The course guides the runners through the most beautiful parts of the city, next to the most famous buildings and even some attractions that are part of the World Heritage, and across our greatest bridges.
The finish will be located on Heroes Square. Relay runners will have to enter a separate lane. All marathon and 30 km runners will receive a unique medal and a finisher bag upon crossing the finish line.
