Jurassic Miles Endurance Run
A three-distance journey
Italy’s first 100-mile races on out-and-back courses, to be run in loops.
The Jurassic Miles Endurance Run (JMER) is a sport event that valorises the area of Rovereto, emphazising the “Orme dei Dinosauri” archeological site.
Launched in 2023 with the support of the Municipality of Rovereto, the event has been a success thanks to its innovative format: an endurance run that covers three distances (100 miles, 50 miles, and 27 km), on out&back tracks with starting and finish point at “Baita degli Alpini”. This competition offers a unique experience for athletes: challenging distances with moderate height differences, a rarity in the italian and european scene. The event duration is of 32 hours.
