This year’s Triathlon of Bardolino, which in 2016 will welcome 2,000 triathletes thanks to the interesting addition of a second floor in the transition area, is seeing increasing numbers of registered athletes.
Taking place on Saturday 18 June 2016 in Bardolino, Lake Garda, Italy, the 33rd International Triathlon Città di Bardolino will start at 12:30 CET at Lido Cornicello and will finish at the adjacent park in Villa Carrara.
Registrations for the event this June are already up 40% on 2015. To celebrate an expected bumper year for the event, and to encourage further registrations, the organizing team, directed by Dante Armanini, has extended the deadline for early bird registration. Athletes can now continue to enter the event for the reduced price of €70 Euros up until 23:59 CET on Sunday 10 April.
The competition is organised by the A.S.D. G.S. Bardolino sport team with the support of event patron Dante Armanini and with the technical collaboration of Bardolino sport clubs and neighbouring municipalities, under the auspices of the Italian Triathlon Federation.
The event will be held over the Olympic distance, with a 1.5K swim, 40K bike and 10K run. Athletes will be divided into start waves depending on their Italian national ranking score.
One figure that has surprised, and encouraged the event organizers, is that currently, among registered athletes at the 2016 Bardolino Triathlon, 50% have not competed in the event previously.
Also seen as valuable to the success of this year’s event is the contribution of the various partners of the Bardolino International Triathlon. Sponsors and event partners include: Lamberti, Enervit, Purple Oil, Canyon, Zerowind, Europlan, Top Training, Parc Hotels Italy, Zuegg and Avis.
