This race starts just outside the old city walls, under the Porta Garibaldi where around 700 runners congregate. The atmosphere before the start was very friendly and talkative; running clubs from all over Sicily (and the rest of Italy) were represented and there were only a few runners, like my husband and I, not in club colours and club tracksuits.We found it mindblowing that there were only four portaloos at the start and at no point was there ever a queue – simply unheard of at a race in the UK!
The course heads out of the old town, through a park area and then along the coast to a residential area where you turn around, following the sea the whole way (past sailing clubs, an archaeological museum and bars and cafes) then in towards the old town again where you run through the start/finish line and head out for two more laps. Each lap is 7K, flat and on pavements.
