Tony Longo is the new Marathon Italian champion. TX Active-Bianchi’s rider took the "tricolore" jersey at Etna Marathon, 78 km race in Milo (Sicily) on Sunday, September 22nd. Longo preceded Damiano Ferraro (+6:19) and Samuele Porro.
“Finally, it was about time! I'm really happy of this fantastic result. I knew I was in a good shape, but every race holds traps around the bends. In 2013 I focused on Marathon races and our choice was well rewarded. I wish to dedicate this success above all to myself, because I know the sacrifices I did in the last months, then to my parents and to the whole team TX Active-Bianchi” Longo commented. "It was really a successful season for us, all over the world", the Italian rider added after winning the Tricolore on his Methanol SL2.
Among women win Elena Gaddoni (FRM Factory) in front of Lorenza Menapace (Titici Lgl Pro Team) and Antonella Incristi (Ki.Co.Sys.Cussigh).
