Ticino marathon

The Ticino Marathon (Italian: Maratona Ticino ) was the only marathon in the canton of Ticino . It took place in Tenero in November from 1983 to 2013 and was organized by the Società Atletica Vis Nova . The program also included a half marathon . In 2014 the planned run was canceled due to a lack of sponsors. The Ascona-Locarno Marathon has replaced the Ticino Marathon since 2015 .

The route was a flat, paved circular course through the Magadino plain and along Lake Maggiore with a detour to the center of Locarno , which was run through once in the half marathon and twice in the marathon.

The Swiss Marathon Championships were held seven times as part of the Ticino Marathon: 1985, 1989, 1992, 1996–98 and 2007.
