Wondering what's happening at the end of November just across the border from the snowy Alps in the land of the Fiat 500? ๐ Before hitting the slopes, join us for the Turin Marathon! ๐ In the Piedmont region, the Torino City Marathon welcomes thousands of athletes and amateur runners ๐โโก๏ธ. Since 2024, it has made history, ranking among the top five Italian marathons ๐คฉ. And it certainly lives up to its reputation ๐ค: a super flat course, spectacular landmarks ๐๏ธ, a vibrant atmosphere ๐, and a breathtaking finish line in front of the Royal Palace! ๐
Did we get your adrenaline pumping without even mentioning food? ๐ Let's dive into the course details ๐. Certified by FIDAL, the route starts in the city center and winds through the metropolitan areas of Turin, Moncalieri, Beinasco, and Nichelino ๐. To discover the beautiful Italian city, you can choose from three distances: a marathon, a half-marathon, and a 5 km race! The marathon is the most iconic event, offering a more comprehensive experience than any tourist tour ๐บ๏ธ. If you're short on time, you can opt for a half-marathon starting from Borgaretto with a fantastic city-to-city 21.097 km route. For beginners or those wishing to stay in Turin's historic center, the 5 km race is ideal. Plus, you're supporting a good cause ๐ช, as 100% of the proceeds are donated to cancer research โ๏ธ. The Turin Marathon perfectly combines performance ๐, solidarity ๐ค, and warmth ๐ค.
Thinking of joining the race with family or friends ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ? It's the perfect time! โจ Experience the magical pre-Christmas atmosphere with "Luci D'Artista" ๐ฎ. For their 28th edition, spectacular light installations by renowned Italian and international artists will transform the streets of Turin into an open-air museum ๐ฅฐ. Speaking of museums, don't miss the famous Museo Egizio, one of the world's largest Egyptological museums! ๐ฟ After burning plenty of calories over the weekend ๐ฅต, treat yourself to a delicious gelato or hot chocolate in one of Turin's cozy caffetterie ๐คค.
Lace up your running shoes; the marathon awaits, so hop in your Turin-mobile and head to the start line! ๐
To kick off the Turin Marathon, what better place than starting right behind San Carlo Square? ๐ You'll then head towards the La Marmora Garden before embarking on a long straight stretch from 1.5 km to 7 km! ๐ฃ๏ธ It's the perfect time to increase your pace and leave your competitors behind! ๐ You'll make a slight detour by the Stellantis site then head towards Beinasco and begin your return through Borgaretto โก๏ธ. Midway, you'll have the opportunity to pass near the Palace of Stupinigi ๐ธ and enjoy another 4 km straight path, passing by the James Clerk Maxwell Institute of Higher Studies ๐งโ๐. At km 30, you'll find yourself in Moncalieri, from where you'll start to follow the Po River ๐. You'll cross to the left bank, admire the Parco del Valentino, and continue your journey to the finish line in front of the Royal Palace after traversing the royal gardens! ๐
