[Music]

ashley me

thank you very much

[Applause]

I frankly do not know if I’m going to teach

something but surely I’m going to learn

a lot of you or the eu towards me

they had said charge it was with either

but I was told that the room had 100

people

now there are 25

we have 18 minutes to meet us to see

yes the 100 people that are in this

we managed to find it at one point

concrete

hello how are you I was glad to you my

name is enrique llimona and I am a

current person who advances and who is going to

move to the transparency step

the project was presented to come

call stronger than fear and you leave me

to allow us to move to a

different place and in a moment

different

today is no longer today today is the 16th

September of 2016 and we are in the

punta umbría beach

those are my feet are in the sand are

10 and 45 at night and I’m on the edge

from the sea and I am tremendously nervous

I’m frankly scared and I

he asked repeatedly what I do there

at the foot of the sea

there are people around me and in their face bo

nervousness also some friends are

they approach and they greet me but they greet me

that way like when it’s going to be a

goodbye forever and they say ‘good’

goodbye kids looked for the look of

my wife and tried to avoid it quickly

because I see that she is much more nervous

that I and then I take the steps and

then I think that in the sea there are two

boats one is

the producer who will tax the documentary

stronger than fear

another is the torrent valencia where is

my father my father tried to dissuade me

many times you do not

but seeing that it was not possible did not

He was forced to join me in

earth are two stars left one in my

mother stays in a house in mazagón

always pending always worried

she

she fights against her own truth

reach on the shore is my wife

looking at me in that way that who does not

could explain the does not have translation

possible

welcome welcome to stronger than

fear the longest triathlon in

continuous format never completed by

a person without stopping

11 with nine kilometers swimming 524

kilometers by bicycle and 100 kilometers

running already 12 that people first thing

who asks and enriches but non-stop and

I say yes non-stop and I know but not at all

for nothing in the name understand it for

some things yes and how he eats and I think

that people think they took an arc

the bicycle and that today hitting the

arrowed unemployment but name I have a

team a team that was initially of

23 people and that ended up being 400

people and the team has one thing in

common with me that we are not experts for

nothing in which we are doing everything

we do what we can but nothing anyone

have experience in a test like

this is impossible to have an experience

a test like this because nobody has

done and then board or board shore

I realize that stronger than

fear has a goal that is not to beat

a record stronger than fear has

the objective I am a consultant

human resources today a coach I’m not a

athlete

I am an athlete I do not dedicate myself to my sport

definition as an athlete is commonly

accepted as a package I am the package in

the seville marathon reaches 10

Last of the last 15 but it is not

there is a test that the last one does not arrive

I have speed the leg but that

besides, I’m not just a package in the

sport is that I also have difficulties

of learning since small

more than I regret to admit it but maybe

recognizing it was the beginning of a

new way to me stronger than

fear is a sporting event that

tries to show that with perseverance

with humility and resilience of

ordinary people people

current we are able to do

possible the impossible and I tell you from

the certainty that we are capable of

get our dream because my dream

be here today you are what I am

fulfilling at this time

total water has me what remedy

if something has been learned in life there is

many times it is better not to think

because if you think twice wrong we’re going

small beige detail those dots

oranges that are there in the middle I would say

and what is it we are in the middle of the sea

accompanied ten swimmers in the first

run of 11 with nine kilometers ten

swimmers who had come from

different points of Spain including one

that had come from the Canary Islands to

do the joint voyage and to avoid

lose us and if it is true that although there

Sometimes you think that thinking is not what

suitable

once you get into the sea you give yourself

account that some reflections that

chando things

that’s me

12 years ago

12 years ago when I started this

realized that the change is a moment

the change is a click

the change is not a process the change the

precise second in your decision

concrete and many times it is enhanced

because of the fear

again it is potentiated by pain and

again it is empowered by a person

I was provoked by a person who is

sitting here in front or in the front row

he was a trainer for a fame the

consultant nationwide and I was his

and he said to me with a lot of affection

quique lee lee uncle you understand me the

connotation sdl uncle you already worth your

wants to dedicate trainer reads

there are people who love you

they really cause you pain but also

they set you up and effectively I

law because the truth that I do not no no

just think a lot about things and the danger

that has the ere that can end

believing what you read I sumo create a

new finish believing what I read and read

about motivation I read a lot about

motivation one read everything everything

you have seen motivation what I read

I read up to 344 is the forrest book

gump that there is no motivation

There are times when it’s best not to think

but others that did arrive at port 2 with

50 hours later and begins to notice that

it happens something stroke to stroke we have

lit a fire that we do not

We expected to start , that is, what

only we received before the test

it was a few pages smiles of

people who told the madman this one already

others for or that is believed machine of

world that is going to do triathlon and and

then because there was a bomb in a

mock facebook and such and when

we ended the swim curiously

there was a media spot called

now media spot

if it ‘s what they call it now and and that

he was carrying all of Europe hey

surprisingly there were 30 people

waiting for us in the port of el rompido

and and even my father-in-law had taken

cake and I had to be great that

what were we doing then leaving

we left the ten swimmers of the water and the

wind had rolled to north

that wind cooled the temperature and

he would continue the breaths of

our mouth and quickly left the water

received all the press that to all the

people who came out of the water

and I started to change because I had left

I had a long way to go and

while I was changing

I thought about the second moment he made me

change and did that miss who is

there is my wife one Christmas morning

I had not seen her for work for three months

and he called me and he said no need

he wants me to come to this our house

but he said the keyword said yes

you want and then it made me think that

I really want I’m living life

I want to live, I really am

twisting I’m driving at my will

destination that I am doing to leave

of the river that I’m in and I made myself

the question what would I do if I did not have

scared and I went to the company that morning with

the briefcase in my hand and I went to talk with

its general director and great friend of mine

which I received a lot of understanding and

support and I left that morning the

office I rode in the car

I took the highway to huelva and

halfway I stopped throwing up of

that I had no idea what I was

doing

I wanted to start a new life

I wanted to tear down the complexes

that he had created for years he did not want

be that person with difficulties

of learning I wanted to face 34

years a new degree to get me a

master wanted to develop a new

deal

I wanted to change my life and I stuck me

a frontal crash the couple was not in

imagine because I signed up for the

university for the degree of

occupational sciences and I sat down and I gave

mind that when they tell you that they have a

ph one TDH is not just theory but

it really has it under

I spent four months studying one

subject in a desk and I took a 5

peeled and I said look dude, you better

I start looking for a job because this does not

it is going well

of spending eight hours studying at 2

looking for work I started looking

small courses in cabinets

physiotherapy of customer service and

pass and spend eight hours doing that and two

hours to study how he was late to

home

I took the notes rolled one in a

cartridge this and I was going to walk around and

I was walking and walking and I discovered that my dog

activity went down or hyperactivity

I would go down and concentrate and walk

I discovered that the 127 kilos I had

I also lowered the bachelor’s degree

labor sciences in a year and a half

with about 18 honors

we are different even we are

different we use the same roads that

those that are not

there are paths for everyone and then I gave

account one night studying crack of 29

I left Huelva with my frontal on the

head everyone already knew me the

che crazy notes to reach a

a greenway that has huelva and and me

I got the theory absolutely and suddenly

I felt that the ground trembled

below me and it was in shady tip

had traveled 23 kilometers from the

six in the morning I called susana told him

darling point weather umbria and you know that

things are going to change

they’re going to change because I’m sure I have

the certainty because the one who has a

belief has a hope but the one that

has the certainty assumed

I am certain that I am going to twist the

destination I’m going to become a

long-distance sportsman to give

immediate example already vega ya package

so I’m going to do triathlon more

long the world has made impossible

man and I learned little by little to understand

that when someone tells you it’s

impossible is not it impossible that I

they do not seem capable of doing it

Well there we go out at night in

the port of el rompido and the night was

long because I had to pedal

lonely

there was no more internet stain or

nothing

a person next to me but good the

night passed and the day came and in the day

people of all began to appear

the corners

along the way they accompanied more than 400

cyclists entered 20 minutes or left to

115 kilometers others made 50 and I saw

that everyone was attentive to me

all the world

you have water you have food how do you

find and I was stuck in my world

I had on the bike to be a bit

special he had a wheel behind him

lenticular that sounded a boom boom boom and

I got to lose track of time

people ask me how is it possible that you

It will take 24 hours by bicycle has

notion of time I did not answer from

automatically the questions that I

they did today is that how are you doing

you feel good I’m already in a world

parallel

I only listened to the lenticular wheel and the

sound of my heart and then I find

that’s what they call full attention

mindfulness flipout what one discovers

tests cha doing was passing the

time and over time I realized that

here start and where you have to go true not

and here is part donaire and it was not worth

for nothing the kilometers took away the

little bit that I had left

calzones had been broken by the way

apart they had me a new one

it was a waste people covered me me

put behind people so that I do not

the wind gave the wind that the wind

at 20 kilometers per hour just a

a year later I would get in and realize that

that when it then disappears when not

we make them with things for me

to reinforce medium so that he knows and

how important it is to get rid of you

york machine that beat the record of the

world you realize that it is only a means

and I realize by a very anecdote

curious

we go as a team are four of the

late

the almonte road and we are going to

approximately 300 kilometers

tours and one of the people who are going

the group that was just behind me I was going

penultimate and the last one stays behind is

shebabe behind in 50 meters and obvious

that gets red as a pepper

because we had picked up a little bit more

speed the account at that time and not

I know what goes on in my head but it squeezes

brake brake pitol and at that time

you see how other people are going to

march and I stay behind and in those 200

meters that squeeze the brake I go for

back I understand it

I smile and when he came to the uncle he gave

thank you thank you thank you for having me

removed the head from my navel

thank you for giving you a new

meaning to all this thanks because more

stronger than fear will not show going

to serve the same as being here and

above going to serve is not going to prove

and then reaches the transition are 24

hours by bicycle are approximately

the one daughter we do calculations vouchers are

they sell are 24 hours by bicycle

I told myself because I was very tired and c

524 instead of 500 kilometers of quito

little everything that happens and and well I got it

of the bicycle in the town of Punta

shady in a boot camp

I’m leaving quickly a small room

toilet that was there that was being

celebrating a wedding and in the n n if you

works says these things happen

if there was not another day to celebrate the

wedding have that same day

then it puts you in rooms and it starts to

start it

Well, there I’m going to remove the

calzones and surprisingly I had not

realized that he had two races per

these things to tell because they are

certain and the experience are for

tell her had I had done throughout

of the 24 by bicycle two casualties in the

discussions and taking off my pants

I had my pants tucked inside my body

and when I take off my pants, I crack the

blood camp freed freely

then he took off my pants

to put on my shoes to run there

blood begins to flow in gushes

I stomach upset that I have already

yes heel of eat so much skewer of

tortilla for 24 hours that vomit and

that are tesco and the situations to

cry ‘no after more than 27 hours

doing sport in a room shit

of a campsite lost in tip

shady with a drunkard calling the

door stronger than fear then

something happens

He heard my wife’s voice tell me that

is fine and my eyes open and I do not

it was scary I did not say yes out of fear what

I promise

that love no no I did not realize that

I could be suffering

she had been awake since

principle was also the provisioning

all the test and charms and love

I’m fine and I remembered her and I

I remembered and I remembered I remembered my

mother and of people who are going through it

really bad and they are suffering and

I picked up the clean toilet paper that

I brought the tears I put in the

area I got up and I realized that only

one thing only one thing is stronger than

fear only love is stronger than

fear only love leads you to be

constant until death

only love takes you to be

resilient to pain only love

only love makes you humble and and

duck your head in a lot

situations and the rest good the rest

nothing came out I said good we’re heating

nothing more than 100 kilometers of

career

the night was running among the pines

and at seven in the morning and the body

I said I just do not want anymore you

abandonment

leave me alone and it was the most

strong that fear made the decision to

who hears by the way that the opposite of

high

but that the opposite of high beni now

really that the opposite of high that

otherwise narrow the glass or if

contrary to white and otherwise

success I realized at that moment that

for me the opposite of success nor the

failure if I do not settle stronger than

the fear is to go with everything because when

you go with everything destroyed the fear

I knew I was not going to finish the test

I knew it I was loaded 500 meters already

was to burst the body had

reached the limit was in the kilometer

Career 34 I get up there was like 20

people waiting say let’s run

luis enrique turn I knew I oo

was going to be the 500 meters but that

the 500 meters at 500 meters would have

won then started to tighten if it goes

squeezing keep squeezing followed

squeezing and people locate enrique pace

that is fine, we already have it and when

it arrived five minutes says

wow enrique is doing and when

we get there he becomes silent

deep that tells me that they have

understood 25 minutes later he turned me

saliva to the mouth

I felt the body temperature again

recover the one who recovered and

I said this in the tragedy before the end

what all the doctors say that just

before the total collapse you find yourself

scared but I did not recover

I do not know how he did not ask me and the rest

I turned around and I said gentlemen and what

we have

there are only 75 kilometers left and from

then it is beyond it more

stronger than fear is that stronger

that fear is you with your

day by day with your life those are

impossible goals impossible to

get stronger than fear I’ve

done before yesterday they operated on his daughter

of 7 tumor e stronger than fear anymore

strong that fear that is pure love

stronger than fear is to face

it stays with you when you understand that for

others serve

I do not know if I’m freaking

or I do not know exactly what happens to me but

but but there I am inside video by
