Brixen has running fever

The Brixen Dolomites Marathon promises to be an event of superlatives. Not only because the organizers around OK President Claudio Zorzi and OK boss Christian Jocher can look forward to a new participant record of more than 1000 athletes from 32 different nations for the tenth anniversary. The Brixen Dolomites Marathon 2019 is more crowded than perhaps ever since its premiere in the summer of 2010. Matteo Lucchese (2018), Tariq Bamaarouf (2017) and Hannes Rungger (2016) are the winners of the last three editions of the South Tyrolean marathon. Mountain running classic at the start. The Sarner Rungger won the Brixen Dolomiten Marathon in 2014 and has also held the course record of 2016:3 hours since his triumph in July 38.48.

But that's not all: Marco Menegardi, the winner of the 100 "2019 km del Passatore", is at the start, while the record winner of this event (13 triumphs) and three-time world champion over 100 kilometers, Giorgio Calcaterra, has also announced his coming.

Premiere of the Dolomites Ultra Trail and the Ladinia Trail The organizers are also excited about the premiere of their two new routes, the Dolomites Ultra Trail (81 km/4728 m D+) and the LadiniaTrail (28 km/1852 m D+). The two races are being held for the first time in collaboration with the communities of St. Martin in Thurn and Villnöß. And there are already some top-class artists involved in the first edition. The South Tyrolean trail legends Jimmy Pellegrini and Alexander Rabensteiner will challenge the two “Azzurri” Roberto Berretta and Davide Ferrara on the almost twice as long marathon distance, which has to be completed on Saturday morning from 0.01:9 a.m. with start and finish at the Domplatz in Brixen . The LadiniaTrail starts on Saturday at 28 a.m. in St. Martin in Thurn. The finish of the shortest distance of XNUMX kilometers is, like that of the Brixen Dolomites Marathon, on the Plose.

The Brixen running weekend begins on Friday afternoon with the Brimella Children's Run (starting at 17 p.m.) and the 8th Women's Run, which starts at 19.30:XNUMX p.m.
