About
The Trofeo S. Stefano-Trattoria Za-Za is a Santo Stefano running event in Florence, beginning in the Piazza San Lorenzo area with the meeting point at Piazza del Mercato Centrale. It features a 13 km competitive race and a 6 km non-competitive run, allowing trained racers and those seeking a relaxed post-Christmas outing to participate on the same morning.
The series has reached its 25th edition and is a well-attended fixture on the local running calendar, drawing over a thousand participants in the previous edition. Its appeal is linked to central Florence: runners assemble around the Mercato Centrale and San Lorenzo, then proceed through a part of the city where daily market life, churches, and narrow historic streets are situated closely.
