The race recovers the support of the people of Palencia and returns that support in the form of a sporting spectacle.
In Tazacorte to the applause of the fans Fran Anguita (3h.44:25) made his way to become the winner of the Transvulcania adidas Terrex 2024 Marathon. Second was Peter Frano (3h.48:08) and third on the podium was Milly Brito (3h.48.50).
The women's race was a tough one. Gemma's sporting sacrifice earned her the first place with a time of 4h.35:01 ahead of Inés Astraín (4h.38:35) and Kim Schreiber (4h.44:38) who closed the first three places.
"Beyond the results and the winners, I think that in this edition there is a winner, which is the island of La Palma. To see how the spirit of Transvulcania has been reactivated in the people of La Palma is priceless and the example is what has been experienced at the arrival of the Marathon to its original place in Puerto de Tazacorte. I sincerely believe that this edition of the Transvulcania has brought back the excitement to participants, public and organisers", said the president of the Cabildo Insular de La Palma, Sergio Rodríguez, at the end of the race.
