Neue UnterkunftNeuRun part of the Venice Marathon route with a race winner
You’ll be in for the run of a lifetime as you pass through Venice’s most breathtaking spots led by an elite runner and physiotherapist. There will be short stops along the way.
• We’ll meet at the Zattere waterfront for introductions and a quick warmup. I’ll share a bit about my background and provide tips to help you with your form and breathing.
• The run will follow part of the Venice Marathon route (a race I won). Starting at a gentle pace, we’ll run along the Giudecca Canal, enjoying its open views and passing by the iconic Santa Maria della Salute and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, housed in an 18th-century palace.
• Other key highlights: weaving through Dorsoduro’s charming streets filled with restaurants and indie shops, and the panoramic view you’ll get after crossing the Accademia Bridge. (Depending on the day, we might, instead, hop on a gondola to cross the canal.)
• We’ll pick up the pace toward Piazza San Marco, passing the Doge’s Palace, crossing the Bridge of Sighs and continuing along two scenic rivers before enjoying an open view of the lagoon. We’ll end with a cooldown at the Biennale Gardens, finishing by the waterfront and a stunning view of San Giorgio Maggiore, and enjoying a coffee or juice to wrap up.
You’ll leave with a new perspective on Venice’s beauty and history—along with running tips to incorporate into your routine back home.
