Roma Appia Run

About this event

The Roma Appia Run takes runners along one of the world's most storied paths — the ancient Via Appia Antica. This historic route offers a rare chance to run where Roman soldiers once marched, with the course weaving across original cobblestones, lava stone, and packed earth alongside modern asphalt sections. The mix of surfaces adds character and challenge, though the varied terrain makes it better suited to runners comfortable with uneven ground. Both competitive and non-competitive options are available at 9km and 19.9km distances, letting participants choose their own approach to this unique Roman experience. The event draws a strong local running community and benefits charitable causes in the area.
