Giampaolo Aloisi (ITA) passed away on January 10th, 2024, at the age of 68. He was President of the Mombocar Sports Group of San Giovanni Lupatoto (Verona) since 2016. He was a valuable athlete in his youth, then a volleyball and athletics manager and very involved in social work and culture. He was the Sports Councilor of the Municipality of San Giovanni Lupatoto for many terms. He was a strong supporter of the candidacy of the IAU 24-hour European Championship held in Verona as well as LOC President for successful Championship in 2022.
It is with a heavy heart we have learned that Giampaolo Aloisi has passed away. Several runners would recognize him as the President of the IAU 24hrs European Championship LOC in Verona. Our deepest condolences go out to Giampaolo's family and the ultrarunning community in Italy.
Nadeem Khan, IAU President
On behalf of the IAU our thoughts are with Giampaolo’s family and the Italian ultrarunning family during these very difficult times.
