It is now possibile to register for the first Italy Run organised by the Consulate General of Italy in London in partnership with the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, taking place on 22nd September 2024.
Please register on the dedicated website Home – Italy Run London | UK Running Event, where you can find all the relevant information on how to register and take part.
The run will take place on a 5km route and will finish in Holland Park, where a stage for a prize-giving ceremony will be erected and the “Italy Run Village” will be created. There, partner companies will be present with some exhibition stands.
On the day of the run each participant will be given a running kit which includes a national blue t-shirt featuring the logos of the event and the Italian flag. A distinctive “blue wave” will wind its way through the running route.
To ensure the greatest inclusivity there will be various categories for male and female prizes: adults, juniors (11-17) and over 65. Partecipants who are placed first in the male and female adult categories will win a two-night stay at Castelfalfi Spa in Tuscany.
Italy Run is not only a run but also an opportunity to help those in need. The proceeds from the registration fees will be donated to two charities: Fondazione Eagle https://www.fondazioneeagle.com/, which deals with combating health poverty in Italy and Kensington-Chelsea Foundation https://thekandcfoundation.com, which promotes social projects in London.
We look forward to seeing you on 22nd September in Holland Park!
