119 Running as an act of defiance Corriendo por rebeldía Hasta el kilómetro 26 se sintió invencible. A partir de ahí, como si alguien hubiese apagado el interruptor. Pero Valencia empuja, y cuando la ciudad arropa en pasillos de ánimos, uno recuerda por qué está aquí. Su historia con el running empezó casi por rebeldía. Su padre llevaba años intentando que él y su hermana corrieran y, justo cuando se cansó de convencerles, Alberto decidió hacerle caso. Cosas de hijos. Un buen día se plantó en la salida de su primer maratón junto a su padre y lo terminaron de la mano. En Valencia hizo el mismo tiempo que aquella vez. Asuntos del destino. Up until kilometre 26, he felt invincible. But then, it was as if someone had turned off the switch. However, Valencia pushes you on, and when the city envelops you, with the crowds cheering encouragement, you remember why you are here. His relationship with running began almost out of defiance. His father had been trying for years to get him and his sister to take up running, and just when he had given up trying to persuade them, Alberto decided to listen to him. That's how children are. Then, one fine day, he lined up at the start of his first marathon alongside his father, and they finished it hand in hand. In Valencia, he ran the same time as he did that day. That's how fate is.
