From this design of nature comes the GSR Ultra Trail , the shoe signed by Fessura , designed to tackle any terrain with grit and lightness . Bringing it to life on the field were Marco Brutti and Mirko Fioretti , Fessura athletes, who on Friday 23 May at 10:00 pm , set off from Visso to cover the entire ring. An undertaking experienced as training for the next races, but also as a personal challenge: a journey made of resistance, fatigue and determination .
On your feet? The Ultratrail GSR , shoes designed to push you further. Always ready to respond, when the terrain changes and the will resists.
A suggestive workout
The weather forecast did not promise anything good . The day had been marked by continuous rain and temperatures that were anything but spring-like , despite the season. Yet, as night fell, the sky calmed down .
The clouds dissolved, leaving space for the concentration of the athletes, in a silent landscape . In that moment, between the shadows and the air, determination took over : the true strength that pushes every athlete, every journey, every enterprise forward.
103 km, 4 stops, one goal
Their itinerary touched different areas of the territory:
-
Start – Visso (0 km)
-
Painting of Bolognola (24.6 km)
-
Forca di Presta (62 km)
-
Perugia Refuge (74 km)
-
Finish line – Visso (103 km)
A race through woods, ridges and valleys that ended at 1pm on Saturday 24 May , closing the circle of an undertaking that is not only sporting, but also symbolic for the brand itself.
GSR: not just a trail, but a future to write
With this feat, Fessura has laid the first piece towards a bigger project: to give life to a real trail running race in the heart of the Marche . The Great Sibillini Ring is the perfect natural stage for those who want to test themselves, run in a still authentic landscape, experience the trail as an experience of total immersion in nature.
Marco and Mirko, with their steps, have traced the path . Now we need to plan an official trail race for the future, the GSR has been completed , but it is only the beginning.
