The Lucca Half Marathon is one of the most fascinating running races in Tuscany, thanks to a route that combines the historical beauty of the city with the technical quality of a FIDAL-approved race. With an almost completely flat route and a minimal difference in altitude, it is ideal for athletes looking for a new personal best. The route runs through the heart of Lucca, starting on the majestic Walls of Lucca and arriving in one of its main squares, Piazza Napoleone. Crossing its characteristic paved streets, it is possible to pass through the most evocative places in the city.

The race is made faster by the fact that it runs along the city walls twice and the external cycle path twice, making the route smooth and without sharp bends (avoiding runners having to change their pace). Running on this elevated ring offers an unforgettable experience, with wide tree-lined avenues that alternate with picturesque views.

Participants can count on refreshment points strategically positioned along the route to ensure maximum support for athletes. Water and mineral salts will be distributed to maintain the right level of hydration and replenishment during the race. In addition, medical assistance and pacer services are provided to help runners better manage their pace. Thanks to the FIDAL certification, the Lucca Half Marathon guarantees high standards in terms of measurement and regulation of the route, making it an officially recognized competition for achieving times valid for national rankings.
