Trento Half Marathon
Trento Half Marathon is a flat half marathon in Trento, Italy, held each September. A single loop through the city in the Adige valley. It is flat apart from one short, gentle climb near the Castello del Buonconsiglio at about 10 km. It starts in Piazza Dante and finishes in Piazza Duomo. Late September in the Alpine valley is mild and mostly dry, typically 10 to 22°C. Flat courses like Trento's reward metronomic pacing — the danger is going out faster than goal pace because it feels cheap early.
