New challenge for Stefano Oppo. The Oristano rowing champion, winner of the bronze medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, will take part, with the colors of the Carabinieri Sports Center, in the XXX edition of the SilverSkiff, a historic regatta organized by Canottieri Cerea which this year boasts an extraordinary number of participants: well 550.
The race is scheduled for Sunday in Turin on the river Po. In reality, there are two days: Saturday is reserved for the Cadet and Cadet categories over distances of 1 and 4 kilometers, and on Sunday all the other categories (Junior, Under23, Senior and Master ) compete over a long distance of 11 kilometers with alternating starts every 15 seconds.
Winning the title will not be the athlete who arrives first - the starting order is random except for the participants of the previous edition - but who completes the course in the shortest possible time.
