The San Francesco Marathon takes over the roads between Santa Maria degli Angeli and Assisi, pairing a fully paved route with views of the Umbrian hills and the basilica that gives the event its name. Runners can choose a marathon, a half marathon, a 10K or a family run, so the day mixes serious racing with a relaxed, shared outing for all ages. The programme leans into the spiritual character of the area, and a photographic service records the day for participants. The 2026 edition is listed provisionally for 22 November, with final details published on the event's own website.
