1. Welcome Message
European Athletics President’s Welcome Message Lisboa 2019
I am delighted to welcome everyone to the SPAR European
Cross Country Championships here in Lisbon, an event which
continues to be one of the highlights of our annual competi-
tion programme. This is the 26th edition of these champion-
ships and I am very happy to see that it is going to be staged
in the heart of the capital of a nation with a great cross coun-
try tradition. Portugal has won more than 50 medals in the
previous 25 years of these championships and this alone is a
testament to this country’s enthusiasm for this discipline, and
their runners’ talent. It is also the third time that the SPAR Eu-
ropean Cross Country Championships will have come to Por-
tugal, after Oeiras in 1997 and Albufeira in 2010. Both of those two previous champion-
ships in Portugal were superbly staged events, notable for their excellent organisation
and outstanding hospitality, and so I have every confidence that our hosts will rise to the
challenge once again. Portuguese cross country runners have had great success on the
continental stage not least thanks to senior title winners like Paulo Guerra and Jessica
Augusto, but who can forget the three world cross country triumphs of Carlos Lopes?
Carlos’ win on home soil in 1985, when those championships were also in Lisbon, was
hugely memorable but I also remember well his victory the year before, which was to
be a prelude to his gold medal-winning performance that summer in the Olympic mara-
thon. Perhaps a few runners here will go on to have similar success at the Tokyo 2020
Olympic Games but what I am certain of is that many of the competitors here, not least
those that climb the podium, will make an impact on the Paris 2020 European Athletics
Championships. European Athletics are very grateful to the Federação Portuguesa de
Atletismo – the Portuguese athletics federation – the city of Lisbon and the public au-
thorities here as well as the all the officials and volunteers with the Local Organising
Committee for their hard work and commitment to staging this event. I am sure that, in
so many ways, this will be a SPAR European Cross Country Championships to remember.

LOC President’s Welcome Message Lisboa 2019
It is with great pleasure that, on behalf the LOC of the 2019
edition of the SPAR European Cross Country Championships,
I offer a warm welcome to all those that are coming here;
whether you are a runner participating in these champion-
ships, the media, sponsors or a spectator.
This LOC incorporates members with extensive experience
as well as others that have been involved in a project of this
magnitude for the first time. However, regardless of our back-
grounds, I can say that we have all worked very hard to pro-
vide everything that this important European Athletics compe-
tition requires and deserves. As a result, I believe that these championships will be
remembered for its organisation and hospitality. To put everything in place it was neces-
sary to have the cooperation of many other people, the LOC alone could not have staged
these championships, so I would like to acknowledge the role of the volunteers, to the
Portuguese Athletics Federation officials and Lisboa City Hall staff members, without
whom our task would be impossible. It would have been equally impossible without
the financial support of the Lisboa City Hall and of the Portuguese Youth and Sports
Institute, as well as commercial partners that have provided a huge array of services and
products. I offer a very sincere thanks to all of them.
A big thank you has also to be extended to the European Athletics Delegates and to the
European Athletics staff members that worked with us ever since we were awarded the
right to stage these championships. In addition to being good friends, their profession-
alism has been unstinting and an invaluable assistance.
My overall hope is that all those who will visit us before and during the championships
will leave with very good memories and wish to come back again to visit this wonderful,
historic, beautiful, cosmopolitan and vibrant city that is Lisbon.

2.2 Host City Lisboa
Lisbon is a historical city full of stories to tell, where the sun shines 290 days a year and
the temperature rarely drops below 15°C. A city where you feel safe wandering around
day or night, where the cuisine is dedicated to creating over a thousand ways to cook the
beloved bacalhau (salted cod), and where you’ll find hotels and restaurants to suit every
taste, budget and requirement. Discover Lisbon, a city full of authenticity where old cus-
toms and ancient history intermix with cultural entertainment and hi-tech innovation.
Lisbon is ageless, but it loves company, as you’ll find out if you meet someone and
ask them to explain, with lots of gestures and repetition, where the best place is to
listen to Fado. After all, Lisbon is famous for its hospitality and the family-like way it
welcomes visitors.
