París, 2024 – The excitement is palpable in the air. The hearts of all Spaniards beat to the rhythm of our athletes, but today, at Verdnatura, we feel a special pride. Our dear Roberto Sánchez, the young triathlete we’ve watched grow from a mere child, is about to make history.

A dream sown in the year 2000

It seemed predestined. In the year 2000, when triathlon made its Olympic debut, Roberto, a mere 4-year-old boy, began his journey in the sport, brimming with energy and an overflowing passion for swimming, cycling, and running.

Since then, Verdnatura has witnessed his evolution. We’ve seen how his training intensified, how he overcame each obstacle, and how his dream of competing in the Olympic Games became

More than a sponsorship, a family

To us, Roberto is not just an athlete. He is part of the Verdnatura family. We’ve shared his joys, his frustrations, and celebrated each of his victories. Seeing him today, in the Spanish national team kit, ready to compete against the best triathletes in the world, is a dream come true.

An example to follow

We’ll be keeping a close eye on your performance. You’re in our hearts, and we know you’ll give it your all in the competition. To us, you’re already a winner.

Good luck, champion!
