Trofeo Vanoni
Rory Abernerthy (Ochil HR), James Dunn (Corstorphine AAC) and Ross Gollan (Shettleston Harriers) are heading to Italy this weekend to take part in the 64th edition of Trofeo Vanoni – a three-man relay event.
Each leg is 7.3km with 435m ascent/descent and over 200 teams have entered. The start-lists include teams from England, France, Slovenia, Ireland, Wales and lots of Italian club teams. The women’s event is an individual race this year.
The following weekend Rory, Ross and Scout Adkin (Moorfoot Runners) will be competing in the Nations Cup.
This is a one-off event being held at the Val Bregaglia Trail, Chiavenna, over 19.5km.
The event was organised at a very late stage after the postponement of the World Championships to give international mountain runners an opportunity to compete at the highest level in 2021. Teams from USA and Europe will be attending.
