IX^ StraBresso (10km)
StraBresso is a road race in Bresso offering 5 km and 10 km distances for adults, plus a 2 km race for schools. The 5 km and 10 km races are FIDAL-homologated. Participants can run either distance competitively or non-competitively, accommodating licensed runners and those seeking a local, casual run.
The school race offers a distinct local character. Parents and accompanying adults may participate. Each runner receives a colored bracelet corresponding to their chosen school. This marks the event's ninth year, with official routes available for all three distances. The 5 km and 10 km races are open to all participants.
Deejay Ten Milano
Deejay Ten Milano is a 10 km road race in central Milan, organized by Radio Deejay and run on closed city streets. It begins at 9 AM from Piazza del Duomo and finishes back in the city center, offering runners a race day centered around one of Milan’s most recognizable squares.
The route remains in the city center, with traffic closed and Radio Deejay’s music and entertainment positioned along the course. Runners participate from across Italy, and the Deejay Village in Piazza Sempione manages bib and race-packet pickup before the race.
Monza21 (Half-Marathon in Monza)
Monza21 allows runners to use the Monza motor-racing circuit in Lombardy, the same track used for the Formula 1 Italian Grand Prix. It is held in October, avoiding the peak of the Italian summer heat, and offers four on-road distances: 5 km, 10 km, half marathon, and 30 km. The event welcomes families, catering not only to serious half-marathon runners but also providing shorter options suitable for newer participants or those running with friends and relatives.
The course is rolling and fast, presenting a realistic target for personal bests for well-trained runners who pace themselves correctly. The start and finish straight feels longer when experienced firsthand than it appears on television, adding to the enjoyment of running on a venue designed for racing cars instead of road races. Aid stations are positioned along the route like pit stops, supplying runners with water, fuel, and a brief respite before they rejoin the circuit. Monza also serves as a convenient base for exploring Lombardy: Milan is approximately 45 minutes away, featuring the Duomo and Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, while Bergamo and Sirmione offer additional nearby destinations for runners before or after race day.
VI^ Memorial Mattia Corvi
The Memorial Mattia Corvi is a 5 km road race in Gravedona ed Uniti, held in October in the town center by the lake. It is a national-level FIDAL Bronze event on a homologated 5 km course. Recent editions have also counted for the FIDAL Lombardia 5 km road championship for Allievi, Junior, Promesse, and Senior runners.
The course uses two similar 2.5 km laps, with minimal elevation gain and repeated passes along the lakefront. It is designed for fast running, then sends athletes onto the track for the finish, where many spectators gather. Earlier editions also linked the memorial with the CSI regional road running championship and opened the race to all categories.
Vibram Ultra Trail Lago d'Orta
Vibram Ultra Trail Lago d'Orta is an autumn trail-running series based in Omegna, on Lake Orta in Piedmont, Italy. The distances range from short trails to a full ultra, with 12 km, 21 km, 34 km, 55 km, and 100 km options. The long race is a single 100 km loop with 5,270 m of climbing, while the 55 km race is also a single loop and still includes 2,860 m of ascent. The 34 km route adds 2,000 m of climbing, making even the middle-distance option a serious mountain run.
The routes traverse woods, technical trails, hard climbs, and offer viewpoints over Lake Orta and the surrounding mountains. The 100 km, 55 km, and 34 km races award ITRA points, attracting runners building ultra experience and those seeking a demanding day in the mountains. The 55 km race is the most popular of the main formats, with over 500 runners in the previous edition, while the 100 km still had more than 200. Runners also come from outside Italy, and the event connects the racing weekend with local food, villages, and traditions around the lake.
Stramilano SottoZero
Stramilano SottoZero is the winter version of Stramilano, the well-known Milan city-running series. It is a road race in Milan on December 1st, with temperatures near zero Celsius, so winter clothing is necessary. Participants select either 5 km or 10 km. The short, very flat course is accessible for new runners, while still allowing experienced runners to compete seriously.
All participants begin at Viale Cassiodoro, and the course follows the 5 km path within Parco di CityLife. The location places the race among the modern buildings of CityLife, instead of a lengthy tour of the entire city. It can be entered competitively or casually, aligning with the Stramilano event series that also offers 5 km, 10 km, and half marathon distances. The inaugural event sold out, providing this cold-weather race a rapid start with local participants.
Synlab Como Lake Half Marathon e 5 km
The Synlab Como Lake Half Marathon begins and ends at Villa Olmo in Como, with the finish line situated before the neoclassical villa and its expansive park. This December road race offers two distances: the officially certified 21.0975 km half marathon and a 5 km option for participants seeking the same event atmosphere without the full half-marathon challenge.
The half marathon departs from central Como, tracing the Lake Como branch past Cernobbio, Moltrasio, Carate Urio, and Laglio before looping back to Villa Olmo. The course is FIDAL-certified, though not designed for personal bests because of its rolling terrain along the lake and inclines that demand careful pacing. Cernobbio features Villa Erba as an additional route landmark, and by the mid-2020s, the event had already marked its 13th running.

About 5K races in Monza
Monza Training Notes
Monza hosts 14 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Monza Park owns the running week here. Locals use Parco Reale di Monza and the Royal Gardens for Z2, tempo, and easy shakeouts when half-marathon training keeps going, sometimes faticosamente. The yellow route gives 3 km, the blue route gives 5 km, and the red route gives 10 km, so intervals stay simple. The red route runs 10.97 km on a certified line. De Ran Clab gives the scene a real local pulse. Mezza di Monza, Monza21, 10K Monza, Lions Running, La 8 alle 8, and Monza Resegone keep the calendar honest.
Monza Park also sets the riding rhythm. The Autodromo Nazionale Monza opens on certain days to registered cyclists, and locals treat the Temple of Speed like a proper crit playground when the calendar allows it. Ride Beat brings the anchor bike race onto the track. The Lambro River gives steady base miles, and the circular tour to Verano Brianza is the clean Brianza loop to know. Società ginnastica monzese Forti e Liberi sits in the local club picture. The circular tour to Verano Brianza covers 5 km and 700 m of gain.
Spring and autumn suit Monza best for both sports. Locals use those months for sharper intervals, gran fondo prep, and longer trail days without overthinking the weather. Summer brings warm, humid riding and running, and July averages around 24°C, so most people start early in the park. m. Winter changes the feel. Fog and colder days push runners toward steady Z2 in the park, while cyclists pick clearer windows or keep the Autodromo dates as a bonus.
