The Joy of Swimming

Hace tres años, después de 23 horas con 15 minutos de nado —88 kilómetros recorridos—, y a solo 4 kilómetros de la costa inglesa, tuve que concluir mi intento de cruce doble del canal de la Mancha. Durante todo el recorrido me había sentido muy mal, con vómito desde la segunda hora e hipotermia al final. No le veía sentido alguno a lo que había sucedido, y fue hasta que ingresé a un hospital en París que supe que tenía una obstrucción biliar que había avanzado a una pancreatitis. Una vez recuperado, volví a trazar la ruta para mi siguiente intento. Como suele suceder en el canal de la

He describes his colorful, goal-setting life within the dramatic backdrop of becoming the oldest person in history to achieve the Oceans Seven.

Brazada Abrazada Foundation

Brazada Abrazada is a nonprofit project that provides children with a comprehensive education through swimming lessons and other aquatic activities. The program therefore focuses on the overall development of the child and the promotion of healthy lifestyles.

La idea surgió a partir de una visita que Antonio hizo al internado Coronel J. Cruz Gálvez para narrar a los niños sus aventuras en los Siete Mares. Tras interactuar con ellos y escucharlos, se planteó un nuevo reto: brindar a los pequeños la experiencia de aprender a nadar y, además, formarlos como seres humanos vinculados a su comunidad.

Thanks to the support of friends and family, the Secretary of Public Education of the state of Sonora, the Union of Physical Education Teachers, and the boarding school's management and staff, the project became a reality.

Swimming lessons take place at the CUM Olympic pool in Hermosillo, Sonora. One of the main achievements has been, of course, teaching the children to swim. However, participating in aquatic activities in an educational context has also enabled the kids to acquire knowledge through movement, establish social relationships, and develop cognitive and emotional skills.

During the 2019-2020 academic year, more schools were added to the program and, currently, more than 1,000 children participate in it. Year after year we expect this number to grow. The goal for 2025 is to contribute to the comprehensive education of more than 10,000 children in schools across the country.
