Big names for the Gsiesertal Run

The big star of this year's “Gsieser” is once again the two-time Olympic champion and defending champion Giorgio Di Centa. But the list of top runners is long. From the Czechs Siri Rocker and Stanislav Řezáč to the Austrian Thomas Steurer, who won in Casies in 2009. The favorites also include the two Germans Eric Thomas and Andy Kühne and the Italians Alan Martinelli and Fabio Clementi.

Dietmar Nöckler and Debora Agreiter at the start From a South Tyrolean perspective, one can be excited about Dietmar Nöckler. The man from Bruneck celebrated his first World Cup victory this year with Federico Pellegrino. Fulvio Scola and Mattia Pellegrin are also World Cup proven. Trentino's Bruno Debertolis - multiple winner in Gsies - was the best Azzurro at the Marcialonga this year. Other well-known professionals include Simone Paredi, Mirco Bertolina, Claudio Muller, Paolo Fanton and Stefano Gardener.

For women, there are three previous winners among those registered: Natalia Zernova (42 km skating), local hero Barbara Felderer (30 km classic) and Renate Forster (42 km classic). The Czech Katerina Smutna won the Marcialonga last year and came second this year. Adela Boudikova was the fastest in Casies two years ago. South Tyrol's hopes rest on Debora Agreiter from Val Badia. Debora Roncari, Erica Antonio, Sara Pellegrini, the Germans Jessica Müller and Theresa Eichhorn and the Finnish Eva Nurmi could also end up at the top. More top runners are announced for the next few days. The “Gsieser” is particularly attractive for top Italian runners because the men’s skating marathon and the women’s 30 km skating race are part of the Italian Cup. In total, the participants come from 33 nations. This year the Gsiesertal run is once again part of the Euroloppet racing series, the Italian Ranking and the Master Tour. On Saturday the classic races over 30 and 42 km as well as the Mini-Gsieser are on the program. There are four age groups: U18, U16, U14, U12. The skating races over 30 and 42 km follow on Sunday. Rai Sport 1 shows the pictures from the Gsiesertal run on Friday, February 26th from 15.15:16.15 p.m. to XNUMX:XNUMX p.m.
