Ravenna Marathon City of Art
The Ravenna Marathon is a 42 km race through the historic city of Ravenna, a UNESCO World Heritage site, touching all eight UNESCO monuments. The course is described as a journey through art, emotion, and pure energy, with the city's mosaics inspiring the finisher medal.
Ravenna's quiet, golden November is the perfect time to wander its streets and admire the UNESCO mosaics of San Vitale and Galla Placidia without the crowds. After the race, treat yourself to a plate of cappelletti in ragù, a local pasta specialty, and a glass of Sangiovese, the region's signature wine. The artisan mosaic finisher medal, inspired by the Mausoleum of Theodoric, is a keepsake you'll treasure long after the autumn air has turned crisp.
