On 16 September, almost 3.000 runners faced, here in Progetto Manifattura, two obstacles of the 20k StrongmanRun. The winners of the sixth edition in Rovereto were Paolo Gallo from Piemonte and Alessia Scalet from Trentino. A special mention was also given to the 71-year-old Carlo Papa, the oldest runner who finished the competition. Among the participants, mainly from Trentino, Veneto, Emilia Romagna and Lombardy, there were also Germans, Swiss and Slovenians.

More than 500 people with their heads up to discover our 160 year old history casted on the Clock Building walls thorugh the videomapping technique: it happened last week during the performance of the science writer Mario Tozzi, produced by Mismaonda and Trentino Sviluppo for the Oriente Occidente dance festival.
