powered their way on to the podium with a third-place finish and another national junior record in 3:48.69. Not to be outdone, the under-17s took to the track with a medal clearly on their collective agendas. Madisyn Bobb led off holding her own with the strong field, keeping the team in medal contention. She handed off to S’Nya Cumbermatch, who moved the team into third position leg and handed off to Jaeda Grant. A middle-distance runner who had not raced in the 400 this year, Jaeda not only maintained third place, but she dropped a new gear as she sprinted down the 100 metres stretch to hand off to Elise Dickinson. Elise was not satisfied with bronze and powered the team into second place and the silver medal in 4:03.23.

It is a recurring question from a wide circle of people. My initial reaction would be to bristle at the questioner with a retort such as “we have 60,000 people and Jamaica has nearly three million, we punch way above our weight class, and we do it successfully”. I know that answer is factual, but it does not help to answer a followup statement that I heard from people, which was “well we used to!”

If we are ever going to improve the collective health of the country, minimize antisocial and violent behavior, improve academic performances, establish and improve national pride so that we might compete more favorably with Jamaica, we are going to have to follow the Jamaican formula ... invest.

Invest in school sport, invest in national sport, invest in entertainment and culture, invest in our youth.

The minister’s conversation was extremely poignant and powerful, as we were in the National Stadium at the foot of the Blue Mountains, where thousands of green, gold and black flags were waving, where the heartbeat rhythms of reggae music were blaring and where Jamaican athletes were collecting medals in abundance. All of this — the environment, the national pride, the camaraderie and the athletic success — represented the dividends of Jamaicans’ investment in youth, culture, entertainment and sport.

During the 49th edition of Carifta, I was introduced to Olivia Grange, Jamaica’s Minister of Culture, Gender, Entertainment and Sport. I thanked her for her country stepping in as host and ensuring that the region could return to competition at the Carifta Games. I also congratulated her on her country’s success in athletics.

But the question remains: “Why can’t we compete with the Jamaicans?”

However, she stopped me in mid-sentence, explaining that “we [Jamaica] are reaping the dividends of our investments. We believe that investing in sport, entertainment and youth benefits our goals of improving national health, strengthens our patriotism and love of country, improves our young people’s academic performance, and helps to decrease antisocial behaviors”. She went on to say: “Of course this investment is not a panacea, but the benefits are undeniable.”

Until this trip, I probably would have withdrawn from answering that question because I did have a response that would speak to the reasons why Jamaica has become a world power in athletics specifically and competitive on the international stage in other sports.

You can use free weights, such as barbells, kettlebells, dumbbells, or by using weighted machines. Resistance bands and your own

Make sure that you learn the proper form while weight training. Bad form can lead to injuries such as fractures, strains and sprains if not done correctly. If you’re new to weight training, work with a trainer to learn the correct form. Even those that are more experienced need to brush up on their form sometimes.

Don’t forget the weights

Weight training is a type of strength training for developing the strength and size of skeletal muscles that causes them to get stronger, like the way aerobic activity strengthens your heart.

bodyweight is another great option for strengthening your body.

It doesn’t take long.

You don’t have to work out for an hour a day to see results. For most of us, short weight training sessions at least twice a week is sufficient. You can see significant improvement in your strength with two to three thirty-minute training sessions per week.

Maintain Good Form

I’m sure many have enjoyed all of the walking or running that you’ve been doing for the last few months. However, don’t forget the weights. This year is not over yet and there’s still time to define your muscularity, improve your appearance and fight muscle loss as we age.

I’m sure many of you would like to start weight training, but are not sure where to start or if you can fit it in. See below understand how to get started.

Bermuda Sports Journal | 202214

What is weight training?

Always warmup

Try walking, running or another aerobic activity for five or ten minutes before beginning your weight routine.

Start with one to two sets.

Don’t forget to rest at least a day in between working a specific muscle group so your muscles have a little recovering time. For example, you could work chest and shoulders on Mondays, legs on Tuesdays and so on.

If you’re just beginning, you may find that you can only lift a few pounds and that’s ok. Once your muscles get used to weight training exercises, you will be surprised at how quickly you progress if you are consistent. Once you can easily do 10 to 12 repetitions or more with a particular weight, gradually increase the weight.

Resting is important.

Lean muscle mass will decrease naturally as we age. If nothing is done to replace the muscle loss, it will be replaced with fat. But weight training can definitely help to reverse that trend.

Grab a weight and B-Active For Life!

152021 | Bermuda Sports Journal

Keep improving.

Begin with a weight that fatigues your muscle after about 10 to 12 repetitions. You should be barely able to finish the last repetition.

Start slowly

As your muscle mass increases, you’ll be able to lift weights a lot easier and perform daily task more efficiently. Weight training will also help to maintain your bone density, help with weight control and improve your metabolism. So don’t wait. Go for it!

Humans are energetic beings comprised of cell tissue that forms a mass of energy. Inside these cells are atoms, neutrons, protons and electrons which are all energetically based. Quantum physics shows us how important energy is and this understanding can enable us to develop strategies to enhance both our quality of life and our performance as athletes. When we consider that the human body is comprised of five to 10 trillion cells, imagine the possibilities that exist for us in better understanding our body’s performance!

MONITORING AND MAINTAINING YOUR ENERGY LEVELS

Obtaining the right energy balance in our bodies is a vital part of an athlete’s success equation. This can include the types and amounts of food we eat, the timing of consumptioni.e. before and after practice, as well as aligning it with our training schedules. We may need more or less protein, fat or water. The digestive process converts the food we consume into glucose which is the energy source enabling our bodies to function and perform. This is the most common language we use to discuss “energy”, but let’s consider another.

In subsequent articles we will discuss each of these in greater depth, however, here are a few tips to get you started:

1. Track how you “feel” daily on a scale of 1 – 10. If you wish, capture how you feel both mentally and physically.

Much like how what we choose to eat affects our energy levels and how we perform, what we fuel our mind with and the experiences we choose to have, also affect our energy levels or otherwise, how we “feel”. Our thoughts, ideas and beliefs and attitudes are comprised of energy that fuel our neurotransmitters and neural network which in turn, triggers various reactions in our bodies. To illustrate this, let’s compare a positive thought with a negative thought. When we think about someone we love, we feel “happy”. This causes the release of dopamine and serotonin in our bodies which makes use “feel” good and our minds literally open and function more effectively. Negative, fear-based thoughts cause our brains to constrict and triggers a chemical release that slows our systems down in every aspect. Even though this is a protective mechanism for our human bodies, it does not allow us to function efficiently or effectively and is a much less enjoyable state for us to be in.

As humans, we respond to stimulus and that stimulus triggers various reactions in our bodies. Our “experiences” can be received through our five senses: sight, smell, hearing, touch and taste. Through these experiences, our minds and our bodies send signals through our bodies through an amazing and complex system of neurons, electrons and electromagnetic energy field. So, you may ask the question - why is this important? Here’s why.

To take this thought process one step further, we also know that energetically, when we are in a more positive or productive space, our energy fields are physically vibrating differently than when we are in a negative space or in flight. Sometimes we make comments that someone is so peaceful or “zen” or alternatively, someone is frenzied or “strung out”.

So, if we know that what we think about and the level of energy we fuel our minds with ultimately createsthe quality of our experience, we can develop control of two things i) what we do, think, and feel and ii) how we interact with others.

HOW DOES THIS ALL WORK?

2. Notice your energy levels when you are happy. What did you do that made you happy? Who was around you or contributed to this happiness? What tapes, scripts and thoughts were in your mind?

3. Notice when you have negative thoughts. How does that impact how you feel and your performance in practice? Imagine those thoughts being “pushed” out of your mind and replace them with a happy thought. Does your energy change?

The tragedy is that much of this burden is preventable. Significant preventable risk factors for Type II Diabetes are obesity, inactivity and a poor diet – factors entirely within our control. Even once diabetes develops, with attention to lifestyle factors the disease can often be managed such that blood glucose levels are kept within the normal, non-diabetic range – this is often referred to as “reversal”, although in truth the tendency for high blood glucose levels cannot be eliminated, even if the levels are well-controlled.

Bermuda Sports Journal | 202218

Diet is integral to both weight and glucose intake, so has double importance in the prevention and management of diabetes, and it is not rocket science. The obvious sources of sugars shouldn’t even need explaining – sodas, sweets, cakes and desserts, and these should clearly be avoided or minimised. However, the main source of glucose intake in most diets is not so obvious–carbohydrates. Carbohydrates, the main fuel we turn to when exercising, is broken down in the digestive tract to glucose and absorbed as such. And as the numerous low-carbohydrate diets

Type II Diabetes accounts for 95% of Diabetes; it is a chronic disease in which the body cannot effectively utilize insulin, the hormone that regulates the metabolism of glucose. When the body cannot control glucose levels appropriately, the impact on health is alarming. One of the main effects is that both large and small blood vessels are damaged and, as every organ in the body relies on blood supply to function, an impaired blood supply results in damage to every organ in the body. Some of the first organs to be damaged include the kidneys, which results in renal failure and the requirement to artificially filter blood – a process known as dialysis; the retina, the part of the eye that registers light, damage to which leads to blindness; and, less well recognised, the penis, damage to which leads to early onset erectile dysfunction. As the disease progresses the heart is affected, leading to heart attacks and heart failure, and the blood vessels of the brain, leading to strokes. Diabetes UK estimates that type II Diabetes reduces life expectancy by up to 10 years, and quality of life in the last decades is significantly reduced as diabetics face dialysis, strokes, heart attacks and limb amputations. The incidence of diabetes in Bermuda is particularly concerning. Among the world’s richest countries, Bermuda has the highest rates of diabetes, with approximately 13% of the population suffering from this disease, which is more than double the average among the OECD (Organisation

THE ROLE OF EXERCISE IN PREVENTING AND MANAGING TYPE II DIABETES

for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries. Black Bermudians are even more impacted, among whom the incidence is around 16%. As a result, the incidence of renal dialysis and cardiovascular disease is disproportionately high and constitutes a huge burden on Bermuda’s health service funding.

Exercise also impacts glucose metabolism and insulin-sensitivity in the pancreas, liver and adipose or fat tissue in a whole number of ways. Additionally, chronic, low-grade inflammation is also linked to diabetes and this again is improved by exercise, and can be tracked in the reduction of the pro-inflammatory marker, C Reactive Protein

carbohydrates tend to be our staples – bread, rice, pasta and potatoes. Additionally, almost all processed foods are high in simple carbohydrates. So when you think of diabeticfriendly diets, think natural. Avoid starchy and processed foods and, if you do eat them, go for the least processed options and smaller portions. White tends to be bad; brown or wholegrain rice, pasta and bread is better than white, and sweet potatoes are lower in carbohydrates than white potatoes. Likewise unprocessed meats such as fish, chicken and red meats are almost carbohydrate-free, whereas processed burgers, sausages and breaded nuggets etc., are high in both calories and carbohydrates. Fruits are often listed among unhealthy foods for diabetics because of their sugar content, however, the sugars in fruits are slow-release and they are both high in nutrition and low in calories so, along with other unprocessed foods, fruits feature in the healthy Exerciselist.is

the other factor that impacts blood glucose levels – and far more than just the sugars that are immediately burned for energy. Evidence shows that exercise can increase skeletal muscle uptake of glucose fivefold by increasing glucose transport across cell membranes. As a result, exercise reduces blood sugar for up to 96 hours after the workout by making your body more sensitive to insulin. Furthermore, there is a long-term effect of regular exercise that results in increased insulin sensitivity and insulin responsiveness of skeletal muscle. Central to this, an enzyme which is the major insulin-dependent regulator of glucose

Clarence would win all of his fights as there were only two or three heavyweight boxers in Bermuda and a few expat policemen willing to fight him. As he progressed, fighters had to be brought in from the United States.

The Bermuda Government Department of Youth and Sports approached Clarence with the idea of representing Bermuda at the 1976 Montreal Olympics, he accepted the offer and along with Stanley, started to prepare for the games.

Clarence received a bye in the round of 32, in the round of 16, he defeated Parviz Badpa (Iran) by knockout. In the quarterfinal, he defeated Rudy Gauwe (Belgium) by decision, 5-0 to secure the bronze medal. Clarence said he won the semifinal fight against Mircea Şimon (Romania), but the decision was given to Simon by decision of 0-5 and he was awarded the bronze medal. If Clarence had won the fight, he would be up against Cuba’s Teófilo Stevenson for the gold medal. Some say Clarence threw the silver medal fight because he was afraid of Stevenson. Clarence says differently, but regardless of who is right, Clarence accomplished something no one had done before, he won the first Olympic medal in the history of Bermuda, a bronze medal as a Heavyweight boxer.

Clarence said his father treated his stepchildren as if they were his, and his own children like stepchildren. His siblings, Rupert and Rosemary, adjusted to it, but Clarence struggled with it and ran away from home, skipped school, and wondered the streets of New Jersey until he came across a YMCA gym. The boxing caught his eye and he stopped to watch, when the coach asked if he would like to try his hands in the ring. He took to it really good and started training until the school truancy officer caught up to him. Clarence was taken before the courts and placed in a juvenile home for the next three years.

Clarence is the first athlete from Bermuda to win an Olympic medal in any sport. You would think that he would come home to a hero’s welcome, as he exited the plane and walked across the tarmac, only his mother and Sammy Wilson were there to greet him. No one else, not one Government Official or boxing fan. As he reminisced about that day, he became emotional, he is still hurt that his accomplishment is minimized as nothing. There were promises that the government would build a boxing facility in his honor, we are now in the year 2022, and the facility is yet to break ground. After Montreal, Hill remained an amateur boxer and was hoping to compete at the next Olympic Games in Moscow in 1980, but that dream was shattered when Bermuda was one of the countries to boycotted the Games.

Clarence Hill was born on June 26, 1951, he is the second of three children born to Hillgrove and Ruth Hill and grew up in the Parson’s Road area and attended Central School. When his mother and father divorced, his mother moved to Jones Village in Warwick and transferred to Heron Bay School. His father married Rita Gavin, a U.S. citizen and took his three children with them to live in New Jersey. Rita had four children of her own and Clarence’s troubled life began.

At age 17, he was taken back to court to determine the next course of action, Clarence mentioned to the judge that his mother was in Bermuda and asked if they could send him to her, and the courts obliged. Once he had arrived back in Bermuda, he struggled to adjust, his mother had moved to Dockyard in the far western end of Bermuda, he had no friends and no idea what he wanted to do, only that he liked boxing. Clarence would take the bus to Hamilton where he met Stanley Trim and Sammy Wilson at Pembroke Youth Center. They would continue to develop his boxing skills and entered Clarence in amateur boxing events

Bermuda Sports Journal | 202224

To make matters worse, his mother passed in 1983 and left him homeless. Clarence rented a room in North Hamilton and struggled with depression. His landlord offered him a rock glass with foil for his depression and that first hit of the pipe, hooked him on crack cocaine. The craving for the escape from the depression put him on a trail of stealing, robbery, breaking and entering to feed the addiction. It was during this time that he was dating a young girl, who was also a single mother with a new-born baby and would sometimes stay at her

house in Somerset. On one occasion, a two-pound package of marijuana was delivered to her house, and he was asked to deliver it to a location in Hamilton, but the police arrived at the house, and he took the rap for the package and received an 18-month jail term.

In an attempt to pull his life together, Clarence turned his attention back into boxing, turned pro, entered the United States through Canada, settled in Lynchburg, Virginia, and married U. S. citizen, Robin Logan. He defeated British club fighter David Fry in England on April 14, 1980. He won his first twelve fights and took on a fight against Tony Tubbs at the University of New Mexico in August 1982 but lost by unanimous decision. The earning from the fight afforded him the ability to purchase a home in Virginia. Clarence decided to return to Bermuda to stage his next fight for his Bermuda fans, a decision that he would live to regret. After the fight, he was stopped at the airport because of the drug conviction. He lost his marriage, house and was plunged back into the pit of struggle as he started using drugs again to combat his depression. Clarence Hill’s last fight was in 1986, and his professional boxing record ended with 19 wins (16 by knockout), three losses and a draw.

Today at age 70, he is the father of two children, son Jamaka Gibbons and daughter Takahia Simmons, on November 9th, 2006, Clarence married Connie Smith and finds his peace at the First Church of God on the North Shore.

In 2005, Clarence Hill was inducted into the Bermuda Sports Hall of Fame.

Professional career

After Montreal, Clarence remained an amateur, looking for a chance to compete at the next Games in Moscow in 1980; those aspirations were shattered when Bermuda boycott the Games. So, he turned professional instead, defeating British club fighter David Fry in England on April 14, 1980. After winning his first twelve fights, Hill took on future WBA champ Tony Tubbs at the University of New Mexico in August 1982. Tubbs won in a unanimous decision, and Hill went back to taking on lesser-known fighters, mostly in the USA. Hill’s last bout was in 1986, and he finished with a final pro record of 19 wins (16 by knockout), three losses and a draw.

They had participated in the Mission Bay Triathlon in San Diego on September 25th, 1974, that event was the start of the modern triathlon in the United States.

He also represented Bermuda in the marathon at the 1978 Commonwealth Games, finishing 17th.

James “Jim” Butterfield (born 1 September 1950 in Hamilton, Bermuda) was a rower for Bermuda at the 1972 Olympics.

The IRONMAN was the brainchild of Judy and John Collins, a husband and wife from California who moved to Hawai’i in 1975.

Ironman is now owned by a Chinese conglomerate called Dalian Wanda Group, which paid $650 million for it in 2015. Ironman puts on more than 260 races in 44 countries, with 680,000 annual participants.

In October 1977, Judy and John announced their “Around the Island Triathlon” would take place in 1978. A hand-drawn map, the outline of the course, beginning, and ending in Honolulu. The annual event would be a total of 140.6 miles, a 2.4-mile swim (3.9K), 112-mile bike (180.2K), and 26.2-mile run (42.2K). The three stages would take 10 to 17 hours to complete and establish the world’s ultimate test of endurance.

On February 18, 1978, the first-ever Hawaiian Iron Man Triathlon was held. In 1980, ABC’s “Wide World of Sports” was given permission to film the event, bringing worldwide attention to IRONMAN. In 1997, the Ironman also included the physically challenged athletes.

In 1977, the Judy and John took part in organizing a sprint, run, swim competition in Honolulu, which started the idea to put on a triathlon event the following year.

Up until 2021, he is the only person to ever represent Bermuda in rowing at the Olympics.

Jim finished 7th at the 1981 Ironman World Championship.

The goal was to establish something for the endurance athletes—those who favored events such as the Waikiki Roughwater Swim and the Honolulu Marathon over short sprint events.

Tyler Butterfield, the youngest of two sons to Jim and Debbie Butterfield, has followed in his father’s footsteps, became Bermuda’s first ever professional triathlete in 2002. Tyler became the world’s youngest-ever Olympic triathlete and has been Bermuda’s “Male Athlete of the Year” in 2006 and 2013.

In 1989, the World Triathlon was established, and the first World Championship was held in Avignon, France. The official distance for a triathlon was set at 1,500m (0.9320568 of a mile) swim, a 40km (24.8548 miles) cycle and a 10km (6.21371miles) run.

ten years, the sport of triathlon started to grow in popularity, and gained global recognition.

The elite championship races are held over two distances, the standard and the sprint distance.

In 1991, the World Triathlon unveiled a series of twelve races, in nine different counties called the Triathlon World Cup. The World Triathlon Series is the yearly series of triathlon events used to crown a world champion. It has grown into multiple rounds of competitions ending with a Grand Final race. Athletes from around the world compete head-to-head for points in these events to determine the overall World Triathlon champion.

The Sport of Triathlon was conceived in the early 1970s by the San Diego Track Club as an alternative workout to the demands of track training. The club’s first event consisted of a 10km (6.21371 miles) run, an 8km (4.97097 miles) cycle and a 500m (0.310686 of a mile)

There would be no Flora Duffy if it was not for Jim Butterfield. He is Bermuda’s first Ironman and the founding-father of the Bermuda Triathlon Association. 40 years later, his vision gave birth to Bermuda’s second Olympic medalist Flora Duffy and Bermuda’s first gold medal.

Jim Butterfield is a well-known Bermudian businessman, but he is not your typical businessman. He can oversee the demands of the board of directors, envision the direction of the company, and he can get his hands dirty if he has too. He is not a boss, he is a leader and knows how to socially interact with his staff to support, inspire and bring people from different backgrounds together. Beyond the office, he is involved in sporting activities and in many ways continues to give back to his country and its communities.

In 1977, Jim and a group of running friends who wanted to promote road running races and improve running standards in Bermuda started the first running club, The Mid Atlantic Athletic Club (MAAC). Jim would also play a leading role in establishing the Bermuda Triathlon Association in 1978.

The problem was eventually solved when the commander of the Naval Annex, Captain Leo allowed for the triathlon event to be hosted at Morgan’s Point, in Southampton. They would regularly have two events; a team event first, which drew in the swim, cycle and running club members, a week later they would have the individual event, where each participant would swim, cycle and run.

Jim wanted to do the Hawaiian Ironman Triathlon as a challenge; it is a grueling test of the human will and ability, so he and Gerry Benson started training for it. Jim won the local triathlon in 1980 and set off to Hawaii, where Jim finished 7th and Gerry placed 89th.

Jim, his wife Debbie, Steve Petty and his wife Patty Petty, Peter Lever, and a few others running friends, organized the first triathlon ever contested on the island loosely modeled after the Hawaiian Ironman Triathlon. They had some teething problems, but the seed was planted, and the interest was there. For two years the event centered around the Palmetto Bay Hotel in Flatts, the organizers were all inexperienced and the format was in the wrong order, they swam in the sound, ran, and then cycled around Harrington Sound. The location created traffic congestion and policing issues forcing the event to be relocated to Sands Boat Club in Somerset, but the traffic and policing problem followed them.

Jim had represented Bermuda in the 1972 Olympics in rowing (Sculler), 1978 he ran in Commonwealth Games marathon, finishing 17th and is Bermuda’s first Ironman. In 1980, he and a few friends started the Triathlon Association which led to Bermuda’s second Olympic medal and first gold.

The late John Cash was an accountant and an avid swimmer, he was good with numbers, meticulous about details and would do everything by the book and then some. He enjoyed getting accurate figures, noting the fastest swim, cycle and run, and all by hand. This was a time long before the computer age with scoring chips attached to the athlete’s ankle. John thrived was a Chief Statistician and Master Results guru all with a package of sharp pencils and paper.

Flora Duffy has been lifted into the spotlight with a remarkable feat, an Olympic Gold medalist and that is no small accomplishment. Flora is the product of time, grit, setbacks, and several people who believed in her and helped to influence and shape her journey.

Troy Custodio, the former Port Royal Primary School P.E. teacher started a triathlon club at the school, but Flora was too young, she was only 5 years old. Her mother came by the school and had a conversation with him, and he agreed to let her join. This would be Flora’s initial introduction to the sport of triathlon. She was not fast, but she had a ‘gritty’ determination and a composure that would slowly and steadily pick her competitors down in long distance races like the 1,500 and 3,000 meters.

Steve Burgess, a well-known track athlete in Bermuda, worked as the Environmental Education Officer in the Botanical Gardens at the end of his track career, he turned his attention to coaching ‘upand coming’ athletes. Flora’s parents asked Steve if he would work with Flora, as she needed help with her running. Steve observed that Flora was relentless, driven and would not let bad weather conditions stop her from training. Flora put her training first and it was this unyielding determination that set her apart from others. Steve was trying to encourage her to do track, but she wanted to be a triathlete first and foremost.

Bermuda’s Flora Duffy has been working her way up the international triathlon ladder before claiming her first big title at the 2014 XTERRA World Championships in Maui. She has earned three more XTERRA world titles, two ITU Cross Triathlon World Championships, two ITU World Championships and an Olympic gold medal in Tokyo 2020. Here we highlight some of the people who helped put the wheels in motion.

Neil de Ste Croix is a co-founder of the Tri Hedz junior triathlon club, a development program within the Bermuda Triathlon Association, and he coached Flora from the age of 8 until she left to study her O-levels at Mt Kelly College in England.

In her secondary schooling, Flora attended Warwick Academy and came under the guidance of Mark Thorne, the Head of Physical Education. He noted that she had a rare quality of a highly competitive nature, but she was also battling through a few health issues and injuries.

After the disappointment of her first Olympic Games, Flora was at a crossroad in her career, lost as to the direction of her life. reflecting on the unsettling moment of being lapped on her Olympic debut in Beijing, China, in 2008, it was the lowest point in her career. She did not race for two years and returned to Bermuda where she worked in a local retail store.

Bermuda Sports Journal | 202148

Unsure of her next move, Flora decided to apply to the University of Colorado in Boulder to regain some clarity in her life, she started competing with the university cycling team, before she added swimming and small intervals of running, with the support of Neal Henderson, who would be her coach for next 10 years. Honing her technical skills in the different adaptations of the sport.

Dave Morrison Founder of Tri Hedz Junior Development Program

It was here that she met Dan Hugo, a former professional triathlete, whom she started dating in 2013. He boosted her confidence; it was a huge turning point in her career and her life. Dan added another element to Flora’s racing, she had someone she could train with and who could help her fine-tune her mental edge, he gave her the confidence to regain her passion for the sport. In December of 2017, the couple married in Dan’s hometown of Stellenbosch, South Africa.

Ben Smith coached Flora in the Sharks swimming club from the age of eight to about 14, he said she is a strong and fast swimmer who mastered various strokes. Whether it was realized or not, Flora was putting the individual meets of swimming, running, and cycling together to build the base of a strong triathlete. Flora also holds the record for under 18 Girls in the Front Street Mile with a time of 5:33.62 set in 2004.

The road to her Olympic dream would not be easy, she competed in the Olympic Games in 2008 Beijing Olympics, London in 2012, and Rio de Janeiro in 2016 where she failed to meet her expectations. The hopes and dreams were mentally and physically draining, so she took some time off, resolved her issues and came back stronger. Flora always said how she wanted to be the best in the world and now she has done it in Tokyo 2021 and true to who she is, she contacted all the people who have supported her along the way.

Steve Burgess said as a rule, he never answers his phone with numbers he cannot identify, but for some reason he answered the phone. The voice on the other

Troy Custodio, now retired and living in England, watched the Olympic games from the comfort of his home. He could not contain his anxiety as Flora pushed ahead of second place as they headed out of the final transition and into the 10-kilometre run. Flora would finish more than a minute clear of Georgia Taylor-Brown, of Great Britain, and American Katie Zaferes.

side said, “Hi Steve”, and he asked, who is this? “It is me, Flora.” Steve was ‘floored’, the world is calling you and you are calling me! She said yes, just wanted to thank you.

Earl Basden is the mastermind behind Island Stats, Bermuda’s number one sports information website for photographs, videos, interviews, records and sports stats.

From 2014, Earl has also covered all of Bermuda’s international events through his relationship with the Bermuda Olympic Association. We have not only broken new ground at the highest level in sports achievements, but we have also opened the door for Bermudians to capture their own glory.

Bermuda Sports Journal | 202254

For the first time, an official Bermudian photographer would experience what it is like to feel the atmosphere, emotions and the agony or triumphs of our athletes in an international event while still doing their job of capturing all of it. With 300 yards to go from the finish line, Earl emotions started to run down his cheeks, like many of us watching the event on TV, we cried with the realization that Flora has done it, Bermuda’s second Olympic medal and first Gold.

When Flora crossed the finish line in first place for the Olympic Women’s Triathlon Gold Medal, Earl was right there for the greatest moment in Bermuda’s sports history.

In 2014, Earl had a chance conversation with the President of the Bermuda Olympic Association, Mrs. Judy Simons about the fact that Bermuda has always depended on international media/ photographers to provide us with coverage of our athletes. Mrs. Simons took that conversation, had a meeting with her committee and offered Earl the opportunity to be Bermuda’s first media/press Attache` for international events.

After the win, Flora was fulfilling her duties with the international media and Earl’s press credential did not allow him access. Flora stopped the questioning briefly and walked over to Earl stating, “I need to talk to the Bermudian media” and the press followed her over. It is a moment in his life that he said he will never forget, it is a level of respect that he had never felt before. It was an opportunity that was afforded to him by the Bermuda Olympic Association that he will forever be thankful.

Earl Basden is the mastermind behind Bermuda’s number one sports information website for photographs, videos, interviews, records and stats, Island Stats.

In some cases, he has more information about local clubs than the clubs have about themselves. Bermuda Sports Journal sat down with him to talk about his trip to the 2021 Olympics in Japan and how it was a historic moment for him.

To honor and recognize Flora Duffy’s historic accomplishments, a schedule of events for the day was announced, that also include the recognition denied to Bermuda’s first Olympic, bronze medal winner, Clarence Hill.

Flora Duffy has achieved something that no one in Bermuda had ever done before, she earned an Olympic Gold medal. The win came in the sport of triathlon in a time of 1:55.36, a minute and 14 seconds ahead of second-place TaylorBrown from the UK.

On October 18th, 2021, Bermuda declared “Flora Duffy Day”, a public holiday in recognition of Flora’s gold medal success in the Tokyo Olympics. After three unsuccessful attempts to medal at the Games in Beijing, London and Rio de Janeiro, Flora realized her childhood dream of winning Olympic gold on July 28th, 2021.

Flora Duffy is a 10-time world champion and the first triathlete in history to be crowned both the World and Olympic Champion in the same year. The Olympic Gold medal accomplishment had prompted Bermuda to do something that was not done when Clarence Hill earned Bermuda’s first-ever Olympic medal, the bronze at the Montreal Games in Canada 1976, to celebrate the athlete and the achievement.

Olympic champion Flora Duffy was treated to a hero’s welcome in what proved a meaningful occasion as people lined the streets from the airport to her high school, Warwick Academy and on to the Cabinet Office to meet the Premier, David Burt. Bermuda welcomed home their greatest athlete.

Gosling Brothers Limited, a Bermudan company best known for blending and distributing rum, launched a limited release of aged rum, called ‘Flora Gold’. The collaboration with Olympic gold medalist will see the first 15 bottles, which have been autographed by Flora and put to be auctioned with proceeds going to benefit the Flora Fund, which supports aspiring Bermudian athletes. Each bottle has been hand dipped in black sealing wax, signed, and numbered by Flora Duffy herself.

Flora was born between two brothers, Joel (blue shirt) is the oldest and Campbell is the youngest.

The Hamilton Princess & Beach Club renamed one of its rooms as The Flora Duffy Suite. Room, 549, is where the Olympic gold medalist has usually stayed and could be seen training on the balcony.

AXA XL Man on the run started and finished in a steady downpour.

The AXA Man on the Run is a 5K run/walk event designed to help promote physical fitness through healthy outdoor activity and to bring attention to prostate cancer awareness with annual check-ups. Clifford Roberts, race director, who has lost a few friends, saw the need to organize an annual event to encourage men to commit to running or walking at least 3.1 miles or 5K in an official event or at your own pace, on your own time.

Butterfield & Vallis and Bermuda Cancer & Health Centre have been unwavering support sponsors of the “Man on the run” event. This year the event title sponsor AXA has changed to AXA XL, but the cause remains the same. As a men-only event, men can discuss the importance of annual health checks, knowing the risk factors for prostate cancer, and to raise funds so that Bermuda Cancer and Health Centre can continue to make these uncomfortable topics everyday conversation.

100 per cent of all funds donated to Bermuda Cancer and Health Centre will be used to support local men’s health initiatives including the free annual men’s health screening events.
