Napoli, Italy

With the Mediterranean on one side and Mount Vesuvius across the bay, the Coelmo Napoli City Half Marathon takes runners through a city unlike any other. In February, when the running season is just beginning, Napoli offers 21 kilometres of sea views, historic streets and unmistakable Neapolitan energy - with a fast course made for chasing a personal best.

The race has already made its mark on the international running scene. In 2026, Yeman Crippa ran 59:01 in Napoli, setting a new Italian half marathon record. Sofiia Yaremchuk also produced a national record-equalling performance here in 2024. For runners looking to start the year fast, Napoli has become a place where big performances happen.

From the start, the route brings the city to life. Run alongside the bay with Vesuvius on the horizon, then into the heart of Napoli, surrounded by historic streets, the energy of the crowds and the unmistakable rhythm of Neapolitan life. The light over the Mediterranean, the changing landscape and the character of the city make every kilometre an experience that could only happen here.

As the first of the six races in SuperHalfs EUROPA, Napoli is the perfect place to start your journey. Come for the 21 kilometres, stay for the city. After the finish, discover the historic centre, stop for an espresso at the counter, taste a sfogliatella or share an authentic Neapolitan pizza with your running friends.

Napoli is easy to reach too, with international flight connections and high-speed rail links with Rome, making it an ideal destination for a race weekend - or the starting point for a longer journey through Italy.
