Desde entonces y hasta la fecha son muchas las horas de trabajo y dedicación que ha desarrollado la Asocia- ción, desde diferentes vertientes de la historia y estadística atlética, tanto a nivel nacional como internacional y que han deparado ya 90 boletines con varios miles de páginas de excelentes contenidos. La relación y colaboración con la RFEA siempre ha sido permanente y densa, y como fruto de ella se han publi- cado varios libros histórico-estadísticos de algunas de las competiciones de máximo nivel internacional cele- bradas en España en las dos últimas décadas.

    5 GIOCHI NEGATI Il professionismo fatale A Carlo Airoldi entisei tappe per un totale di 1.338 chilometri percorsi a piedi consu - Vmando due paia di scarpe. Per arri - vare da Milano ad Atene e sentirsi dire: “Non può correre la Maratona olimpica. Lei non è un dilettante” . Il destinatario di quel divieto, pronunciato il 31 marzo 1896, è il podista milanese Carlo Airoldi. La sentenza sportiva senza alcuna pos - sibilità d’appello è del principe Costantino di Grecia, presidente del Comitato orga - nizzatore dei Giochi di Atene 1896. A una settimana dall’inizio della prima Olimpiade moderna, non c’è nulla da fare. Airoldi è un turista per niente. Carlo Airoldi maratoneta mancato nel 1896 80 Perché quel giudizio così drastico? L’italiano Non soltanto corse era “reo” di aver intascato 2000 pesetas per aver tagliato per primo il traguardo a piedi o in bicicletta: della massacrante gara Torino-Barcellona.

Ma questo tagliava fuori dalla competizione anche campione regionale sportiva internazionale con ambizioni im - portanti tutti quegli atleti proletari, poveri, di braccio di ferro che mangiavano polvere e grondavano sudore nelle durissime gare podistiche e ciclistiche. Gente come Airoldi, che non poteva certo rifiutare modesti premi in A Porto Alegre però non riesce nella stessa denaro che lo ripagavano un minimo per impresa e rischia il linciaggio degli scom - le enormi fatiche sulle strade accidentate mettitori che avevano puntato su di lui.
