Join the group run in Milan
We are pleased to offer a group run in Milan that will bring together both EASD 2026 attendees and citizens of Milan for some morning exercise at Piazza Burri, only 650m from the main entrance of the Allianz MiCo.
This is the perfect way to start your day in Milan and network with fellow EASD 2026 attendees outside the congress centre. All paces are welcome to join.
