レースについて
Piazza della Vittoria provides the 24th Maratona di Reggio Emilia with a compact start-finish area, a spectator-friendly focal point before the route leaves the town for the countryside. First held in 1996, the race’s Città del Tricolore designation is significant, as Reggio Emilia is where the Italian flag was created in 1797, lending the event historical depth.
This is a road race with a mostly flat profile that gently rolls, particularly as the course approaches Quattro Castella. The course is runnable and has a strong historical identity, favoring steady pacing over aggressive surges. The middle miles offer a quieter, more rural running experience. This marathon suits runners who prefer consistent pacing, some subtle terrain variation, and a practical finish back in the main square.
