Absolute swimming, Galossi shines in the 800s: “Champion at 16, what a thrill”

The Roman boy improved his personal by over three seconds, stopping at 7 ”46’28:“ I didn’t imagine swimming in this time since the water was a bit hot … ”. ok Burdisso in 200 butterfly, Miressi in 100 sl, Pilate in 50 breaststroke

Boiling temperatures, around 40 degrees, with the water of the Ostia swimming pool not very popular with swimmers. Who all complain: “It is impossible to make decent times like this”. Instead the turning point in the afternoon is the delivery of the baby Lorenzo Galossi (16 years old in May), 3 golds (400-800 and 4 × 200), a silver (200 sl) and a bronze (4 × 100 sl) in the last race won at the recent European Junior Championships in Otopeni, a shower of medals that made him also receive the compliments of King Gregorio Paltrinieri: today he dominated the 800 in 7’46 “28, improving his personal by three and a half seconds that was already a record Italian Juniores. Lorenzo, a Roman from Mentana, trained at the Aniene by Christian Minotti, a former 1500s player, is the last golden man in Italian swimming, from 200 to 800 he can mark the future. “I did not imagine swimming in this time since the water was a bit hot – he says -, it is a great thrill to be an Italian champion at 16 even if Detti and Paltrinieri were missing. I hope to do some 400 quality styles at the European Championships together with them ”.

Gasps

Before Galossi the second day of the Absolutes did not have any particular jolts, “ruined” also by the absences of Simona Quadarella in the 800s (in the 1500s on Tuesday, despite winning them, she was not happy) and Ilaria Cusinato, out in the 400 medley. Her technician Matteo Giunta preferred to direct her to tomorrow’s 200 butterfly where she will have to win her individual access for the Rome event.

Among the big names, title for Federico Burdisso in the 200 butterfly who loses a bit of polish in the final but wins in 1’55 “45 in front of Giacomo Carini (1’56” 96), only fifth Alberto Razzetti (1’57 “57 ). Federica Toma wins the 100 backstroke (1’00 ”10) and makes an encore after yesterday’s success in the 50 backstrokes. Alessandro Miressi is first in the 100 style in 48 ”41, as is Benedetta Pilato in the 50 breaststroke (30” 03), the specialty that brought her to the fore with the world record still held (29 ”30). The Taranto rider ruled Arianna Castiglioni, second in 30 ”68, and Lisa Angiolini, third in 30” 84. However, the day saw the conquest of another five passes for the European Championships: Ilaria Bianchi in the 100 butterfly, Sara Franceschi in the 400 medley, Pier Andrea Matteazzi in the 400 medley, Lisa Angiolini in the 50 breaststroke and Martina Rita Caramignoli in the 800 freestyle.

Lipstick Book

The book is divided into eight parts, different from each other but complementary, where I also made use of the collaboration of the athletes and the use of videos thanks to QR code technology ”.
