Last year, Perez established a daily exercise routine for himself with the aim of remaining on his feet for many consecutive hours, enlisting the help of a physical therapist, a psychologist, a nutritionist and a masseuse.
Part of the sliced hams will be donated to a local non-governmental organisation, while the rest was distributed free to the people of the city.
