The accomplished ultramarathon runner and Oxyburn Ambassador finished second in the women’s race—and tenth overall—in the second edition of the 6 Ore con l’Abbraccio in Arluno, Milan.

ARLUNO – 63 kilometers and 865 meters: this is the distance covered on Saturday, February 26, 2017, by Ilaria Fossati, the top ultramarathon runner and Oxyburn Ambassador, during the second edition of the “6 Ore con l’Abbraccio” race held at Cascina Coglianasca in Arluno, Milan. With this distance, Ilaria placed second in the women’s race, trailing only Ilaria Marchesi, who won by less than 2k, and finished tenth overall, less than 10k behind the overall winner, Alessandro Bruzzi, who covered 73 kilometers and 615 meters.

Despite the sunny but cool day, Ilaria ran her race wearing, as usual, Oxyburn’s graduated compression underwear, which is ideal for long races where you have to wear the same clothing for many hours:the excellent breathability of the fabrics produced by the Brescia-based company keeps the skin dry, while also providing a massaging effect and muscle support.
