Why Do You Tri? - Javier Manrique
Facing several challenges in my life I am inspired by the many people over 60 that have fiished Triathlons. I was a DNF 12 yearss ago at the Marathon des Sables in the Sahara Desert and it still bothers me. I have not given up running another endurance marathon. I hope a mini triathlon will be my come back.
