In the end, among so many Lapps, Trentino wins again. No, it’s not a joke! In Levi, Finland, the Marcialonga of Fiemme and Fassa- that saw its 46^th edition taking place last January- was elected best ski-marathon for the second consecutive year. The prestigious price of Visma Ski Classics includes many long-distance cross-country ski competitions from all over the world. “We are very satisfied with our result, but we want to win next year too! That is our aim. Everyone has to believe in this concept and develop it” this is what the ambitious committee president, Angelo Corradini, states while focusing on an interesting detail: “Arriving before some of the biggest competitions in this field was not easy seen our conditions this year”.

Yes, because the title for the best competition in the circuit was obtained in 2018 during a beautiful sunny day, with snow covering the landscape of Fiemme and Fassa; on the contrary the title in 2019 was obtained in a not very lucky edition, characterized by difficult weather conditions and by the damages along the track caused by the storm that hit Trentino. This makes the title even more significant for the committee.

Athletes, media, workers have awarded Marcialonga, taking into account not only the sport criteria but also hosting and logistic aspects, organization and much more: “ Receiving the award this way acquires a really particular meaning for us- states Angelo Corradini- it is as if Finns came to Italy and got a soccer prize!”

Surprising second place for the Czech Jizerskà, which precedes some of the better-known races such as Vasaloppet and Birkebeinerrennet.

A special thank from our president Angelo Corradini always goes to everyone that makes the race possible, to the volunteers that work before, during and after the race and that engage taking care of the landscape making it perfect in order to welcome tourist and skiers in the best way “We do not do anything on our own, we work together, from the littlest to the most important member, as one”.

The next edition of Marcialonga of Fiemme and Fassa will be the 47^th and will take place on the 26^th of January 2020, meanwhile the Organizing Committee will be engaged in organizing the Marcialonga Cycling Craft of the 2^nd of June and the Marcialonga Running Coop of the 1^st of September.

The best long-distance ski competition- Norse field for excellence- is once again Marcialonga, made in Italy, excellence which is an example for all the competitions all over the world.
