The Padova Marathon is the most important business card through which the Padua area presents itself abroad.

It is because no other sporting event is able to unite two souls with the same strength: the great popular festival and the important technical event, now consolidated in the calendar of Italian and foreign specialists.

The great competition is able to attract runners and tourists from all over the world, thanks to the numerous initiatives that accompany the main event, but it is also a point of reference for elite athletes of road races.

From year to year, popular participation continues to grow and reward an event, capable of attracting four thousand registered participants each edition in the two competitive races, the 42km Marathon, and the 21km Half Marathon.

 
As a corollary to the two competitive races there are also the Stracittadine, the non-competitive races of 10, 5 and 1 km that make even those who usually do not wear t-shirts and running shoes.

A warning for the Paduans to make a new pact with their city, an invitation for international runners to discover a city of art with two UNESCO World Heritage sites during a high-level technical race.
