Known worldwide for its marathons and road races, Valencia made its debut on the <em>World Athletics Indoor Tour<\/em> calendar with a meeting that brought together 150 athletes from 22 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, we recap how the event was organised, the standout results, and what this milestone means for the future of Spanish athletics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A meeting with international ambition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Organised by SD&nbsp;Correcaminos and the Trinidad Alfonso Foundation, the Valencia GP was created with the clear ambition of becoming a global reference in indoor competition. The day began with development races for younger categories, and from 18:25 onwards the international programme delivered a packed schedule: 60&nbsp;m sprint, 60&nbsp;m hurdles, 800&nbsp;m, 1,500&nbsp;m, 3,000&nbsp;m, long jump, triple jump and pole vault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The organisers\u2019 goal is simple: to make Valencia a must-stop for athletes around the world during the indoor season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the pre-event press conference, Spain\u2019s headline athletes \u2014<strong>Quique&nbsp;Llopis<\/strong>, <strong>Adri\u00e1n&nbsp;Ben<\/strong>, <strong>Ja\u00ebl-Sakura&nbsp;Bestu\u00e9<\/strong> and <strong>Roc\u00edo&nbsp;Arroyo<\/strong>\u2014 shared their excitement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Llopis said he felt extremely confident in his preparation, aiming to get closer to the Spanish record in the 60&nbsp;m hurdles. Bestu\u00e9, one of Europe\u2019s fastest sprinters, arrived looking to improve on her 7.18&nbsp;s personal best. Middle-distance runner Adri\u00e1n&nbsp;Ben came straight from a training camp in South Africa with hopes of breaking 3:37 over 1,500&nbsp;m, while Arroyo dreamed of securing the qualifying standard for the World Championships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All signs pointed to a spectacular evening \u2014 and the meeting delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key results and standout moments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>More than 2,000 spectators filled the stands of the Luis&nbsp;Puig arena, and the meeting produced several memorable performances. These were the most celebrated events of the night:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n  \n  <li><strong>Men\u2019s 60&nbsp;m hurdles:<\/strong> local hero <strong>Quique&nbsp;Llopis<\/strong> thrilled the crowd with 7.53&nbsp;s.
