The Italian Meucci won the EM-Marathon 2014 in Zurich! Forty-two kilometers of awesome running (2:11:08) through the city of Zürich. The athletes ran four rounds of a approx. 10 km across the Limmat river, along the lake of Zurich and above to ETH and University acropolis.
Waiting for the runners at the last round at time 1:48:06: Meucci is first on the Münster bridge of Zürich !!!
Meucci-meucci-meucci! Running by come-una-saetta he is flying towards victory, behind him the ex-first runner for the previous 3 rounds.
So glad I witnessed Italy winning this medal here in Zurich. Grazie Meucci and thanks all the runners for the wonderful show across the city today! Following a small photo summary of the day:
First round from the Limmat towards Central and up to Kunsthause.
Second round at the bend from Central up to Kunstahause: Meucci is there still in the group!
Waiting for the third round along the Limmat.
Flying runners towards the end of the fourth round. All pictures shot with D800 1/2000 sec, f/5.6, SB-700 and Nikon 70-200. Another good opportunity to test my new flash. Click each picture to magnify.
