The classic Florentine race is set for a complete change in pace and philosophy for its 2010 edition, aiming for a more fluid route while maintaining all its original fascination.The 27th Florence Marathon, due to take place on 28 November, is preparing a big surprise for the thousands of sportspeople from all over the world who will line up on the starting line: a new route that will be much faster, and will have just 40 meters difference of level between the departure and the arrival point, as required by the IAAF regulations. This novelty is the result of a common commitment with the town administration and with the declared intent of providing a further impulse and the prospect of ever greater quality to this international event that is the Florence Marathon. This change of philosophy is also an investment in the future and in the possibility to allow this city Marathon to grow. The decision made by the Marathon staff to abandon the previous version of the route was taken in order to be able to accomodate over 10.000 entries, and taking into account the constant increase in the number of registrations." |
