Corsa dei Castelli is a road running event in Trieste, beginning at a castle and concluding in the city centre. The primary event is a 10 km competitive run. A 10 km non-competitive option is offered within the same programme, alongside an 8 km Family Run suitable for walkers and casual runners. It takes place in October and attracts thousands of participants, including athletes from IRRU23.
The route commences at Miramare Castle and concludes in Piazza Unità d’Italia, a principal square in Trieste. The 10 km course is designed for speed, featuring long straightaways beneficial for runners aiming for a fast time. The non-competitive 10 km allows participants to experience the race atmosphere without time pressure, while the Family Run is intended for those seeking a relaxed walk or run through the city.
