ROME YOU CAN DO IT – 21K

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.
