Tecnica title sponsor of the Trail of Heroes

For the second year in a row, Tecnica is the title sponsor of the Trail of Heroes, supporting the classic event that will run along the main ridges of the Grappa Massif, retracing where possible the trenches of the First World War and the Alta Via degli Eroi. The name of the event is in fact a tribute to the protagonists of the Great War, for an event that offers a unique and authentic combination of sport and history, including the evocative passage at the Shrine of Cima Grappa, where lie the remains of over twenty thousand soldiers who died on these mountains.

“We are happy and proud to be at the side of Trail degli Eroi also this year – explains Marco Aliprandi, marketing manager Blizzard-Tecnica – Last year, despite a complicated global situation, we wanted to make our support to the community of trail runners through the sponsorship of Trail degli Eroi. We could not therefore miss this edition, in which we finally return to running at full capacity. We are sure that the resumption of competitive activities is good news for all fans who love the thrill of the bib”.

The Trail of Heroes is confirmed as a competition of primary importance in the Italian panorama. Not only has it been confirmed as a qualifying race for the UTMB (3 points for the Trail and Ultra, 1 point for the Sky) but it has also been selected as a finishing competition for the Italian National Trail Running team in view of the trail world championships next November in Chiang Mai, Thailand.

“Trail running enthusiasts will be able to find us not only on the flags and banners of Trail degli Eroi, but also with a stand in the competition village – continues Marco Aliprandi – It will be an opportunity to get to know our Origin LD shoe dedicated to long distances, with the exclusive CAS Custom Adaptive Shape system that allows you to customize the fit in store in just 15 minutes, a solution derived from Tecnica’s experience in the ski boot sector.”
