Back in 2002, I did a half-marathon. Now that I’m determined to get back in shape, I’m looking for other similar opportunities in Italy. I will probably never do a marathon, but a half-marathon and a few smaller races will be good goals.
Below I have started listing big races in Italy, the month which they normally occur, and the date for this coming year (if available). I haven’t decided on one yet, but I’ll probably be looking for a half marathon in the springtime!
