Fernando Alvarez didn’t begin his 200-meter breaststroke on the FINA World Masters Championships in Budapest this weekend till effectively after the remainder of the rivals started, and it was a robust sight to behold.
The Spanish swimmer remained on the platform by design as he honored the victims of Thursday’s lethal Barcelona terrorist assault, which left 15 folks lifeless, with a second of silence.
His hope was for a second of silence to be held earlier than the race, as he described to El Espanol, however when that plan by no means got here to fruition, he honored the victims with a solo tribute.
