We have started up again, Rome has restarted. 16 March 2025 is a new day that will never set. Eternal, like Rome. The Colosseum is waiting for your return after 42.195 km in a Rome that awaits you, cradles you, transports you. Achieve your goal, travel through time.

A route that is unmatched anywhere in the world, starting from the Imperial Forum, with the passage in front of the Colosseum, the Arch of Constantine, you will gaze upon the Palatine and Circus Maximus, you will feel the breeze of the Lungotevere and then again you will pass in front of Castel Sant’Angelo, on Viale della Conciliazione with St. Peter’s Basilica, the Foro Italico and the Mosque, Piazza del Popolo, Piazza di Spagna with the famous Spanish Steps, Piazza Navona, the stairways of Santa Maria in Aracoeli and the Campidoglio, the Theater of Marcellus, you will run next to the Circus Maximus, the last km with the Arch of Constantine and the Colosseum again in front of you, the final meters with the finish line again at the Imperial Forums.

Heart, head and legs. Yes, you are there, Rome is there!

The National Anthem, the Legionaries with their ancient armour at your side and you who have chosen to be there. Yes, you are there. Breathe. Live, run, walk, cry with joy, feel the chills running down your arms, the sweat on your forehead, your legs pushing harder and harder. The medal is there, at the Colosseum. It is yours.

Rome envelops you, embraces you, captures you, awaits you on 16 March 2025.

You can also conquer Rome and its Run Rome The Marathon by walking. All Fitwalking practitioners and enthusiasts are welcome at the new Rome Marathon and will find guidance and support from their specific pacers, who will accompany them on sport walks throughout the route at the appropriate pace, from the relatively relaxed 6 hr 30 min pace to the high-performance 5 hr 45 min pace. It doesn’t matter how fast you go or when you arrive, the important thing is the journey and doing it on foot is always something special and exciting. It allows you to experience the Eternal City and its extraordinary beauty even more intensely, savouring the challenge of a marathon to the full.
