What is behind the medal of a champion?On Saturday, January 17, 2026, we invite you to a new, unmissable appointment of "Olympic Stories," a review organized by the Province of Belluno together with "A Mountain of Books".
The guest of honor will be Antonella Palmisano, gold medalist in the 20 km walk at Tokyo 2020 and a symbol of the rebirth of Italian athletics.
Together with journalist Andrea Schiavon and Francesco Chiamulera, we will retrace her story: from her first steps in Puglia to the world stage, through determination, the secrets of the "invisible discipline," and the strength to get back up after every injury.
The meeting will take inspiration from the book “Before Winning” by Andrea Schiavon to tell how talent, combined with method and courage, can transform dreams into Olympic reality.
