This morning, once again, the most challenging part of the track was situated next to the finish line. I would have never thought that the Formula Run Cap race was tough, considering that we ran through the Southern part of Rome.
Anyway, more than 1500 runners ran that 10 km race which was held in support of the children's Hospital of Rome (Bambino Gesù, that's its name). The organization was good, The volunteers were all great and really nice, the weather was perfect.
The photo shows the starting line 1 hour before the race and behind the starting line you can see the Square Colosseum, which is considered an icon of Fascist architecture.
Despite the hilly track I enjoyed the race and was delighted enough with my time taken: it was 45:43, although my goal was under 45 minutes (04:30 min./km).
