StraLugano

StraLugano offers participants a flat 5K, a certified half marathon, a relay, or a 9 km climb to Monte Brè, all within the same weekend. The event takes place in Lugano, Switzerland, in late September, organized by Associazione StraLugano, featuring road running, trail running, walking, children's races, and family activities. The half marathon is a single 21.0975 km loop certified by Swiss Athletics. The 10Km CityRun is a fast course with minimal elevation gain, and the 5Km FunRun is suitable for beginners. The Monte Brè Run covers 9 km with 730 meters of elevation gain, including an initial stretch on the Sentiero di Gandria and a demanding final ascent. The StraCombinata combines the 10K with the Brè Run. Teams can divide the half marathon relay, and children compete in age-appropriate distances. Five francs from each registration fee benefit youth programs.
