The second Italian title of the season in the duathlon arrives for Noemi Bogiatto of Cuneo 1198 Mentecorpo. After the gold medal in the sprint duathlon at the Imola racetrack, the athlete from Saluzzo (from Bagnolo), a student of Sports Science, repeated her performance by climbing to the top step of the cross duathlon. In the test held in Triuggio (Monza Brianza), Noemi Bogiatto immediately takes command of the race. The mountain bike portion was lively, with Bianca Morvillo (Granbike Triathlon) attempting to return, but Bogiatto reacted very well and immediately pulled away from her rival, crossing the finish line solo with a time of 1h03’08”. On the second step of the Italian podium, at 33”, Bianca Morvillo; bronze for Veronica Di Fant (B3L Triathlon).
