It's a very stressful situation, but when you get to the first ball the people have spaced out, that each one picked up their rhythm, and that's when I started to feel good. The bicycle is where I have enjoyed the most because it gives me better and as I have left the water late, the people start always giving you a plus of joy. " explained Santi.
