In addition, Javier Cruz from Fraga won bronze in shot put.

Elena Guiu, a runner from Velilla de Cinca, won gold and the Spanish Championship title in the 60m sprint at the championship held in Antequera, with a time of 7,40 seconds. Guiu currently competes for Club Valencia Atletismo. This victory marks the first title in the Under-23 category for this athlete from the Bajo/Baix Cinca region. In the final, Elena didn't have a good start from the blocks, but she managed to recover and take the lead at the finish line.

On the other hand, Javi Cruz, currently at Intec Zoiti in Huesca, won the bronze medal in his category. Despite a good start, he finished with three consecutive misses, which caused him to drop in the final standings.

Both athletes trained at the Fraga – Bajo Cinca Athletics Club school and are two of the most outstanding figures to have emerged from this club.
