Course & Elevation

The Coelmo Napoli City Half Marathon is a road half marathon in Naples, held on a Sunday in late February. It is organised by the club ASD Napoli Running, under the patronage of the City of Naples, and the 2027 race is the 13th edition. Runners meet at 07:15 inside the Mostra d'Oltremare exhibition complex, the start is at 09:00 on Viale J. F. Kennedy, and the course starts and finishes at the Mostra d'Oltremare. The organisers describe it as one of the fastest and most spectacular courses in the Mediterranean, with glimpses of the sea, historic monuments and a view of Vesuvius. Comments from the 2026 winner mention the seafront, where a headwind can slow the race, and a tunnel near the end. The time limit is 3 hours 30 minutes, with a gate at km 9.5 that closes at 10:40. A non-competitive relay for two runners, of about 9.5 km and 11.6 km, and a family run are held around the race. The race is on the World Athletics, AIMS and FIDAL calendars and holds a World Athletics label, a five-star rating from European Athletics and the FIDAL Gold label.
