The promising Robbiese Anna Marta Carnero won the gold medal and the Italian title with the Atletica Brescia 4×100 relay at the absolute Italian athletics championships, held at the Guidobaldi stadium in Rieti. The young sprinter from Lomellina, despite being still seventeen, therefore in the junior category, returned the trust of her coaches by running in the first fraction with the most mature absolute athletes, giving the baton to Noemi Cavalleri; then the fraction run by Alessia Niotta and finally Gloria Hooper finished by crossing the finish line first with a time of 45 ”24.

Grown up in Robbiese Podistica, Anna Marta Carnero is demonstrating her growth from race to race, so much so that just a few days ago she established her new staff on 100 floors, 10 “83, a time that would have allowed her to reach the absolute final.

The training partner Chiara Melon, registered with both Atletica Brescia and the Fiamme Azzurre, was unable to access the final of the 100 meters. The athlete from Vigevano in qualifying recorded 11 ”79, a time that was worth the ninth position, the first of those excluded from the final. However, Melon was called up in the 4×100 relay of the Italian national team which from Thursday 30 June to Sunday 3 July will be on the track in the Mediterranean Games currently taking place in Oran (Algeria).

The third Pavese present at the absolute Italian championships, Alessandra Prina, was unlucky. The triplist coached by Carla Barbarino made an excellent third jump, which would have allowed her to conquer the bronze medal, but which, for a very short time, was instead considered null. Prina then closed in sixth place with the measure of 12.45 obtained in the first jump.

«A sixth place that satisfies us anyway – comments Barbarino – for Alessandria it was a difficult race, with a headwind. A real shame the jump was canceled, it was from the podium ». –
