ROME YOU CAN DO IT – 21K

We begin at the Circus Maximus (or, in some cases, from your hotel), the largest stadium of the Roman Empire! Kilometre after kilometre reveals monuments and architectural marvels 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-kilometre loop takes you through the legendary Forum of Emperors past and offers a glimpse and photo opportunity of the Colosseum, which is rarely seen by tourists glowing in the morning light. As we cruise through one of Rome’s most Roman neighbourhoods, Trastevere, you feel as though time has come to a standstill. 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 casting a golden red blanket over the countless cupolas that form the Roman skyline.

No visit to Rome would be complete without a stop at Piazza del Rotonda to admire the Pantheon or Campo de’ Fiori – the centre of Roman social life by night and a produce market by day. With historical monuments and stories around every corner, it is no wonder that Rome is often referred to as the world’s largest open-air museum.

Experience it all before the cars, noise, and tourists reclaim the city! This private tour showcases all the sights 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 whenever you wish. There are countless drinkable water fountains along the route (known as “Nasoni” – “big noses”), with the water still brought in from the mountains via Roman aqueducts! The tour is suitable for all types of runners, mostly flat with approximately 100 metres of uphill/stairs, and will be conducted at your pace.
