When the fearsome Toshikazu, Samurai without Katana, Yamanishi attacked, one, two, three times, and to do it he ran, he simultaneously lifted the two feet of the ground, there was Paul McGrath plethoric, his shadow sometimes, his touches so many many others, responding, chopping him, a fly that did not leave him quiet. And when Yamanishi, the worldwide distance of distance (1h 16m 10s) received his third warning and was condemned to stand three minutes in the fridge, the Catalan marcher, debuting in a World Cup at 23, saw the open sky defined. He forgot the sticky Chinese Zhaozhao Wang, forgot about fear and, bold, accelerated towards the victory that awaited him in the goal of the Olympic stadium, once the dark tunnel was crossed in light, like all the champions. They were four kilometers. kilometers. The enthusiasm, the desire, his own character, his youth, made him calculate his strength badly. Two kilometers later, as emerged from nowhere, the Green Giant Caio Bonfim, which was second in the 35 kilometers, green as the Brazilian uniform, advanced as an exhalation in a supply. And behind him, Chinese Wang, renovated, also surpassed the Catalan. On the track, between the revelry and enthusiasm of 30,000 spectators, the positions were maintained. Bonfim won (1h 18m 35s). The silver went to Wang (1h 18m 43s), and the bronze in its debut to the so young McGrath (1h 18m 45s) is the third medal of the Spanish athletics tokyo, a few hours after the second of María Pérez.

A march that is practiced in several nuclei. If María Pérez arrives from Guadix, where her coach, Jacinto Garzón, and Álvaro Martín exploded with the group of José Antonio Carrillo in Cieza (Murcia), McGrath arrives from Cornellà, the group he believes led by Alejandro Aragonese.
