Alex Tucci protagonist in Verona
Alex Tucci did another feat. The European 24-hour marathon championships were held in San Giovanni Lupatoto, in the province of Verona. Great performances also among the Azzurri who conquer the bronze with Visintini and sign the Italian record of the 24 hours for both men and women.

During the race Alex also experienced moments of difficulty. In particular, he had two moments of crisis. He himself, speaking at the end of the race, reported that – in the middle of the race, for about two hours, he seemed not to be out of it. The crisis gripped him. But then his legs revived and “I started to grind the kilometers again and my willpower set me at my new record“. Thanks to this result both the blue teams (both the female and the male ones) finished in fifth position, establishing the best result ever.
A weekend therefore for Italian athletics, full of optimism and a future full of important and pleasant surprises.
