Rome Marathon is an annual marathon hosted by the city of Rome, Italy in March. The competition has also doubled as the Italian Marathon championships on two occasions; in 1983 and 1986. The 2010 race was held in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Abebe Bikila’s win at the 1960 Rome Olympic marathon race and the winner, Siraj Gena, crossed the finish line barefoot in honour of Abebe Bikila’s style. The events include Marathon and Roma Fun 4K.
