Alex Schwazer contestant on Big Brother Vip: “I will train there.”

Alex Schwazer has been announced as the first official contestant of Big Brother Vip, starting next Sept. 11 on Mediaset.

The South Tyrolean marcher was made official by host Alfonso Signorini with a video on social media, and he promises that he will not interrupt his activity as an athlete: “I will be there if I am put in a position where I can also train. I plan to return to competitions and for no cause can I stop training.”

This is Signorini’s response, “I promise that we will follow you day by day in this training that I know will be very tough, worthy of an Olympic champion as you are.”

Schwazer, who won gold in the 50-kilometer march in Beijing, still dreams of redeeming himself after his 2016 exclusion and lengthy disqualification, which will end precisely in 2024.
