Prepare your calendars and mark this date: 7 May 2011, in Banzi (PZ), will host the third edition of the "6 Hours of the Templars - Memorial Vito Frangione, "the ultramarathon / marathon organized by ASD Genzano on the Road, with the support and collaboration of the City and the Pro-Loco Banzi.
After years of hectic and passionate debut, followed by a second edition that has focused on numbers and surprises (including the participation of the athlete felt Englishman Richard Whitehead), the third edition of the "6 Hours of the Templars" will seek to strengthen the quality of two main ingredients: the sport and identity. The latter, in particular, will be enhanced through the wine and food folklore, especially through the care of athletes, the organizers intend to make guests in practice from the small details.
"The ultramarathon is not a discipline for all, or simple and easily understood: it requires training, mindset, character, and especially a place that is suitable to accommodate hardships, joys and stories." - Said Antonio Massaro Councillor for Sports of the Municipality of Banzi, and great supporter, moral and practical, of the event - "All this I learned by observing and participating in the enthusiasm of Genzano on the Road, and that is how, together, we understand how the ' athlete must be our first thought, especially in a crisis period in which the supply of races or sports events tend not to decline, often sacrificing quality. "
But what quality is spoken of Antonio?
"It 's not overlook the obvious, adding that the visitor does not expect: good service and refreshments appropriate timing can not and should not be missed. On this basis, we would like to add something more, something that presents a smile, a good memory, and the desire to return to visit the Basilicata. "
This means, in short, a third edition with a little more, the which could also mean taking a step back because you are not looking large numbers, advertising extreme of big names or the sensational acts. Our "more" want to go in depth, so guests of the "6 Hours of the Templars" will, first of all, friends who wish to visit us and the event will be before a sporting event of resonance, a nice party in which to share a passion and two clear days in a place of soul.
The work begins now, and with them, we hope, word of mouth. Our first act: a new poster, with a line drawn more, easier, and the green wheat fields in spring, a rising sun, and the enthusiasm of people running.
Mark this date: May 7, 2011, for the third edition of the "6 Hours of the Templars - Memorial Vito Frangione, we expect everyone to Banzi.
