The already large family of the Verona Run Marathon, which will embrace the eagerly awaited 10,000 runners who will run on the streets of the city on Sunday, November 19th, 2023, now has a new major company that has chosen to join its name and strength to that of the Verona marathon, which is the largest and most important running race in the city, the 2nd in Veneto, and the 5th in Italy in terms of participants.
Eurospin is now the new title sponsor of the Verona Run Marathon 42K | 21K | 10K, particularly for the marathon distance.
Eurospin Verona Run Marathon 42K | 21K | 10K is the new official name that will accompany all athletes and their families and friends, approximately 30,000 people, who will come from all over Italy and 50 foreign countries on November 17, 18, and 19 to enjoy the beauty of one of the most fascinating cities in the world. It will also be a great celebration with the finish line in Piazza Bra, in front of the Arena, thanks to the highly anticipated Italian Fidal Absolute and Master Championships.
"We are happy to have formed this new partnership with Eurospin" said Stefano Stanzial, President of Gaac 2007 Veronamarathon Asd, the organizing company of the event.
"It is one of the most important companies in our area, with their headquarters in San Martino Buon Albergo, the municipality where the marathon course will pass for the first time this year. The local connection is a source of great pride for us because it means that we have sown something over many years of sports, well-being, important international competition, sports tourism, and solidarity with our many projects. With Eurospin, we will walk, or rather run, side by side for a while, sharing passion, determination, and professionalism."
"This year, Eurospin celebrates its thirtieth anniversary. Celebrating such an important event in the city where we were born would already be a good reason to inaugurate this partnership," says Alessandro Penasa, President of the Eurospin Group.
"But it's not just that. Running is a sport accessible to everyone, popular in the best sense of the word. We are also accessible to everyone, smart shopping is for everyone, without distinctions. Furthermore, as marathon runners know well, the rewards of running are always the result of commitment and passion. These thirty years have also been full of commitment, passion, and achievements for Eurospin. That's why we feel a particular affinity to the values of the Verona Run Marathon and we are very happy to have embarked on this journey. So, have a great Eurospin Verona Run Marathon everyone!"
