The marathon course travels from Santa Maria to Spello and returns, combining urban stretches with roads outside Assisi. Participants encounter gentle inclines, ancient olive groves, and expansive vistas surrounding the city, presenting a challenging full distance that avoids the feel of a flat city circuit. The shorter races welcome newer runners and individuals of diverse ages, while the “Vieni con me” family run serves as a solidarity walk for families and supporters. The event aligns with the Eighth Franciscan Centenary commemorations, drawing its local character from both the running aspect and the Franciscan environment near Assisi.

Perugia Training Notes

Perugia hosts 13 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals keep running simple in Perugia. You can run 3 km on the flat near the football stadium. Giardini del Frontone gives you a 400 m perimeter when you want short repeats. Parco Santa Margherita gives you wooded paths close to the centre. Parco Santa Margherita gives you wooded paths close to the centre and about 1 km when you just need a few clean kilometres. N. Perugia and Gryphus sit in the local club mix. Grifonissima and Perugia Jazz Half Marathon are the anchor races.

Riders leave Perugia from a city that sits on a hill. The route covers 65 km with 119 m of gain on bike paths, dirt roads, and paved roads. Le Vie del Bike points you toward bigger Umbrian days, from the Tuscany border to Gubbio. Monte Peglia gives Umbria its highest climb at around 800 metres. Gubbio gives you streets with a gradient of 15% or more. Riders can get into a nice climbing rhythm here. N. Perugia and Gryphus keep the local club names around the scene.

Mornings around 7 or 8 AM suit runners who want cooler air and fewer people around. Evenings around 5 or 6 PM suit runners who like that golden Perugia light before sunset. Summer brings warm to hot and humid days, so locals move intervals early and keep longer Z2 work out of the heavy heat. Cyclists use the same rule and save Lake Trasimeno Ring Trail or Le Vie del Bike days for cleaner hours. Winter brings cold conditions and occasional snowfall. Runners shift toward steadier town loops, and riders pick their road days with more care.
