The road race that colours the streets of Filottrano every June
The Trofeo Città di Filottrano is one of the most anticipated events on the Marche running calendar. Every year, in mid-June, the streets of the historic centre of Filottrano, in the province of Ancona, are transformed into the setting for a road race that blends competition and village festival. Now in its eighteenth edition in 2026, the Trofeo is a classic for runners from the Marche and neighbouring regions.
The Trofeo is a road race of approximately 10 kilometres, included in the FIDAL (Italian Federation of Athletics) regional calendar as a regional-level event. It is open to the competitive categories of Allievi (U18), Juniores (U20), Promesse (U23), Seniores (Senior), and Master, for both men and women, and in recent editions it has also counted towards club circuits in the area. The course winds through the town streets and the roads of the hills surrounding Filottrano, offering participants views of the agricultural landscape of the Macerata and Ancona areas.
Alongside the competitive race, the event offers a non-competitive race and a fun walk open to everyone, designed for families and amateurs who want to enjoy the day without the pressure of the clock. It is this dual nature—sporting and popular—that makes the Trofeo Città di Filottrano an event capable of involving the entire community.
The event is managed by the amateur sports association Vivi Extra Sport ASD, with contact person Stefano Sani, in collaboration with the Municipality of Filottrano and the FIDAL Marche Regional Committee. The organisation relies on specialised timing services that manage registrations and official rankings for the race.
Filottrano is a small hilly town in the Marche region known for its vibrant sporting tradition: in addition to running, it hosts numerous cycling events each year in memory of the champion Michele Scarponi. The Trofeo Città di Filottrano is part of this fabric of passion for outdoor sports, offering runners the chance to discover an authentic village in the Marche hinterland.
