Mugello GP Run
The running race on the legendary Mugello Circuit
About Mugello GP Run
Run where the champions speed
The Mugello GP Run is one of Tuscany's most evocative running events: a race held entirely on the asphalt of the Mugello Circuit, the international racetrack that hosts the MotoGP Italian Grand Prix every year. Setting foot on the same track surface used by the world's fastest riders, tackling the famous elevation changes and iconic curves, is an thrill that draws thousands of participants from all over Italy every year.
Where and when
The event is held in Scarperia e San Piero, in the heart of the Mugello region in the Province of Florence, inside the Mugello Circuit facility. The event takes place in January and traditionally marks the opening of the circuit's sporting season, set against a winter atmosphere made electric by the magic of the venue.
The different spirits of the race
The GP Run offers formats suitable for everyone, from competitive athletes to families:
- Competitive race of 10.490 km, with a chip and official timing, for those seeking a personal best;
- Fun run of 5 km at a free pace, designed for those who want to experience the circuit without the pressure of a stopwatch;
- Mugellino Kids, the race dedicated to the little ones, to involve children in an adventure on the track.
A celebration of sport in Tuscany
Organized by A.S.D. Maratona Mugello, the GP Run is much more than just a race: it is a day of celebration that unites sport, local territory, and conviviality. In the Expo area set up in the Paddock garages, local and national exhibitors, entertainment, and activities take place, while the Paddock becomes the event's headquarters. After the finish line, refreshments and award ceremonies on the circuit's Official Podium complete the experience, leaving participants with the memory of a truly unrepeatable run in the evocative hilly landscape of the Mugello.
