Pink Run

The Pink Run 2026 will return to Padua on Sunday, May 10, one of the most participated sports and solidarity events of the spring in the City of the Saint. The event, now in its XVII edition, will traditionally start from Prato della Valle and will unfold over a route of 8 kilometers, to be tackled by running or walking.

The Pink Run is a race reserved for women that each year involves thousands of participants, united by the symbol of the pink shirt, which has become over the years a distinctive sign of the event and its collective, festive, and supportive dimension.

For the 2026 edition, the event has designated the Braccio di Ferro Association as the beneficiary, an organization dedicated to supporting pediatric palliative care and the families of small patients at the Pediatric Hospice in Padua. In particular, part of the proceeds from the race will help create and fully fund a project dedicated to the study and evaluation of sleep in children receiving pediatric palliative care, a field still underexplored but crucial for the quality of life of small patients and their caregivers.

The project aims to improve the understanding and management of sleep disorders through non-invasive monitoring tools.

Online registrations will open starting March 8, 2026, at www.pinkrun.it
