If anyone is participating in the Rome Marathon this weekend I highly suggest checking this out, it sounds like an awesome experience hosted by a fun and energetic group!!
On March 22nd, the day before the marathon, friends of mine at The Roman Guy (travel experts on Rome and Italy) will host a “pre-race shake out tour” of the city. The tour will start with a guided visit to the Colosseum and a walking portion around the Colosseum, Palatine Hill & Roman Forum. Then, the tour will pick up the pace for a running portion and light cardio warm-up before the next day’s marathon. On a course of 3.6km, or just over 2 miles, runners will see Piazza Venezia, Trajan’s Column, run to the top of Capitoline Hill to see the view of the Roman Forum, back down the hill to Largo Argentina, Campo dei Fiori, Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain & the Spanish Steps. The group will stop at each site for explanations and photos. Tours will have a maximum of 12 people and be guided by either Sean or Brandon, professional tour guides and native English speakers.
Event: “Pre-race shake out tour”
When: Saturday, March 22, 2014. 9:00-12:00 Colosseum tour, 12:00-13:00 running tour.
Where: Meet at the Colosseum
Who: Runners participating in the 2014 Rome Marathon (tours given in English)
