The Generali Milan Marathon will offer a select group of up to 120 elite runners a last-gasp opportunity to meet the Olympic Marathon qualifying standard on 16 May – less than 3 months before the Olympic Marathons will be staged.
The time to beat is 2:11:30 on a fast course in downtown Milan consisting of an introductory lap of 4695m and 5 laps of 7500m.
In contrast to the recent races on the airfields of Siena and Twente-Enschede, this time it will again be on a course through a city centre.
