Italian open-water swimmer Gregorio Paltrinieri recently competed in the 10km race at the European Championships in Paris, where he finished in fourth place. Paltrinieri attributed his performance to mid-race fatigue, noting he “suffered a lot between the 5-9 km mark” and struggled with a narrow course that limited his ability to break away from the pack.

Following his competitive appearance, Paltrinieri is set to host open-water swimming events in Cattolica this September. The schedule includes the return of his “Dominate The Water” circuit on September 19, followed by the Italian Master Open Water Swimming Championships on September 20. These events are part of a collaboration with the Emilia-Romagna Region to promote sports and environmental sustainability in the Adriatic Sea.
