Almost in a blink of an eye and tickets were all gone. Nordic sports passionates literally assaulted the registration area on the Marcialonga official web-page, yesterday afternoon, and Italy’s most popular ski-marathon amongst the Italian Dolomites will officially and once again be a sport show for thousands on 31 January, 2016.
It all happened in 9 minutes, a new record time, 60 seconds less than last year, and the 7.500 athletes entry limit to the Italian super popular winter event was reached. ‘We are all very happy and proud that thousands of people once again showed great love for our event’, claimed Marcialonga CEO Gloria Trettel yesterday, ‘and they are not only from the country, we collected entries from Scandinavia, Russia, Czech Republic, Austria and even Spain.’
The 2016 Marcialonga, the 43rd running ever, will run along the two classic courses through the alpine valleys of Fiemme and Fassa, 70k in classic technique from Moena to Cavalese and 45k CT from Moena to Predazzo. Last January’s events were won by XC superstar Tord Asle Gjerdalen of Norway and Austria’s Katerina Smutna, while Italian Orlandi and Pellegrini grabbed the so-called Light title.
Around 9.000 skiers of all nationalities and ages took part in last winter’s events, namely the Sunday’s competition, Minimarcialonga for kids, Marcialonga Young and Stars plus the Marcialonga Story vintage promo event that the OC already scheduled during the last weekend of January 2016. Entries to the Story event are already open on www.marcialonga.it.
In the meantime, the clock to the 13th Marcialonga Running Coop race keeps ticking, entries are open and runners of all sorts are more than welcome to be part of the Marcialonga family next 6 September.
Info: www.marcialonga.it plus Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
