What’s in your MP3 Player? From classical music to jokes in Spanish
Biggest Pet Peeve: I don´t have a clue of what is this!
What would you do with $100,000 if you won Hawaii?
I still have three projects in my life: to cross the English Channel, to climb up the Everest and to help some foundation for challenge athletes. This money would help me carry out these projects.
Anything else we should know about you?
I plan to hold the record for being the only person in the world who has done every Ironman after I do the new Australia course this year.
