Marathon races near Turin

Turin Training Notes

Turin hosts 5 Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run the River Po when they want flat Z2 and easy base miles. The River Po runs 5 km from end to end. Parco Pellerina gives about 4 km of lovely paths, and Parco Della Rimembranza gives hillier work with 45 km of roads and paths. Polito Running Club brings the university crowd out for social runs, and Run n' Roll has that coffee-after vibe. Turin Marathon, Torino City Half Marathon, TuttaDritta, I^ Porta Palazzo Run, and XVII^ 24 Ore di Torino/100 Km sit on the calendar as anchor events.

Locals ride the Po River paths for a gentle spin, then point the bike at Superga or Colle della Maddalena when the legs need climbing. Superga Basilica sits atop a 672 m hill, and Parco Della Rimembranza climbs hard toward a 715 m summit. Polito Cycling and ASD Polito Cycling give the city a proper club scene, with road, gravel, and student energy. Superga Hill Loop, Colle della Maddalena Ride, Colle delle Finestre, and Superga - Colle della Maddalena are the usual names. The Superga Hill Loop covers 8 km with 1,370 m elevation.

Spring and autumn feel like the best months because the city gives you river paths, parks, hills, and enough cool air for intervals without drama. October has a proper cycling feel when vineyards are starting to turn orange. Summer makes the plains quite hot, so locals use shade along the River Po, Parco del Valentino, Parco Naturale di Stupinigi, and the hills for cooler Z2. The record high hit 46°C on 11 August 2003. Winter stays moderately cold and dry, so runners keep the river loops steady and riders save bigger climbs for clearer days.
