In Survivor Race, participants can choose from three different distances and compete either individually or in a group.

Either you or a group of ten or more people can take part. The latter option offers a 10% registration discount to each participant.

Regardless of whether you decide to join a group or not, each registration is completed separately. Everyone just needs to sign up for the same distance and departure time in order to travel together.

Why take part?

The race organisers say that “Survivor means waking up in the morning and feeling capable of overcoming all the obstacles we encounter every day, whether alone, as a couple, with friends, or family.” Therefore, this event provides a way for personal growth and friendship in addition to being an enriching experience.

Jesús JG, also known as Suso, is suspected of killing Nadia, his ex-partner’s adopted 5-year-old daughter, in a Murcia home. He also called his ex-girlfriend and his own mother.

It was the mother of the suspect who found the dead body. Later, she said that her son had contacted her while she was out at a pub with two friends, asking her to come over to the apartment since the girl was “sleeping” and he needed to go so she wouldn’t be left alone. When his mum got home after listening to her son, she discovered the girl in the bedroom “foaming at the mouth,” albeit still alive. Then she dialled 911.

When paramedics arrived on the scene in a 061 ambulance, they made numerous unsuccessful attempts to resuscitate the girl. The young girl passed away in one of the house’s bedrooms. Her remains were left there until shortly after 9:30 p.m., at which point permission was granted to take them out and deliver them to the Murcia Institute of Forensic Medicine.

Suso posted pictures of himself putting the girl on his shoulders while they play or eat together on social media, giving the impression that they are father and daughter. Hours after the crime, the person was taken into custody in Torrevieja.

Drug-related issues

Police were also informed by the suspect’s mother that her son had struggled with drug addiction for many years.

Along with a dozen close friends, Suso’s ex-partner Ramona participated in the minute of silence outside Murcia City Hall in remembrance of Nadia, whom she had reared and had custody of. Isabel, Ramona’s cousin and the biological mother of tiny Nadia, was also outside the hall’s doors.

16 people have been arrested by Spain’s National Police for using cryptocurrency to buy access to a child pornography website on the dark web.

38 nations have participated in this global investigation, which is being directed by Germany and coordinated by Europol. As a result, 1,393 people have been identified, and 79 people have been arrested. Some of the individuals who were arrested also mistreated children. According to a statement from the National Police, the investigation is still ongoing.

Alicante, Almeria, Barcelona, Jaen, Las Palmas, La Rioja, Madrid, Malaga, Murcia, Orense, Seville, Tarragona, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Valencia, and Zaragoza are among the Spanish cities where arrests have been made.

By hiding users’ identities and functioning as a social network, the dark web—particularly the platform under investigation within the TOR network—made it possible to buy and share illegal content.

With 91,000 videos and almost two million members, it was expanding at a rate of three videos every hour. While full films had to be paid for with cryptocurrency, initial access was free. Additionally, there were rewards for rating already-existing content or creating original stuff.

Despite the anonymity of cryptocurrency, German authorities were able to identify the buyers by cracking into the server and tracking down the payments. One person in Spain uploaded a video, and 17 others had bought content.

The National Police claim that people who purchase the content have a higher level of criminal dedication and sophisticated search techniques for illicit materials.

One of those detained in Spain was a student of computer technology who served as a distributor and had access to other platforms of a similar nature.

A detained individual in Alicante was also discovered to be a drug trafficker in possession of 700 ecstasy pills and €42,000 in cash. Several people who were arrested in Barcelona and Madrid had evidence of payment and child pornography. A suspect in Malaga confessed to the crime. A dentist in Murcia used a USB flash drive to save files.

Devices holding illegal material and proof of purchase were discovered in Almería, Orense, Seville, Tarragona, Tenerife, and Zaragoza, leading to additional arrests. One suspect had left Valencia for Paris. Another suspect in Jaén was looked into but not taken into custody. 39 minors were granted protection, and almost 3,000 electronic devices were seized globally.
