Clemente Alonso will defend his title in the Extreme Man 113 Menorca

The Eden of triathlon opens its doors again to all lovers of sports and wild environments. Limited to 500 participants, the second edition of the most surprising race of last season also attracts the Spanish elite.

The fittest Spanish triathlete of the moment, Clemente Alonso, will defend his crown on September 25 in Fornells, where the second edition of the Extreme Man 113 Menorca will be held. It will be one of the last objectives of the year for the man from Salamanca, and a good opportunity to enjoy the surroundings of the island, which he especially appreciates: “I am returning because I want to defend my title of course, and because I really liked the event and its landscapes. . “Last year I was disappointed because I didn't have enough time to visit Menorca.”

But his rivals will not make it easy for him, starting with Xavi Llobet. The Catalan will come with a spirit of revenge, after having abandoned the race due to injury last year, while he was leading the race on foot. Other Short Distance references will compete for victory, such as David Castro (2010 Spanish runner-up) and Jose Manuel Tovar (2008 Spanish champion). Although they do not have Clemente's experience in the long distance, his great quality could take them to the top of the podium.

As for Santi Pellejero, the triathlete from Mataró will have an outsider role. His swimming power will propel him forward in the crystal clear waters of Fornells Bay, but will he be able to resist the pressure of his pursuers? The answer on September 25.
