Bereavement
18 October 2015: the marathon Capri-Napoli loses its biggest star. Tonight Giulio Travaglio has died!
The first and only Italian winner of the competition, record holder of wins: 5 (1965, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1970), Honorary President since 2003, the year of the return of the competition, after the long break of 10 years.
In the year of the 50th edition, the competition lost a dear friend, a champion and protagonist of the world open water swimming, with its victories around the world between the mid 60s and 70s.
We will miss you so much! R.I.P.
