34° Sulle Orme di Enea

Sulle Orme di Enea is a competitive road race in Pomezia, south of Rome in Lazio, with a listed distance of 9.9 km, similar to a classic 10K. It begins at 09:00 from Piazza San Benedetto da Norcia and takes place in early June. The event is presented as a city race, but the organizer also connects it with nature, culture, and history, aligning with the Aeneas theme in a town linked to ancient Roman legend. The route is described as urban, indicating a straightforward road-running event. Its distance makes it accessible for regular runners seeking a distance shorter than a half marathon, while still offering a competitive race. The name translates to “In the Footsteps of Aeneas,” and the race incorporates that narrative by presenting the run as a local adventure through Pomezia rather than simply another timed 10K.
