January 29 from 2013 - 00: 01

The athlete of CA Llebeig Xàbia, Nasio Cardona won in his Veterans category, the Sierra Nevada mountain race, in Granada. The Xàbia athlete faced one of those infernal tests on Saturday afternoon and evening, which only some "crazy" extreme sports dare to do.

A career that he spent on the snowy slopes of this mountain mythical designed for skiers but adapted for runners. To do these had to wear the proper clothing: Chains in the (fully home in the case of Nasio), front, warm clothing adapted to the frigid temperatures, etc. slippers

Nasio passed out a real odyssey was placed in the fifth position, but the 500 meters dropped her chain a foot. He had tangled chain, with the gloves impossible to remove the mess. It is the subject in the ankle and started again.

The race continued and stood in second place, but lost sight of the first being in a group with 4 more participants. In the last stretch of climb, javiense still with his head.

Nasio start the descent in the company of other athletes 2 stomping the heel to prevent slipping. The floor was very bad, with ice sheets so the Javea decided to sit down. It was imitated by other fellow race.

When only a 100m detracted unevenness, more gentle descent to 700 goal, I saw he was not wearing lit the front, so he had to be guided by the only light of the full moon itself.

He managed to reach the goal entering the third place in the overall standings, the first in Veterans with a time of time 1, 13 11.700 minutes to cover the meters, up to 2.800 meters. A very hard test available to few, but again Nasio Cardona, was brilliant.
