THE DREAM

About Telesia Half Marathon — what makes it special

ABOUT THE RACE

A day you'll remember,
long past the finish line.

This is half marathon, held in the southern Italian spa town of Telese Terme.

The route passes through the town center and Lake Telese, then runs by the Telesea archaeological site, with its Roman-era walls, and a Norman abbey.

As an IAAF- and AIMS-certified Category A course, it produces an officially recognized time and combines thermal baths, history, and a 21K course.

When the city cheers

“I was getting very hot.”

The runner took part with reduced training volume and struggled with the heat and a lack of water stations late in the race. They drank water from a fountain along the way and finished in 1:34, enjoying the generous selection of food.

gazzellarunRan in 2019
“No matter what I do, I can't get it into my head that I need to run slowly, slowly, slowly!”

At the 2019 Telesia half marathon, this runner reflected on starting too fast and felt the need to control the opening pace. The runner shared a starting corral with Valeria Straneo but reached the finish much later.
