Ramón Arroyo returns 10 years later to compete in Calella. 

It was the inspiration for the film “100 meters” by Dani Rovira  

The history of Ramon Arroyo It is one of those narratives that transcends sport. 

Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and facing a prognosis that told him he would never run 100 meters again, Arroyo decided to defy all expectations.

A path of improvement 

The life of Ramon Arroyo changed when he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. 

However, instead of giving up in the face of adversity, he found in sports a way to show that limits are in the mind.

Ten years after his first participation in the Challenge Barcelona, Arroyo returns, this time to face the IRONMAN® 70.3®, a challenge that promises to be as exciting as it is inspiring.
