The fourth edition of the Rosengarten Schlern Skymarathon in Tiers will not take place until 10 July 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
"We have really tried everything and hoped that the situation would ease so that the race could be held in July, but unfortunately this is not the case. In this particular emergency situation we cannot allow ourselves to lose sight of the most important goal - that is, the protection of our loved ones, our fellow human beings, all athletes and the volunteers around the sports club, mountain rescue and fire brigade," stresses OC President Bernhard Rieder.
The health of the runners and volunteers as well as the fight against the corona virus pandemic have absolute priority at the moment. The cancellation comes with a heavy heart, but a race is not conceivable under the given circumstances, because after all, this event is supposed to be a carefree and forgetful sporting experience in the middle of the Unesco World Natural Heritage Dolomites.
But there is also good news: the date for 2021 has been fixed for 10 July. Already registered runners will be informed by e-mail about their options.
Registrations for the 4th edition of the Rosengarten Sciliar Skymarathon are possible from 1 July 2020 at www.skymarathontiers.it
