VI^ Torino City Marathon

The Torino City Marathon begins at 8:30 in Piazza Castello and concludes before Palazzo Reale, positioning Turin’s royal center at the start and finish. This yearly road race features a full 42.195 km marathon, a 21.097 km half marathon, and a non-competitive Torino City Run of approximately 5 km for those preferring a shorter distance. The marathon departs central Turin, passing through Beinasco, Nichelino, and Moncalieri, before returning to the city for the palace finish. The full race has a 5 hour 30 minute time limit, with staged road closures allowing streets to reopen after the final runner passes. The event attracts thousands of participants globally, alongside local club runners and individuals opting for the shorter distances. Runner comments frequently highlight Turin itself as a distinguishing factor compared to other Italian marathons, and a recent edition ranked among the nation’s top five marathons.
