Personal words from head coach and organiser Ramon Gysin:
"Days like these are the reason why I love to organise competitions. The athletes train hard for this day. It is all the better when so many personal best performances are achieved. Without volunteers, you can't have a competition like this. I thank all volunteers for their commitment! You live community and you make these days possible.
Stay strong / Ramon"
