Three thousand and eight hundred meters swimming.
Portion number one.
Them, the others, already did 400, then 500, then one thousand.
I’m standing on the lake shore, with the eyes lost in the red buoy reflection, tied to the athletes so that the rescue boats can find them, if needed.
When I walk in the evening of Livigno, avoiding the streets of the center, I need only a few steps in the right direction to find myself completely alone, in total peace.
"At the limits, between fairytales and reality, live myths; this is the land where giants roam. They come from when time started and live eternally; incredible beings in stature and strength. Only the gods have the courage to face them. They are close to dreams; only the best can reach them. The Stelvio resides here, imposing and dominating, a king among giants..." that's The Giant, the triathlon race scheduled in Livigno on 1st September 2019, which closes the ICON extreme Triathlon weekend like icing on the cake.
