平塔多从小就怀揣着奥运冠军的梦想,深受本国竞走名将杰弗逊·佩雷斯(1996年亚特兰大奥运会20公里竞走冠军)的影响。9岁时,他便和兄弟大卫一起踏上了田径之路。

母亲深知他的付出与努力,坚信他终能实现梦想:“我们一直怀抱这样的梦想,我坚信总有一天我的儿子会实现这个梦想,因为我知道他付出的牺牲和努力,他日复一日地训练,坚持不懈,兢兢业业,在奋斗途中不言放弃。”他的儿子尼古拉斯·平塔多与他一样热爱运动,尼古拉斯紧张地看着父亲从众多竞走运动员中脱颖而出,为父亲感到骄傲,并表示父亲是他的榜样,激励着他永不放弃。

获得女子双向飞碟冠军的弗朗西斯卡·克罗韦托·查迪德成为智利历史上第一位获得奥运冠军的女性运动员,这枚金牌不仅是智利在巴黎奥运会上的首金,还是智利16年来获得的第一枚奥运奖牌。
她说:“我仍然不相信。我当时太专注了,试图打中每一个目标。我想我明天就会意识到发生了什么。这将永远留在我和祖国的心中。”
