Paquillo 'the daily sacrifice of the high performace race walker is much like the discipline of the life in prison ... but the sport educates being to you a great person'

Paquillo.com - Paquillo shared thoughts last week with the inmates of Albolote Penitentiary in which they debated about the importance of the education in the sport and life, part of a campaign of sport promotion of the penitentiary centers of Andalusia, organized under the motto 'Education through sport'.

The Olympic runner-up spoke of the discipline of the daily sacrifice of the high performance sportsman, as being similar to the daily sacrifice that marks the discipline of life in prison. Paquillo described the importance of education in sport, for which it is fundamental to have a great teacher, in reference to its former coach Manuel Alcade, 'now I am a good student and perhaps soon he is a good professor'.

The power of the sport practice is that it helps escape from problems was a question very shared by all the prisoners who reached the conclusion that 'the sport educates being to you a great person'.

Paqillo.com has been updated, including some great shots of the Athens Olympic Games 20km.
