El Iron Horse es la prueba de resistencia h\u00edpica m\u00e1s larga del mundo, que retoma el esp\u00edritu del antiguo Raid Kaliber Al-Andalus, celebrado a principios de los a\u00f1os 2000 en tierras andaluzas. La edici\u00f3n de 2024, programada del 4 al 11 de mayo, tuvo que ser suspendida por motivos t\u00e9cnicos, aunque m\u00e1s de 70 binomios de diversas nacionalidades estaban inscritos. Sin embargo, un grupo de jinetes internacionales decidi\u00f3 seguir adelante y completar el recorrido previsto, honrando el legado andalus\u00ed desde Almer\u00eda hasta la aldea de El Roc\u00edo, atravesando las provincias de Granada, M\u00e1laga, C\u00e1diz y Huelva.<\/p>\n
A pesar de la falta de organizaci\u00f3n oficial, los jinetes adaptaron la velocidad y las estrategias a las condiciones del terreno, sin se\u00f1alizaci\u00f3n ni soporte t\u00e9cnico. Participaron siete jinetes franceses, cuatro de M\u00e1laga y dos de Almer\u00eda, incluyendo a la amazona suiza V\u00e9ronique Curchod con \u201cEmir de Quijas\u201d y el jinete internacional Florencio Agust\u00edn con \u201cFa-Sahel\u201d.<\/p>\n
