V^ 5K Fast is a 5 km road race in Como designed for runners aiming for a strong start. It begins in the park of Villa Olmo, shortly before the half marathon, and is listed on the national FIDAL calendar with an internationally certified course.
The route is straightforward: participants run to the 2.5 km turnaround point and return, requiring focus on maintaining pace. The organizers describe it as a course to run “all in one breath,” suitable for those seeking a fast short road race over a lengthy event.
