like Yulimar Rojas

A little more than a decade ago, there was talk in Venezuela of a golden generation, measured by the country's sports performance during the years of the boom in oil revenues.
It was at that time that Yulimar Rojas, a very tall girl who was initially interested in volleyball, arrived at the sports center where Velasquez found that he could put her to shine in athletics. Then came the competitive trips to which he accompanied her: the United States, Canada, Peru, Mexico, Guatemala, Chile, the Pan American Games, the South American Games, national and Bolivarianos championships. He was always by her side.
