IF THE faces of some of the Swindon Town players yesterday was anything to go by then it would appear that few anticipated just how highly Paolo Di Canio values fitness. http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/news/headlines/9123468.ITALIAN_JOB__Straight_in_at_the_deep_end_for_Town_squad/?ref=rss Title: Re: Adver News: ITALIAN JOB: Straight in at the deep end for Town squad Post by: BANGKOK RED on Wednesday, July 6, 2011, 11:20:33 Is Norcia high altitude?
Title: Re: Adver News: ITALIAN JOB: Straight in at the deep end for Town squad Post by: Batch on Wednesday, July 6, 2011, 11:25:44 Norcia altitude 604M (or in some areas nearby it gets up to 1452m , depends where they are staying I suppose)
Swindon: 74M High altitude is sometimes defined to begin at 2,400 metres (8,000 ft) above sea level So no. But Norcia is in an old lake basin, and there are lots of hills around. Not sure they get that hight but they aren't going to be much fun to run up (if PDC goes Macari on them).

It's a 'base for mountaineering and hiking' according to Wikipedia, so fairly high altitude probably. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norcia |
