37volcano_lastdaybanner THE ACOMPLISHMENT
Friday 20th of November; rarely in life something goes exactly according to planed; this was exactly the case, things went better than planed. The athletes finished the Challenge in 8 days and 11 hours.

Willie Benegas said “If we were to do it again today, with what we have learned we would probably do it in 6 days”. Juan Carlos Sagastume complemented saying “now we have to look forward, towards the future, and see what new challenges this brings us”

They climbed up 37 volcanoes, reached the summit, and then they climbed down.

Today we held a press conference inside the TNF store in Guatemala, we had media coverage from all over the country; TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, etc.

The Challenge was a success, the athletes finished with a few bumps and bruises, their legs cut up and their knees and feet swollen, but overall they are doing very well, they returned home safe and sound.

Tomorrow there is another conference planed inside the Oakland Mall, where anyone can attend. We are expecting about 400 listeners.

Hopefully we will have more images and video to send your way soon…

37volcano_lastdaybanner EL LOGRO
Viernes 20 de noviembre; pocas veces en la vida cuando uno ejecuta un plan, este se lleva a cabo a la perfección; este fue exactamente el caso, las cosas salieron exactamente como se planearon. Los atletas terminaron el Desafío en tan solo 8 días y medio.

Willie dijo “Si lo volveríamos a hacer ahora que ya lo hicimos una vez, creo que lo podríamos sacar en 6 días”. Juan Carlos complemento diciendo que “ahora vienen otros retos, hay que ver hacia el futuro.”

Los atletas subieron a la cima de los 37 volcanes, y luego han bajado.

El día de hoy se ha llevado a cabo una conferencia de prensa dentro de la tienda TNF en Guatemala. Se presentaron medios de cada rincón del país; TV, radio, prensa, revistas, etc.

El Desafío ha sido un éxito, un gran logro, los atletas terminaron con unos cuantos golpes y moretes, las piernas cortadas y las rodillas y pies hinchados, pero se encuentran bien y han regresado sanos y salvos a la ciudad.

Mañana se tiene planeada otra conferencia dentro del centro comercial Oakland Mall, en la cual los atletas hablarán de su experiencia y el Desafío de los 37 volcanes. Esperamos alrededor de 400 personas.

Esperamos tener más imágenes y videos pronto para compartirlos con ustedes.
