VENETIANS TIRED BUT HAPPY IN ST MARK’S SQUARE

Fifteen thousand people along the Riva dei Sette Martiri. The joy, as carefully shown by the Gazzettino, of Venetian athletes happy to be in St Mark’s... are all wonderful and striking pictures of the Venice Marathon that yesterday once again gave the city and its Square a special day. Lots of people, a festival of sport, an invasion of colour that filled the St Mark’s area with enthusiasm. It is a sign of a city that is alive and is also able to host events of this kind and that, thanks to the particular environment and urban fabric that frame the race, and despite the crisis, allowed thousands of people to enrol in the event once again this year.
