What does it mean "Sport tourism partecipation" (non-competitive)?
Running the non-competitive Marathon means:
- You will be listed in a public ranking sorted by alphabetical order not by arrival time- you will receive your official time and participation diploma
- You will receive your commemorative t-shirt, race bag and finisher medal
- If you finish among the top 8 runners, you will not be eligible to receive any prize money. If you expect to place in the top 8, we recommend registering for the competitive marathon instead
How can I check if my registration was successful?
The online registration portal automatically sends an e-mail confirming registration when the payment is validated.
If you do not receive this confirmation, please contact us at info@milanomarathon.it, to be sure that your e-mail can also receive the subsequent communications that we will send.
If I can’t participate, can I get a refund of the registration fee?
During the registration process you will be given the chance to purchase an insurance, at the cost of just 10 Euros, which will allow you to obtain the refund of the entry fee in case of cancellation of your participation for any reason.
If a refund is requested by January 31, 2027, the registration fee will be refunded 100%; if a refund is requested between February 1, 2027 and March 23, 2027, the registration fee will be refunded 75%. The refund will be made by April 30, 2027. If it is not possible to make the refund on the same credit card used by the user to register, making it necessary to make a bank transfer, the refund time will be extended until September 30, 2027.
The following are excluded from the refundable fee:
• the cost of the insurance itself (10 euros);
• the cost of the online registration service (5 euros);
• the cost of other paid options.
Note: It is not necessary to provide any proof of the reason for being unable to participate (e.g., a medical certificate). However, the refund must be requested by sending an email to info@milanomarathon.it. A form will then be sent, which must be completed to officially start the request.
