Trento, Italy
Distance: Half Marathon
Offical Race Web Site
In Trento we have joined forces by gathering together the city’s biggest running events to give birth to the “Trento Running Festival”.
The Festival is a whole weekend dedicated to running for people of all levels: top runners, amateurs, families and the young. The event offers the opportunity to meet and watch top athletes trying to beat their record at the half marathon. But why not run just for the fun of it and discover a city with a thousand surprises?
In Trento history is part of the action. The Giro al Sas is one of the oldest races in Europe. It was created in 1907 to honour the patron saint of the city and this year celebrates its 71st edition. It is run on Saturday evening on a 1km lap completed 10 times. Spectators get the chance to see the champions in action repeatedly — some of the best athletes in the world have come to race here, from Stefano Baldini to Paul Tergat and Kenesisa Bekele. The 2017 edition will not disappoint.
Designing a race for champions is difficult but putting one on that can fully satisfy amateurs is even more challenging. The race is designed to give runners the chance for fast times but also to enjoy the sparkling scenery of the city. Among the sights are the basilica of St Maria Maggiore, where the Third Session of the Council of Trento was held, the towers, the Buonconsiglio castle and the passage in front of the MUSE designed by Renzo Piano.

The course of Trento Half Marathon develops on a single tour entirely in the urban area of the city of Trento.
As the valley floor of the Adige River is wide, the race course is not rough, the only ascent is 300m long with a slope of 2%, the rest of the track has imperceptible slopes.
The route is therefore particularly fast and suitable for those who want a chronometric check in accordance with their physical form

The competition, which roughly translates as the Utrecht Canal Run, was initiated by Nico Munzert and had its first edition on May 30.1925. The race, which followed the banks of Utrecht's canals over a 4700-meter-long course, had garnered over 100 participants by 1931, but the crowds of spectators were much larger with over 75,000 people gathering to witness the event.
The length of the race was extended in 1937, but the event suffered interruption in this period, being absent between 1940 and 1946 due to World War II and undergoing cancellations in 1950 and 1955. The 25th edition of the race was held in 1956.
The current course for the Singelloop has a singular clock-wise loop format within the city, which begins near Lepelenburg Park, passes along Utrecht's canals, then finishes near Wilhelminapark.
The course records are very impressive:

Partly thanks to a rich history, Singelloop Utrecht is known both nationally and internationally as a unique running event.The largest in Utrecht with a super fast track, excellent and innovative organization, enthusiastic crowd along the course and a unique atmosphere in the Utrecht city center.The stately Maliebaan and monumental Wilhelmina park are two real Utrecht locations that contribute to the special atmosphere of this event that can count on a lot of interest every year.
In the anniversary book, Pim van Esschoten writes: "The history of the Singelloop has beautiful years and also editions sans histoire.There are years that there is no Singel Run at all.The event comes back strongly three times.At the sixtieth edition in 2010 it is in a new flowering period.This resilience has two sources: the beauty of the course and the history of the course.Together they make the Singelloop a monument. "
Singelloop Utrecht proudly bears the banner of oldest streets in the Netherlands.The first edition took place in 1925. In 1928 there were only 37 participants.Along the course, no fewer than 100,000 people will be public.The start was at the Smakkelaarsveld in Utrecht.The city center of Utrecht is the beautiful backdrop for spectators every year to encourage the runners.Images such as on the right show the historical value of the event.
