The Torino City Half Marathon takes place in late November alongside the Turin City Marathon and the non-competitive Torino City Run; more than 4,000 runners started the half in 2025. It is a certified international half on the FIDAL calendar: the start is in Nichelino on the south side of the metropolitan area, and the course follows the marathon route for most of the way into the heart of Turin, finishing in the grand Piazza Castello by the Royal Palace. Bib numbers are capped to keep service standards high, with support from the Piedmont Region and the towns of Nichelino, Moncalieri and Beinasco. After the finish, enjoy the Egyptian Museum, the Mole Antonelliana, the royal residences, and hot chocolate or bicerin in a café under the arcades.
An easy run with a local club the day before the race — the best way to shake out the legs and meet the city.
