The Comeliano and the Agordino were the best in Belluno yesterday in the lagoon.

«I’m really happy», begins De Benedet, who is in his ninth career marathon and has a time of 2h58’15 ”, set in Amsterdam in 2017, as his best performance. «Venice is a tough marathon, with leg-breaking bridges in the end. Today, moreover, there were also long stretches with headwinds. I went a little above my personal but that’s okay: I am very satisfied with my debut at the Venice marathon and with my debut in Italy: so far, in fact, I had always run marathons abroad ».

Just over 3 hours, yesterday, was Erwin Ronchi’s timing: the athlete from Agordino, registered with the Pordenone Atletica Edilmarket Sandrin, crossed the finish line in 3h03’48 “(3h03’45” real time), a time that earned him 89th overall position, 83rd man and 12th Sm40.

“In September I competed in the Vienna marathon, finishing in 2h56 ‘but I was not happy” explains Ronchi who has about twenty races on 42.195 kilometers and a time of 2h47’, set in Verona a few years ago, as personal best . «Here in Venice I was fine until around the thirtieth kilometer, then I had to pull the oars in the boat: two marathons at such a short distance are not easy to manage. However, I closed in 3h03 ‘, nothing is thrown away “, Erwin says smiling again, concluding:” As a route Venice is the most beautiful marathon: the passages alongside the Brenta and those in the city are something unique “.
