"StraBologna 2013" - Italy

                                   

It is with immense pleasure that we're welcoming Pietro's debut with a B.I.T.T. t-shirt!

Stra-Bologna is a classic run over the centre of one of nicest historical cities in Italy and Pietro chose this venue for his legendary baptism in the name of Borda. Below the detailed report of a heartbreaking experience.

10:10 Schools are about to start.

                                             A new olympic discipline: 11.5 km "stroller".

 

                Sardonic smile before the supreme effort. The supposed distance to be run is 6.8 km....

Last advice from StraBologna staff. B.I.T.T.'s about to run towards another prestigious finish line

The race starts..the beginning reminds more the Way of the Cross, but there'll be time to speed up the pace.

Final Mennea's kind of sprint, leaving far behind two pregnant ladies and dozens of sport strollers.

 

 

 

 

Race is over: our hero is tired but relieved. Initial 6.8 kms turned into 11.5 km due to a technical misunderstanding at the crossroad.

 

 

Bologna is conquered! What's next Mr Pietro? To be continued......
