Newsletter n.7
Hello everybody, some updates about the event:
– continuous races (deca, DD, triple deca) will start 1 September. If some athletes will have problems with swimming and have to stop, they could jump in “Daily” races that will start 5 sept (1×30 and 1×20 and DD split Blore) ,1×10 and deca non stop (starts 21 sept) and 1×5 (starts 26 sept).
This change will be free of charge but any money will be refounded also if other races fee Is cheaper comparse continuous ones. That’s why anyway athletes will in the Village anyway and could sleep and eat paying the original application fee.
We are working hard to have a 50 metres pool with 10 lanes that Is just 3 km from the Park, and could let a Better swim to continuous racers. Final decision we will have in 3 weeks but we are faithful.
Media communication:
I officially ask to all athletes to mention our official social pages when they write a post on Facebook or Instagram.
This could give all the opportunity to have contacts with our sponsors, interviews, and more contacts.

Newsletter n.5
Hello everybody!
we have:
– 13 starters registered for triple deca continuous
– 2 starters for double deca continuous
– 12 starters for deca continuous
No problems with “Daily” racers, that Will start from 5 sept, when all continuous racers will finish to swim.
We have 10 lanes in the pool. I can accept at least 3 athletes, to put 3 swimmers on each lane and to swim in a comfortable way.
3 athletes at all, no matters in wich kind of race (triple d continuous, dd continuous, deca continuous).
In respect to all athletes that have already payed all the starting fee or at leat a “deposit”, in my opinion a “registered” athlete is one that tranferred at least the deposit of 250 euro to reserve a place.
We remember that the deadline to pay all the application fee is 31 march.
After March 31st you have three options:
1) pay the full amount
2) ask for a refund of the 250 euros to leave your place to other athletes “continuous” in waiting list.
3) agree on the payment of the registration, even until the end of August.
But we need to know when we will collect the money from the athletes because we have many things to pay before the race starts.
There is no problem with deferring payment, but we need to have firm dates.
A few more days or in hand changes little, we are flexible in this sense.
If someone needs much more time, this is not a problem to agree with me different deadline of payement.
My goal is to help athletes to come to the race. If they need more time to pay, I want to help anyone.
I am glad to announce that we will offer to all athletes mattress and sleeping bags: all these products are new. After the race, we hope to have them back for next editions!
Be hurry! About 6 months to the race!
