  • 2010.07.22. - Luca Della Moretta’s report

    Hi there! I’m Luca, one of the youngest participants in the championship (24 years old). I took my encouragement from Paolo Della Patrona’s suggestion to enter the competition. Hi took part last year in the Nizza Ironman and I followed that and found this kind of competing very attractive. I started cycling and swimming in September, and running in the winter together with swimming. The consequences of this became, in an insane moment, I registered in the Bonyhád competition, truth is, with little training but with a lot of will.

  • 2010.07.20. - The report of Gyula Sárosi

    Township of Völgység – or else, shipping the news form a town of Völgység. ‘In the beginning there had been two townships in the newly inhabited Tolna county, the one around Simontornya and the other one around Dunaföldvár. In 1725 the township of Völgység, which also excels with its picturesque beauty, was detached from these two long, north-south lying townships. The centre of the township of Völgység became Bonyhád, which at that time did not count as a main town yet.’ But today it does all the more so. :-)

Welcome words of the manager of the competition

Dear Sport Fans, Competitors, Sponsors and Tenacious Spectators,

Above all, I would like to give my thanks to all those who have helped us with their extremely successful and internationally recognised organisational work to the fact that the right to organise Ultra Triathlon World Championship in 2010 has been awarded to the towns Bonyhád and Dombóvár by the International Ultra Triathlon Association (IUTA). At the same time, I would like to emphasize the support and magnanimous help we have received from local spectators, fans and voluntary collaborators. I am pride that our competitions have become the most popular and attractive events on regional level as a result of pooling local resources.

With participation of 64 competitors coming from 15 countries, our objective is to draw Europe’s and World’s attention to Hungary, namely to South Transdanubium region and to this kind of sport which needs huge power of will and tenacity.

I am sure that having invested work in the successful accomplishment of this year’s competition we will bring an unforgettable sport experience to everybody, showing the way to SPORT and healthy life at the same time. Our competitors, sponsors and faithful fans will heartily be welcome in Bonyhád and Gunaras.
