The race
The Eurospin Verona Run Marathon celebrates its 25th edition on Sunday 15 November 2026, with the marathon at 9:00 and the 13th half marathon at 8:00, both starting on Corso Porta Nuova and finishing in Piazza Bra next to the Arena. The World Athletics certified course crosses Roman and medieval Verona: Piazza delle Erbe, San Fermo Maggiore, Castelvecchio, the Arco dei Gavi, the monumental gates and the bridges over the Adige.
Marathon runners head north to the Chievo dam and Parona, and for the anniversary the 21K also passes through the «G. Duca» barracks. The course is almost flat with nine aid stations and more than 50 pacers for times from 3h00 to 5h30 (21K from 1h24 to 2h45). Bibs, the official Joma shirt and late entries are handled at the Expo in the AGSM Forum, open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning.
On race day a free shuttle links the Expo, start and finish, and showers are available at the Expo. The Family Run, open to everyone, takes place the same morning.
