Jose Manuel Tovar will be this weekend in the couples triathlon, Guadalajara

The Casares triathlete sponsored by Marca Extremadura, will compete tomorrow in the Olympic Couples Triathlon, Guadalajara, which will serve as part of the preparation for the next Spanish Elite Triathlon Championships that will be held in September and where Jose Manuel is always one of the favorites as they treasure their last years where they did not drop out of the top four.

Tovar is facing this season with difficulties, where injuries are being his biggest impediment to performing at his best, but he hopes to be able to finish the season successfully. ”A few weeks ago at the Extremadura Triathlon Championship I felt very good and I was able to compete without pain in my knees, but after the competition I noticed pain again in training and although I have not stopped training and I am enduring the pain as best I can, I trust that little by little the discomfort will dissipate and I will be able to enjoy the last training sessions and competitions of the season.”

In addition to the Couples Triathlon, Jose Manuel's training group will use the weekend to go sightseeing in Madrid. ”Little by little I am transmitting that this sport is not just training and competing, and for this competition we are going with 6 athletes and 5 companions where in addition to enjoying watching us compete they will be able to do tourism through sport, on Saturday we will go to see some monologues and on Sunday we will go to museums in Madrid, sport is the true quality of life, and not partying every weekend and eating hamburgers.

Águeda Rodríguez, María Eugenia Solana, Vero Tovar and Javier Barragán from the Cáceres Triathlon Club and Antonio Fabuel from the Extremadura Triathlon will compete alongside Tovar.
