For me it’s the most beautiful and most important race because of love an achievements. It’s my second home. I’m feeling like I am at home.” he remarked.

For his part, Elisa DESCO – Lavaredo 50Km winner, expressed her joy at taking the win, especially after the injury: " I like this course very much, I ran here in the year of the covid 2021 and 2022 I was registered for the 80th and from there I started an injury which lasted for a whole year last year and today I really wanted to do the 50th again as it was. It was perfect and today the experience counted for sure, knowing the course also helped me a lot because when you know what you are going to meet you can manage your energies better".
