Three male runners smile and pose with medals under a finish line arch at the "Bergamo 21 Follow Your Passion" race. They wear race bibs and athletic gear, with a digital clock above showing a time of 1:13:44. A group of marathon runners, wearing numbered bibs and athletic gear, run down a city street flanked by historic buildings on a sunny day. Spectators stand on the sides and the atmosphere is energetic. A large group of runners stand at the starting line under a black archway that reads "Follow Your Passion" at the Bergamo City Run, as spectators look on and buildings line the street in the background. Runners lined up at the start line of the Bergamo Urban Night Trail race at night, under a black archway with event and sponsor logos, while spectators stand nearby holding umbrellas in the rain. A large crowd of runners in colorful outfits fills a city square at dusk, surrounded by historic buildings and a tall clock tower, with city lights illuminating the background hills.

Organiser's Description

Bergamo21 is the season opener of the FollowYourPassion series.

A fast race that takes you through the streets of Bergamo. Two distances are available: a 21 km competitive (for tourist-sporting goals) race, and a 10 km race, both competitive and non-competitive.

The Urban Night Trail is a different way to experience the city. A 12.5km route and a course that winds along the most picturesque spots in Città Alta. Starts at down and finishes in the night. The following morning is animated by the two “traditional” road races in the Città Bassa: the very fast 10km and the Bergamo21 Half Marathon
