But I think that being over 30 years old (I no longer think regarding) “what if I finish now how do I ‘unpresent’ it? And the cahuín is going to come out here and if we give it some time, people won’t know?’. In the end it was like ‘Ya, there are people ending relationships all the time.

The controversy of athletics in the Pan American Games: “It would have hurt me so much”

Last November, in the middle of the Pan American Games, the athlete Isidora Jimenez was preparing for the 200 meter dash when an open microphone leaked a surprising comment from the CHV sports journalist, Fernando Solabarrieta: “It hasn’t been a hit for a long time. The truth is, let’s be honest, she never gave him much either.”he was heard saying regarding the Chilean.

The unfortunate comment caused great resentment in public opinion, such was the case of Kel Calderón, who did not hesitate to speak out regarding it the following day, when Jiménez together with her 4×400 teammates won the silver medal and they “sent silence” to the criticism.

“New national brand and silver medal. In the photo, Isi Jiménez, ‘the one who never gave much, the one she already was’, how beautiful,” she wrote next to the photo of the medalists. But Kel was one of the few who dared to make a public judgment regarding it.

“I always like to give my opinion, I feel like we are in a position where we have a massive platform. Let’s not pretend that we live in a cloud, we are in a context in which if there is heavy inflation in the country, it must be addressed, I like that real connection with people“, he assured BioBioChile.

To which she added: “When the athletics thing happened, the Isi thing was brilliant (shocking) and as a woman it made me want to give my opinion, and I didn’t even think regarding it that much, It was something super visceral at that moment, but I also felt like that’s okay.”

Regarding his reaction, he assured that he did not intend to “kill” Solabarrieta, but he did intend to set a limit: “As women, it’s not to get dense or spread out, but it is important that when things like this happen we distinguish them at once and raise our hand at the shot”.

In fact, he assured that by putting himself in the athlete’s place, his reaction would not have been so measured: “It happened to me that I mightn’t imagine how horrible and terrible it would have been for me. being in the middle of a competition, where I would be doubting all my abilities and hearing these types of comments – which even though they were not made knowingly that they were going to be made public – It would have hurt my head so much“, he confessed.

However, he assured that his comment was intended to give his support to Jiménez and not to “fun” the sports journalist.
