Tommaso Bassa

Known in Vicenza and California ultrarunning circles as “The Bocia,” he began his running career with the express purpose of finding an excuse not to study. His young age soon led him into bad company, and from that moment he began his descent into the underworld of distance running.

After suffering the anguish of Coach Grazielli for years, he decides to rebel and as often happens the victim becomes the torturer: he brings to the group his freshness, a precision at the limits of endurance and a maniacal dedication.

He lives in the province of Vicenza trying to hold his own against his partner in running and in life: one of the few battles in which he regularly succumbs.
