I am the fastest man in Mexico and
power to practice how it is that
my life came day by day and everything based
in a philosophy that is to be an athlete
in everything that I do as they say
big big waves small beginnings
and for mine it was not the exception anymore
they practiced that I am Mexican
I love saying that I am Mexican
the colors that our
flag is something amazing to do outside
abroad and show the country
the other countries that nothing else are
things like drug trafficking and corruption
but very beautiful things
mariachis good food good beaches
beautiful people and good athletes
it also does not go back not many can
say how much the royals believe
and so good when they come here and in
all the greatness of our city what
what our friend just explained
previously it is something very very good to
I love to also say that it
I ‘m not a tech civil engineer
from monterrey whenever they expect this
university passed by ay for the
avenue eugenio garza sada and the service
but I tell them to study and
semi-basement and is also by
conclude my master’s degree in direction of
the construction only between the
thesis and I ‘m left with the title but
good as I told him all the stay of
small businesses and in sports
this is mine here I am running
and today in tampico was born in monterrey
but I could rot and I’m here
running in the mini Olympics that
Because I have a lot of energy, I always
they will run and also do many
sports but going to the next plane
I’m the fastest man in Mexico
world at the moment I have the record
Mexican in the 100 and 200 meters flat
my strong test that was in those who
he ran Olympic games are the 200
meters
here I have 20 points 17 seconds to
that is an idea the 200 meters in the
Half a running track which
they have only seen half of them and in
these 20 points and seven seconds to
time that went through him I want
at 19 seconds there are only 10
people every year
in those times that’s my goal is to be
in the world top 10 for this next
year and then well I am doubly
Olympic at the age of four that I started
to be an athlete qualifies london
there are people who have their whole lives in the
sport trying and doing a very
good effort and unfortunately not
give them to me I was given the opportunity and
Well, as I knew I had a talent that
it takes advantage and keep going
this is where the room comes from
important what are their qualities
if you do not know what your
qualities will not be able to develop them
so the first step is to go into
in oneself and say what I’m good at
that what I can do for example already
they are mentioned by a person with
A lot of energy
from boy walk to the trees in
this the fences my mom me
Cache many times of falling hit me
I tend to be very positive also for
why why I like to see the
life with joy I do not like to see it with
sadness
I am a person that I entrust myself
I know God does not fail me as a mom
I can not fail but he does not fail me
and in what I love, I give everything
I am a very hardworking person
that’s why when they can do something to me
I do not like much to lift a little
but this one in what I love I do
and then with much desire
I am a very loyal person I do not like that
speak badly to the people why because the
loyalty is the principle of trust
and that confidence is going to give things very
good but as I told you the simplest
more for this important is that it is a
imperfect person
when we understand that we are
imperfect and that we can have to fail
everything will be easier Attach one
stumbling on the road will cost us
because we know it’s something that has to
happen to be able to move forward
so I gave them to know each other
they have to know each other
Dedicate yourself to know your limits so that
someday they may get to surpass
the seriously
give a very strong emphasis this to
that you can excel day to
day in suspense your goals
now that they know they know their
its qualities
you have to ask yourself about the goals and
objectives
I for example the main goals and
objectives that I had was this one
bachelor’s degree
I think everyone here dads
they have to tell us switzerland is that my son
so you can work outside
you need to be prepared my worst part
with a race to prepare you with a
mastery what else if you want to do
It will also be important but
first get ready after that
after the degree
I also want to have a family
I would love to have a woman by my side
see children running is something that I
I’d love to do and I’m working
also for this and then also a
very important thing is to exploit my
qualities and my talents to the fullest
because my mom since childhood
always told me son if you have a
talent and not the flee villages are you
throwing away the trash everything that had you
so that’s why I dedicated myself to
I loved it, I knew it was good
he played races to the cars so that
they would run over if I saw they are
Avenues pass the cars and I cross
running or he played races to the
dogs
in fact done once also I
they tried to try to steal me
they took out a knife but they did not
they expected that I was the fastest
of the country was then I went running
and did not reach the guy not then
scared but my speed I get out and
good one more thing
I recommend that I always worked
a lot so that every time the effort that
make it less what I mean
I train every day at seven
the strong morning is raining
turning blinking why because
I want every time my career that already
show them that photo is running be
less in less time
if he did not train him he worked hard at
otherwise it’s going to be more and more
slow and good as I told you there
many falls many trips and that’s not
It has been the exception in my life
everyone can see and say hey you know
that this guy has the possibility
talent but do not know what it is that
do to get to these points and then
well we have to resurface as
we do in this picture was where I ended up
my participation in Olympic games
of river was after the semifinal
I ‘m going to show you some videos and
what I most
stressed that I want to emphasize in this
picture is that I had some very very goals
great and if I have that face it’s because
so big was the fall that I had the
moment of not achieving them
but as I say we have to resurface
the obstacles are present in
our day to day we can have a
bad attitude when we wake up that does not
lift and global seek coffee mug
to be able to activate we can have
also a bad attitude of third parties
people
the people that surround us and do
our work and make our friends
if for example I was always told
when I was in civil engineering
They told me not to tell you to be
athlete is 22 years old and is
big you’re old you’re not black this
sport for black people by
it’s a boom this Mexican was the
tan that sows violence and race
and copper the strongest in the world I do not
is doing less compadre I want
be it then always to give bad
attitude of doing you and also the
people accidents are things that do not
can we this one plan in 2015
mimi year went perfect there was no
injuries
I was stronger than never
fast I had never opened with a
personal brand that year and I’m going to
holland where I’m going to start something was going to
go on to compete in some competitions
they are called diamond league
that is the strongest grand prix there is
in athletics worldwide usain bolt
they have red the good thing is that
you know they go there then I was going to
have a series of five or six
competitions for a month and it will be
competing almost this finger of one or two
times for every week is in europe
took to holland and in my first
competition one day before competing in
the truck that was not coming back from
the track to the hotel because he had gone to
make a smooth trot
I did not put on my seatbelt
because I was making my protein and in
That ‘s a brake and I fly
I was five centimeters from breaking
spinal column
I hit myself very hard on the
low back left side
I had to return it to us as
they know they send them in classrooms but I had to
ask the organizer
in business class because I could not
hold and was going to be holding
sitting 889 hours not then would
cost on the whole flight could not
get what Monterey could not
I had to move in a chair
of wheels and I was unemployed for six months and
I said my god to the next years
Olympic games that I’m going to do
I had to resurface I started to work and
things came out
well we can also have problems
personal not whether you cut the
girlfriend dies the dog does not report
some exam and so on but how do you
I tell the success stories always go
accompanied by innumerable challenges
failures and adverse situations and
everything that I mentioned to them what
The main thing that can happen is that
We have a personal credibility and we
I can assure you that if you do not have
credibility what they want to do
they will not achieve absolutely nothing can
be the whole world bring you what are you going
achieve then have the whole world to
make your projects
here you have everything you do not lack anything but
If you want to do it, you will not achieve
the goal that you propose
but you also have to learn to
identify where that little comes from
personal credibility
if I can assure you because my
experience has been that many come from
the teachings of the home you go in
against what they teach you in your home
or that you have a little family support for
example of your parents from your uncles
your cousins a time a little chicken the
people around you that your friends will
say hey you know that instead of going
if you train, go to the party tell me
every weekend or you no longer go out
godfather
today I have to train tomorrow 7 I have
that I train five hours I have to
sleep another three hours
aside the afternoon I have to eat my
hours and did not succeed
the fear of failure is another one of those
things that I tell you does not say is that it’s going to
achieve will not achieve it
imagine me having everything against a
Mexican doing speed after
gabriela guevara who you know
what happens that shits speed
nobody vino cárdenas managed something strong
also but there have not been sprinters in
the story as there are footballers of the
history of mexico that walk or
half background
fear of the unknown in london
2012 I did not know what I was going to face
I did not know I was going to face a
stadium
80 thousand people where here nothing more
100 people come to see us sometimes not
the dads will see the same is and
I could compete and you can also think
that you have an uncertain future how
can say today the project that then
invest 812 years I will go out to row
and row the youth week opportunities
but how do you know what’s going to come out
So I said, I’m going to give him no
nothing happens and the challenges became
obstacles when I gave myself when you give
expired with them
that was something that I never wanted this
take them as a wall and good to fail
losing not achieving it but ending everything
the truth is that I do not put here the
he what was the london competition
2012 and up to channel 5
as I say a stadium completely
full there it started I did not expect
that the one who laughs next there was a
British
all the stadium victory to the british
And I got the adrenaline rush
before competing I put on the skin
little girl because I never knew what’s left
that this competition was not and in
that moment I already said here it’s over
all
he could not reach it the race lasted
21 seconds for me the one who won mail
20.54 but I said it’s over no limits
I put them on I do not know anyone who
have won if ever
stumbled all things are two the
everyone thinks that things are
impossible until someone achieves
so I said no to put to work
because today’s struggle to the
strength that I will need for the day
in the morning and there are the trainings and
here we come to Rio 2016
here where I resurface there is more
relaxed better physicist we already have
experience
if I go out and I relaxed doing my
career
for this he had already had trips in
many sides of the world is already entering
with the world’s best people yes and
here at this point I was I knew
what I had to do
I relaxed I ran well I went towards
forward has decided now I am the first
Mexican who has won a hit
eliminator in speed in a test
where Mexico never transcended and has
flooded at the end to celebrate it
why is he very happy not the
camera and so with me and boss that
enjoy the moment
then I tell them I can accept to fail
but I will never accept not to try
you have to have this comes in
account the trips are not faults
have to say sometimes you win already
Sometimes you learn, take away the word
fail your vocabulary and I assure you that
it’s going to come out everything’s going to turn out well
so I thank you very much always
I always tried what does not happen that they fail
remember that we are imperfect Nazis
[Applause]
