About Maratonina della Città Murata

In December, Cittadella, in the province of Padua, hosts the Maratonina della Città Murata: a competitive FIDAL half marathon of 21.097 km, alongside non-competitive routes of 6 and 12 km. Organized by Maratoneti Cittadellesi, the race winds through the streets of the walled city in a Christmas atmosphere, and is one of the most cherished running events in the Alta Padovana region.

Running within the medieval walls

The Maratonina della Città Murata is the half marathon of Cittadella, in the province of Padua, which every December brings hundreds of runners to race in the Christmas atmosphere of the walled city. The charm of the event lies in its route, which crosses the streets enclosed by the famous medieval walls, in one of the most evocative settings in the Veneto region.

Competitive race and routes for everyone

The event offers the competitive half marathon on the official distance of 21.097 km, homologated by FIDAL, alongside two non-competitive routes of 6 and 12 km, open to amateurs and families. A formula that combines the competitiveness of registered athletes with the popular and festive nature of the race.

A tradition of Maratoneti Cittadellesi

The organization is handled by Maratoneti Cittadellesi, a historic running association in the city. The Maratonina della Città Murata is now a well-established event on the year-end calendar, capable of closing the Veneto running season with an event that focuses on sport, conviviality, and the beauty of the territory.
