Looking ahead to 2012, they have posters here in Sweden about the next FINA Masters to be held in Riccione, Italy. I went there when they held it in 2004 and had a great time. The dates are June 2-16, 2012.
Has anyone heard if the earthquake in Italy has hit Riccione? The center only looks 80 miles away.
no damage in Riccione
everything is fine
news for OW swimmers
Due to the huge number of participants at the Open Water event, the FINA Master Committee and the O.C. decided, for safety reasons, to split the race in two days, saturday 16th and sunday 17th june.
On saturday the 16th june age groups 40, 35, 30 and 25 men and women will start, on sunday the others age groups 85, 80, 75, 70, 65, 60, 55, 50 and 45 men and women.
The swimmers involved in the Open Water and 400m Free on saturday could be able to swim in both events.
The swimmers who will not able to participate at the 3k for logistic and organizative reasons would have to inform the OC within the 27th may at the email address ow.refund.wmc2012@federnuoto.it in order to be refunded.
