Not even this year\u20142020\u2014will manage to make us feel defeated. It has heightened our awareness of just how important it is <strong>to live out our passions to the fullest<\/strong>, such as my passion for <strong>trail running<\/strong>. Through them, <strong>we become better people<\/strong> and, above all, we achieve goals that are no less important\u2014even without competing.   <\/p>\n<p>During this unusual competitive season, I pinned my race number to my jersey only once, for a relay race\u2014a format that was completely new to me. All this forced downtime has made me think back often to my first 100km race. It\u2019s hard to describe the emotions I experienced from start to finish on a Balearic island: from the pride of being in the lead group to the slump at the 60th km, from managing such a tough challenge to the tears at the finish line.  <\/p>\n<p>Thanks to<strong> trail running<\/strong>, I\u2019ve combined<strong>my love of running<\/strong> with my love of <strong>the woods and mountains<\/strong>, where I train daily to push the limits of my body and mind. When you\u2019re pushing your legs for hours on end during training or a race, wearing clothing that helps alleviate fatigue is a huge help. I\u2019ve always found Oxyburn\u2019s technical base layers to be a great benefit for my muscles, both during activity and during recovery.  <\/p>\n<p>Every time I run, I feel transported into a state of indescribable joy and euphoria, though it\u2019s also tinged with moments of pain, such as <strong>coming across nature that\u2019s been defaced<\/strong>. That\u2019s why, whenever I can, I carry a backpack to collect litter and trash I find along the trails. We are the best <strong>ambassadors for the beauty of our planet<\/strong>; we must also be the first to take care of it.  <\/p>\n<p>In 2021, I dream of returning to ultra-trail running, but even more than that, I hope to provide tangible help through running to my Piedmont valleys, which were severely hit by the flood. It\u2019s an ambitious project that I hope to bring to fruition. Because <strong>we can all strive toward a goal<\/strong> without necessarily having to pin a race bib to our shirts.  <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px;\"><em>by Vincenzo La Montagna<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7989\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oxyburn.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/img-7616.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\">   <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7988\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oxyburn.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"538\" height=\"603\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7987\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oxyburn.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image1-626x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"626\" height=\"1024\"><\/p>\n<p>   <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7986\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oxyburn.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image0-756x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"756\" height=\"1024\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Proving to yourself that you can run for hours, endure fatigue, and turn it into energy is one of the&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":71312,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1869],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-71310","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-athletes"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
