Eight minutes. How many kilometres did you cycle in 8 minutes? How many heartbeats have you had in 8 minutes? How much emotion and suffering, how many drops of sweat in 8 minutes, at the top of a climb? Eight minutes. How many pedal strokes, how many rotations of those tyres on that rough asphalt in 8 minutes?
The light we see now, at this moment, was born eight minutes ago on the sun, our star. The light that illuminates us now has already passed far away. Each moment of light is, in its essence, a whisper of time, the echo of a moment that has already passed, reaching us like a work of art suspended in the sky. Like riding away on our bicycles. We leave long shadows, chasing the light. "Omnia quae sunt, lumina sunt" (All that exists is light), Ezra Pound reminds us in one of his writings. We are light because we ourselves are an emanation of a higher light.
It would be polite toward Creation if we continued to be so.
The sun will rise again on 6 July, and we will be there for the next Maratona, unconsciously kissed by the most precious gift, the light that illuminates the world.

To illuminate, to light up, to see the light, to emerge from darkness: how many messages can be drawn from the word Lüm – Light.
The 2025-Maratona theme logo is compact and solid, yet completely shaped by the rays of the sun, deeply and entirely marked by light, a thin line capable of leaving a clear imprint.
The final M resembles the Maratona logo but also represents the peak of Sassongher, which is magically illuminated every year at 6:30 a.m. as we await the start of the race, offering a kind of reassurance, a gentle touch for all the excited cyclists.
However, this is just a quick symbolization. Lighting up means much more. To illuminate oneself is to find one's inner light, which must mark us deeply like the rays in the logo. Our transformation must occur throughout our lives, helping us to see beyond the darkness and continue on our journey.

read moreA new product in the Greentech collection, previewed for Maratona dles Dolomites participants, is the Smart Tape handlebar tape. The tape comes as a single strip with integrated cap in the same material, which eases its application. The tape is made without the traditional, internal double-sided adhesive strips: the special “suction cup” micro-structure compensates for the lack of glue and allows the tape to be reused if ever removed. With a thickness of 2.5 millimetres, it guarantees comfort and superior grip and saves up to 20% of the time needed to wrap the handlebars. The savings also extend to the CO2 emissions, which, according to the analysis by Up2You, were 24% less than those emitted by the production of a standard handlebar tape outside of the European Union.

The partnership between Castelli, Alta Badia and the Maratona dles Dolomites-Enel is a perfect union between three realities that represent the excellence of cycling and the territory that hosts one of the most demanding and spectacular Granfondo races.
Castelli is an Italian company founded in 1876 that specialises in the production of technical cycling clothing and is characterised by a constant search for innovation and quality. The partnership between Castelli, Alta Badia and the Maratona dles Dolomites-Enel is based on shared values such as excellence, passion and care for the territory. In fact, Castelli is committed to protecting the environment and reducing the environmental impact of its production, just like the Maratona dles Dolomites-Enel, promoting the sustainable management of the event.
Heinz Kostner left us on November 29th 2022 at the age of eighty-one. He was very attached to Alta Badia and his community, and did so much for the development of the area.
We remember him as a member of the first board of the Maratona dles Dolomites, of which he was the first president for ten years.
On behalf of the entire organisation, volunteers and friends of the Maratona, we would like to say thank you to him once and forever.
Stè adum a te Heinz è tres stè bel. T es stè na nosta gran ispiraziun. Tües paroles à lascé l segn.

With summer now behind us, it's time for the two-wheeled crowd to lay the groundwork for a new cycling regimen by reviewing and improving upon what’s been achieved so far. For many cyclists and triathletes, the fall-winter period means indoor cycling, or rather indoor training on rollers. This is a great opportunity for some quality training when it’s not possible to train outside due to too many commitments or unfavorable weather conditions. Find out the role of sport nutrition in indoor cycling.
Umanité. Humanity. Being human. In the dual sense of humans and humanitarians. Perhaps we are forgetting that we are human. And that we are terrestrial beings. We should realise this now, more than ever before. Because if we don’t realise it immediately, that we are from Earth, we will disappear altogether. Not in a few million years’ time. Just a few dozen. Since we are human beings, we have the chance to choose. Who knows what we will choose? For now, in our small insignificant world, we have chosen to hold a very special Maratona. Dedicated to terrestrial beings as supportive, altruistic, empathetic, available. Human, in fact. Enjoy the ride filled with humanity.

'The Maratona of the fighters' is a celebration to those who experience sport in a slow way. In a hectic society one sometimes has to slow down and enjoy the moment. What better occasion than this day? We met people who were tired, enthusiastic, astonished, terribly hungry but happy. Could this really be their victory?
Less than a week to go until the opening of the Maratona Village and we reveal two more surprises.
There will be an exclusive Audi RS Q etron, the innovative electro prototype with range extender that took part in the last Dakar Rally where the Audi Sport Team successfully debuted in the 2022 edition obtaining four stage victories and 14 stage podiums and subsequently winning the Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge.
Olympic champion Tania Cagnotto will play the role of official patroness of the event and will be present on Saturday at the Maratona Village at the Exquisa stand to greet all her fans. On Sunday morning she will be at the finish line to welcome the winners at the prize-giving ceremony.

This year too, the dish of the Maratona is another must-have, prepared by six hands by Valeria Margherita Mosca, Andrea Irsara, a famous local chef, and Elena Casiraghi nutritionist expert of the Equipe Enervit. The dish, which is specifically devised for cyclists, was created using only local ingredients, in keeping with the theme of the Ciüf, sustainability and locally-sourced cuisine. In a nutshell: barley, Swiss pine, fermented fir buds and dandelion. A simple, delicate, energetic and at the same time fragrant dish.
We are one month away from the Maratona dles Dolomites - Enel, one of the granfondo races that all of us would like to complete at least once in our lives. We are aware that all those who have signed up are busy training. But beware, there is another kind of training beyond the physical that we need to take care of: nutritional training. This is key if we want to tackle the Dolomite climbs as best we can.
Watch the video of Elena Casiraghi, the Equipe Enervit expert who will take you through the Enervit Nutrition System, your supplementation strategy for the Maratona dles Dolomites - Enel.
It’s not long now. There will be lots of you and you can enjoy the landscape, actually you will be the landscape. Because the landscape only exists inside us, in our perception. Therefore, the natural landscape is a creative construction of ours and, through our actions, we determine what it is. For better or for worse. Taking part in the Maratona means constructing a beautiful landscape inside us and, for once, we switch off our car engines and switch on our desire for freedom.

read moreOnly a few months have passed since the 2021 edition but we are already busy getting ready for a new Marathon. Which will naturally be even better. Why? Because we are all nature so there couldn’t be a more suitable dedication: flora, in all languages; but we are Ladin people, so we wanted to call it Ciüf, the word for flowers in our language. Flora is beautiful, flora surrounds us and also reflects the nature of human beings. Some flowers seem to smile while others are a bit sad; some are a bit scary, like carnivorous plants, and others almost seem suspicious, just like some of us. There are simple ones, straight, curved, and fortunately also those that turn their heads to look for sunlight. And it’s those ones that we need for looking forward to another successful Marathon. To anyone dreaming of taking part, have a wonderful autumn - the larches here are yellow, some are already on fire. That’s also how the flora affirms its expression of the absolute.

Let us hope to learn from roots. They are otherworldly spaces for us; but they, the roots, transform the narrow into life, the underworld becomes paradise. They grow, develop and feed on what they find.
Observing roots to gain a new awareness and finally begin to feed on what we have, accepting what is because it cannot be otherwise. With lightness and not superficiality, because life, made of obstacles and hindrances and lack of light, remains an immense gift of colours, scents and beauty.
May it be a good year, with the wish to love each other.

Preparations are in full swing for the next Maratona dles Dolomites - Enel, which will be NATURALLY even more beautiful. Because we are all NATURE and there has never been a more appropriate dedication: FLORA, in all languages, but we are Ladin so we wanted to name it CIÜF, the flowers, as they are called in our language.
Each flower contains a library dedicated to wonder.

Abandon hope is written over that gloomy entrance. Yes, the huge problem still exists. Small hearts understand each other, they have small problems; but big hearts have big problems, just as great minds have to address unsolvable problems. The bigger the issue, the more difficult the solution. No, the comedy does not end divinely, Dante’s task is not fulfilled with Heaven. Now it’s time to put things in practice. What can we do?

March 21st 2021
Many questions are being asked these days. The most important of which is: Will the Maratona take place? Yes? No?
What we can say today is that the running of the Maratona will depend on the development of the pandemic and that we, with a consistent safety protocol, can significantly increase the feasibility of such an important event. And we are working on this to get ready for July 4th.
We are monitoring the situation and are in constant contact with the relevant bodies in order to ensure the running of the race by drawing up a plan so that the event can be held with guaranteed safety for participants, volunteers and workers.
We are optimistic that we will be able to finish our artwork and we ask all of you to maintain this optimism and continue to train.

This year’s draw will be a little different than usual. The good luck of those who’ll be there, and also the good luck of those who won't - because luck doesn't give itself away, it merely lends itself. Bad luck is also just a passing thing, and not seeing each other over the last year will only increase our desire to meet up again. We must all stop waiting for our lucky day and take our lives in our own hands, putting the wind in our own sails to carry us forward. Let's hope there’s good weather along the way.

Autumn. The season when the beautiful wind blows. The “in” season, not a season that we’d otherwise call “out”. The seasons are not merely a result of tourism - far from it. It would actually be much better to get rid of “tourist seasons”; at the end of the day, beauty can be found in all seasons. Autumn is beautiful, a strange one this year.

Let's keep the Maratona alive and make this day a memorable one!
Dear Alex, friend of the Maratona and friend of all of us. Your phrase 'Disabled are those with low self-esteem' is a motto for us, an indication, a constant signal. Your strength is such that it is not so much a point of reference, rather a real lighthouse, whose light goes far beyond the energy you have in your arms, in your head, in your heart.
Dear Alex, enough words, these days many people have written beautiful things about you. We want to tell you that you are pushing the group once again. And behind you there are thousands and thousands of Maratona riders following you on the Dolomite climbs and on the climbs of life. Alex, we wish you much strength.

wants to help every cyclist to become a ‘finisher’ of Italian Granfondos
In a season so difficult for everyone, even the amateur cycling movement has suffered significantly, with the cancellation of almost all the races scheduled for 2020, except for some which have been postponed to autumn. Formula Bici is determined to send a positive signal, launching an initiative to raise funds, but also to motivate all cyclists: this is ‘Formula Bici RideYourDream’, designed to allow all cyclists to become a ‘Finisher’ of any Formula Bici event, by paying a contribution of €10 which will be donated entirely to the “Protezione Civile Italiana” (Italian Civil Protection).

TRAIN RESPONSIBLY!
Dedicated to art, this year's Maratona dles Dolomites - Enel will remain an unfinished artwork. But as you may be aware, it is not always possible to complete an artwork in a short time. Therefore we decided to cancel this year's appointment and to finish our artwork next year on July, 4th 2021. This will be the day where the 34th edition of the Maratona dles Dolomites - Enel will take place.
The Maratona is a party, a cycling party, a party where people show their passion for cycling and a place for those people that come from all over the world to share the same passion in the middle of the Dolomites. But it doesn't take long to understand that this is not the right time to party.
It's a hard time for everyone. When a cyclist faces a climb they are encouraged with words like come on, you can do it. Now, more than ever, is the time to support each other, to give each other strength and courage.
Next year we want to make it a special moment for everyone. To the participants, whether they already confirmed their registration for 2020 or not, we tell you not to worry about the registration, we know well that right now you have other concerns and because your registration will be kept valid for the edition in 2021. More details on how to validate your registration will be communicated within the end of April on our website, on social networks and personally by E-Mail to each participant.
Come on people, see you next year. Lift up your hearts!

Adopt or donate a tree! Our health and happiness depend on Nature, so help us look after it.
Eco-sustainability, environmental protection and the development of sustainable tourism are shared values for the Maratona dles Dolomites – Enel organising committee and for all those who live and work in Alta Badia.
On 29th October 2018, extremely bad weather in the Dolomites caused extensive damage, destroying millions of trees, roads, trails and damaging entire villages.
Even some of the beautiful woods, who have seen the immense group of ‘marathoners’ pass through for years have been razed to the ground by the storm.
Therefore the Maratona dles Dolomites - Enel together with Alta Badia supports a project dedicated to the reforestation.
The project, called WOWnature needs all of us. Help us by adopting or buying a tree.

The Maratona dles Dolomites - Enel is many things rolled into one: a competition, an event, an emotion, a story, a passion, and a unique experience for those who push down hard on those pedals or those who put all their commitment into organising it. In order for the Maratona to run smoothly, we apply principles in line with well-defined ecological values, respect for the environment and people, and sustainability.
In 2019, we intensified our inspections and discovered that there were several competitors who had not registered properly, a few that participated with an e-bike and many others who had thrown paper and rubbish along the road.
The competitors without bib and the riders who participated with an e-bike were given a lifetime disqualification. The participants who threw rubbish along the way were banned from registering for the next 3 editions.
Furthermore, some riders could not start due to not valid medical certificate.
A clean Maratona, in every sense of the word, is the only type of Maratona we envisage.
