Jaime Tapia, solo from Mexico



Jaime Tapia is all the way from Mexico to compete in the WTG in Bangkok. At the Opening Ceremonies, the sole Mexican competitor entered the stadium proudly representing his country. Also earlier that day, Tapia received a silver medal for the 5K Men's Road Race. Tapia is also looking forward to competing in the track & field events. Here, at the track, Tapia is envisioning the upcoming competition.

Good luck to Jaime and to all athletes participating in the World Tranplant Games! The Games demonstrate the success of organ donation - how it has provided these recipients a second chance at life....and a healthy and active one, at that!
