The pins

Start street pin: 41.894246, 12.4853983, a point on Via dei Fori Imperiali, not a mat.

Circo Massimo monument pin: 41.8861584, 12.4853087. The expo page puts the village there and names Metro B Circo Massimo.

Beds we checked

Hotel Forum, Via Tor de' Conti 25, 00184. NH Collection Roma Fori Imperiali, Via di Santa Eufemia 19, 00187, with the hotel's own GPS.

Neither address is a course mile. The organizer's hotel page is a list of tour operators. We did not turn those packages into picks.

Edition status

Checked 5 November 2026 against the FAQ, the September Italian rules, the April English short rules, both expo pages, and the ENDU card that still says Register now. No GPX. The finish is the same named area as the start, not a surveyed mat.
