    Wolf #5 : Luca Manfredi Negri

    Luca Manfredi Negri is a 36-year-old Italian athlete, who has always had a great passion for sports. After practicing a wide variety of sports at a young age, he began to develop an interest in running at age 25, first on the road then by trail, conquering more technical mountain terrain. Luca steadily developed as an athlete, gradually improving his performances and his results year after year. Having grown up between the mountains (Aprica) and the plains (Milan), his heart and soul have always been drawn north towards the hills and mountains. It's now where he spends most of his time in search of remote trails and breathtaking landscapes. We recorded this podcast in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis and Luca opens up about the current situation in Italy, which is known to be catastrophic. He explains how he's been managing his training and how he expects his trail-running season to go despite the pandemic. By sharing his values, ideologies, and optimism about the future, he hopes he can help other runners live through this global crisis. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
