“Talking about Pamich is difficult. It is difficult to find the right words for a man, like so many others in those brave lands, who knew how to rebuild his life, fight against everything and conquer great victories in sport and in life. A great man and a great Italian, proud of his blue shirt, despite everything “. Claudio Barbaro, president of ASI, Italian sports and social associations, spoke at the event for the Asi Sport & Culture Award held at the Coni Honor Hall, to pay homage the walker Abdon Pamich, exile from Rijeka, Olympic and European champion, 40 times Italian champion over various distances, who on the stage of the ceremony was greeted by a long applause (PHOTO).
“In our small way, we have always wanted to tell the great stories of men as we wanted to give life to Race of Remembrance. Because Pamich is right in saying that without memory a country does not exist ”, concluded Barbaro.
