5th edition

July 7th 1992

There were over 1000 participants – 1292 to be precise – of whom 32 were women and the Maratona finish line became electronic. The passages and times of competitors were recorded by a sign on the rear numbers and registered by IT systems.
The weather was bad once again: it poured down from Lake Misurina to Cortina. The hail was painful. Then the sun returned to shine on the winner, Rainer Emerich of Dobbiaco on the short route and Pasquale Fiscato, from Veneto, on the long route.

The Maratona’s success continued to grow exponentially. In 1993 there were over 3000 participants (3095 of whom 138 were women).

1996 was an important year for the Maratona. The Maratona dles Dolomites Committee was formed and substituted the Rodes Alta Badia, with the arduous task of organising and foreseeing the ‘future’ of what was becoming a special event as part of a gran fondo cycle race.
6463 people signed up. There was bad weather, it rained and was cold on the Sella, but “the show must go on”.

14th edition

July 9th 2000

2000 saw some great new features.
Firstly, from now on, each edition would have a motto, a key word, theme or special dedication. It began with Living is an Art and it was a great journey. The start was moved to La Villa and the Fedaia Pass was no longer part of the route.
The committee established a fixed number of 6000 participants. Over 30 nationalities took part. However, the edition was marked by a terrible accident: a competitor died while coming down the Giau Pass.
