Ischia dream run

Even this year, the “dream” race, the Ischia Dream Run, will run on the island’s streets, after two editions in the whole island of Ischia, on October 29 the organizers, Forti e Veloci isola di Ischia Asd and Ischia Sport e Turismo A.s.d., have decided to cross by a round trip with the three municipalities that were affected by the earthquake.

The name given to this edition is “run for solidarity”. Departure and arrival will be located in the municipality of Casamicciola Terme and will cross the municipalities of Lacco Ameno and Forio. The race will start at 10am from Casamicciola’s promenade and cross the entire coast towards the center of Lacco Ameno, Piazza Santa Restituta and the climbs of San Lorenzo and Cavallaro until the town of Forio, where once they reached the port they will turn around the historic center passing through the center and descending towards the harbor returning to Casamicciola along the same roads. The distance to be covered is 10 km, although the course has no protruding climbs but the scenario will surely pay for the athletes’ efforts to complete it in whole. At the end of the competitive race there will also be a race for the kids along the promenade of Casamicciola Terme, a few hundred meters, with the aim to make even the babies stars of the event. Membership fees will be totally devoted to disadvantaged families due to the earthquake of August 21, and both the three administrations and so many sponsors have joined the organizers to allow athletes, hoping to be numerous from the mainland, to experience a beautiful day of sport and solidarity.
