Xterra Avigliana







it's the secret place to go !
I loved the race there and specially the gorgous village of Avigliana with the typical Piemontese ambiance.
The course was a taff one; long swim in the lake (no wetsuit), 3laps to bike, 4laps on the run, including a lot of climbing and running up a long stair to the stone monument.
We had two transition, one down on the lake, the other one in the middle of the village. The field was small (100 athlets), just perfect. Nearly everbody finished the race and the pasta party was right after the race, instead of the night before; why not !?
Good food and talks till waiting the last finisher and the prize celebration.
I enjoyed the race and the time very much.
And the funny thing was; I have got a big post (ATTENZIONE BUCHE r) on the prize celebration. The sign means; attention hole (it was on the bike course). They put an extra R on the sign and gave it to me.
Italians are funny,
I really like them.
tante salutti a tutti
