TOUR DE SKI. Many former World Cup athletes at the start of Rampa con i Campioni, the climb to Alpe Cermis executed by the amateurs of the cross country.
The "Campione" Odd-Bjorn Hjelmest
Petra Majdic, Katerina Neumannova, Fulvio Valbusa, Odd-Bjorn Hjelmest and others led about 180 skiers uphill: they were the first who climbed up the hard last part at Alpe Cermis. Real forerunners for the World Cup athletes who are facing the Final Climb immediately after midday.
Jurg Capol commented the whole race, so the public could listen to his deep breathing and they could taste the great fatigue and the incredible effort the athletes must cope with.
The winner of Rampa dei Campioni is Odd-Bjorn Hjelmeset, followed by Alfio Di Gregorio (ITA) and Bruno Debertolis (ITA).
The "Campionessa" Lada Nesterenko
The first lady is Lada Nesterenko (UKR), the silver medal goes to Clara Bettega (ITA) and the bronze medal goes to Katerina Neumannova (CZE).
Whoever wins this challenge is a "Campione"... so congratulations to all participants!
