Description
We start at Circus Maximus (or in some case from your hotel), the biggest stadium of the Roman Empire! Kilometer after kilometer unveils monuments and architectural wonders, as we wind our way through one of Rome’s most popular shopping districts, stopping at the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain. This 21 km loop leads you through the famous Forum’s of Emperors past and gives you a glimpse and photo opportunity of the Colosseum, rarely seen by tourists glowing in morning light. Cruising through one of Rome’s most Roman neighborhoods, Trastevere, you feel as though your surroundings have stopped in time. Roughly halfway through our adventure, and after a few sets of stairs we take in a bird’s eye view of Rome, with the waking sun blanketing a golden red over the countless cupolas that make up the Roman skyline.
No visit to Rome would be complete without a stop by Piazza del Rotonda to admire the Pantheon or Campo di Fiori – center of Roman social life by night and produce market by day. With historical monuments and stories around every corner, it is no wonder why Rome is often referred to as the world’s largest open – air museum.
Experience it all before the cars, noise and tourists retake the city! This private tour gives you all the sites and is led by running guides who are eager to share their city with you! We will run this tour at your pace and are ready to stop for photos when you need. There are countless drinkable water fountains on the course (called “Nasoni” – “big noses”), with water still brought in from the mountains via Roman Aqueducts! The tour is great for all types of runners, mostly flat with roughly 100 meters of uphill/stairs and will be run at your pace.

I can’t say enough about this tour. It was so much more than I expected and was the highlight of my trip! Dario was great, he gave so many hidden spots, with stories, and unlimited stops at the Roman fountains!

With a limited period of time in Rome this was the perfect way to cover ground! Fabrizio was fun, personable and informed. Was so special to see this stunning city before the crowds – a true treat! Highly recommend this to anyone who is passionate about running and wants to see the best that Rome has to offer!

This run was the best! I can’t thank Fabrizio and Dario enough for such an amazing 13 mile run. We saw all the sight, plus areas of Rome that I never would have made it to. They were incredibly informative. It was the best time I spent in Rome. Hands down. You won’t regret this run!

Fabrizio and Claudia were excellent company for my 20k run around Rome.
We started at 6am when it was cooler and we finished just as the city was waking up.
A few hills, plenty of water stops and lots of fun with my running/tourist guides.
If you want to keep your running going whilst on holiday, then I recommend these guys 100%.

Best thing I did in Roma. Period. The two most knowledgeable, professional, and enjoyable people, Fabrizio and Dario organize a phenomenal tour of one of the most beautiful cities on earth. Prepare to be immersed in history while running through present day Roma with two great guides. Start before the morning rush and you will be treated to a unique perspective of this wonderful place. Just think, the further you run, the more pasta you get to eat later on!!! If you enjoy running, DO NOT MISS this experience!!! Oh, and do the 21k and you will see more of Roma in 3 hours than most see in 3 days.
