📋 Tender Overview
The president of the Peruvian Sports Institute (IPD), Guido Flores Marchan, held an important meeting with our champion Gladys Tejeda, who recently won a bronze medal in the women's marathon at the Santiago 2023 Pan American Games.
Our outstanding marathon runner received a diploma of honor and congratulations for her notable participation in Santiago. This meeting was conducive to renew the IPD's commitment to work in a coordinated manner with athletes in their preparation for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
During the meeting, actions were agreed to improve the training conditions of athletes at the local and international level.
In that sense, they talked about the reactivation of the Marathon Runners Program, the Paris 2024 Special Program, the improvement of the Huancayo High Performance Center (CAR) and the project of a new athletic track in Oxapampa, which meets the climate and altitude conditions for the long-distance runner training.
It should be noted that Gladys is a member of the Athlete Support Program (PAD) and the Santiago 2023 Prioritized Program, both of which contribute to her preparation plan for international competitions.
