Heartily “welcome” to all those who are reading these pages!

 

This web site is the collection of the personal experiences I lived in the course of some ultramarathon. I emphasize the term “experience”, as I think that the motivation in order to face these tests is the desire of living new feelings, hardly found in the daily life. The contest loses therefore a lot of the competitive spirit towards the others, in order to become a challenge with oneself, a way to confront with an apparently unattainable goal in order to discover the hidden resources that are necessary to its attainment. It is therefore necessary to bind together physical endurance with psychical determination in order to overcome the obstacles produced by the distance (or by our mind). Reaching the goal becomes then the realization of a dream, the discovery that what we thought were our limits have moved a little further.

 

Note: it is hard for me to write in english! Little by little I'll try to add new pages. Thanks for your patience!
