Verona Marathon

Course & Elevation

The Eurospin Verona Run Marathon, known as the Verona Marathon (Maratona di Verona), is a city marathon in Verona, in Italy's Veneto region, held on a Sunday in mid-November and organised by GAAC 2007 Veronamarathon. A half marathon and a Family Run of around 7 km are held on the same day. The first edition was in 2002, and the 25th is set for 2026. In 2026 the marathon starts on Corso Porta Nuova by Piazza Bra and finishes on the Liston in Piazza Bra, after runners cross the Roman Arena in the last kilometre. The route crosses the city from west to east, from the Lungadige along the Adige to San Martino Buon Albergo, passes Piazza delle Erbe and goes through the Giovanni Duca army barracks. For 2026 it adds the first crossing of the Ponte di Castelvecchio around kilometre 18 and the entry through Porta Vescovo at kilometre 40. The marathon is run as a single lap and is FIDAL-certified. The time limit is six hours, with a checkpoint at kilometre 20: marathon runners who miss it are redirected to finish with the half marathon. The course records are 2:09:16 (Albert Matebor Kiplagat, 2011) and 2:29:09 (Giovanna Epis, 2023).
