Not even a year ago, it was the month of July 2022, he rejoiced at the great result achieved in the supermaster swimming circuit: «Today I am the third national athlete in the m35 category as an overall score for 2022, therefore not only the result of a single race, but that of an entire season, and above all of a path of personal, professional and sporting growth that has brought me here. So many sacrifices, so much commitment, constancy and patience. Special thanks to my company Swim Sassari, the president, the coach and all my teammates. I hope I can continue to get satisfactions and give thanks to this beautiful world that has given me so much».
But Claudio Rais, 37, has been gone since yesterday. Overwhelmed by a cruel fate, he left the world he loved so much, reciprocated. Born in Sassari, he was well known in the city and on the regional sports scene, given that he was also a triathlete.
On his Facebook, many anecdotes of sporting life also lived as a personal trainer. Last summer he also followed the central defender of the Cittadella, the former Cagliari player Dario Del Fabro, in an individual swimming session.
In the presentation of his page, in evidence, there is still a maxim of Mark Twain: «In twenty years you will be more annoyed by the things you haven't done than by those you have done. So let go of the moorings, leave the safe harbor and let the wind swell your sails. Explore. Dream. You discover".
At 37, for him, everything has vanished. But Claudio Rais will remain the memory of a boy who loved sport.
