Miguel Ángel Martínez, a swimmer without limits but with world records

Miguel Ángel Martínez Tajuelo began swimming in 2006 on finishing his studies, and he was sure that his aim was to compete. In 2007 he won his first Spanish championship and in 2008 he competed in his first Paralympic games, in Beijing. At Rio 2016 he will take part in 4 individual categories and 2 team events. His disability, caused by arthrogryposis which he was born with, has never been a hindrance for a track record that includes medals at various world championships.
