Group picture of the EUI running club

 

Are you looking for a group of colleagues to run with throughout the academic year? Then, you are very welcome to join the EUI Running Team.
The team aims to gathering people who are either preparing for running races such as full/half marathons and less competitive events or simply want to do a regular healthy sport activity.

 

Date and times


Every Thursday at 7:00 pm, except on the first week of each month, which is on Wednesday

 

Where


Piazza delle Cure (next to Gelateria Cavini)

 

Information


The EUI Running Club is a social running group open to everyone in the EUI community. Our weekly run is a relaxed loop around the Campo di Marte stadium (distance from 6km to 11km depending on the number of loops you want to do), usually at an easy pace (between 6:00 and 6:45 min/km). The focus is on enjoying the run together, not on structured training.

Beyond Thursdays, members often self-organise longer runs on weekends or track trainings, including half- and full-marathon training. Communication happens mainly through our WhatsApp Community and Strava.

 

Races


Many of us take part in local events, with highlights including the Florence Marathon, Florence Half Marathon, or the Ecomaratona del Chianti Classico. Participation is always individual since we are not a registered competitive club.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced runner, you are welcome to join us for a social run and good company!
