Pisa Marathon

I had high expectations for this race, it's Pisa! unfortunately I felt let down. The volunteers out at the aid stations were awesome! The route was rather boring. so many beautiful places to see and the route seemed like a lot of normal business areas, especially on the long out and back. it did end along the coast, which was beautiful and of course at the leaning tower. Lastly, running through the residential areas was rather dangerous at times as the residents didn't seem like they liked being inconvenienced and came fairly close to runners as they tried to leave their neighborhood.

need a better route

Great marathon route through Pisa centre and out to the beach and back. I felt that the roads were incredibly long and quite tough on the morale but one can’t help that! Service stations were very amply maintained with oranges water sweets and lots Of smiles from the stewards who were excellent on the day. Lots of photos too!

Long! Pretty flat. I think the slight incline at about 4 miles was the highest and I powered through that. I will encourage the wouod be marathoner not to rush at the start because all runners begin at the same point including the half-marathoners who will be going a little faster. My time of 4hrs was because I rushed with the crowd a little too much at the start.

It was really great! Beautiful route int center and along the see. It was fast, I ran my here my PR this year. And excellent organisation - I am grateful to Agata and the others, which helped me when I missed my flight. Thank you!

Beautiful route!

Nice setting, flat and good service.

Me gusto mucho todo - gente feliz, el sendero, la ciudad, el mar etc.

Muy buena organizacion. El camino fue bien entendido hasta el final. Muchas gracias a todos los organizadores, incluido el buen tiempo.

If talking about organisation part, it was perfect, organisers always smiling and trying to help, and really big thanks, cause after that distance i realized how it is good to run, even if you are not really running fast, you still can enjoy sport evens and it feels great, so if about organising and making atmosphere of fest these guys are great! weather was bit colder then expected and raining... but it is winter, so just have to except it, and enjoy running

from beginners -maybe we need bit more reminders what time is it how long we are running. Cause some of us (like me) can fall asleep somewhere;)

Are you ready to leave for a touristic and beautiful trip to Italy? Pisa is a superb place to visit, and this Marathon is an excellent opportunity to join our runners' community. And, the path is quite simple. We started from the 'Piazza Dei Miracoli,' where we enjoyed a fantastic view of the famous tower, and we went on to the beach. It's a mainly straight on direction, smooth and fast until we reached Tirrenia with its beautiful promenade. To come back was a little harder because 42km and more are not so easy for beginners like me, anyway when I met the finish line everything was terrific. It was a great satisfaction, indeed. And I gained a beautiful medal and an artistic designed T-shirt. The weather was a little bit windy, but we didn't have rain, and the temperature was not too cold even if it was in December because we were near the sea. To sum up, do you like running and seeing amazing places? It is your marathon: don't miss it!
