We wanted a logo that would reflect the marvel of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region and the feeling of running a legendary marathon.
The logo is evocative of the language of the Olympian gods: it has a profile that reflects the majestic mountains present in every view of the territory. At the same time, it witnesses the ups and downs experienced during a marathon: peaks of enthusiasm opposed to those moments when you think you cannot make it.
It is composed of different parts because this is the spirit of the marathon: a step after another, and one and one again, to the tree, to the end of the road...many fragments of competition that, one after another, compose a Mytho.
Y represents the three stages encountered one year after the other. Each piece of the Y has a different colour representing the town where the race takes place. Each year the Y will be dyed in the colour of the town that hosts Mytho Marathon to identify the event and honour the place that hosts it. And to honour those who will participate. In fact, if you properly look at it, the Y is a runner with his arms raised when he crosses the finish line.

Eco Fvg certifies full compliance to the sustainable criteria of the initiative (including planning, organisation and implementation of the event). Eco Fvg sustainable certification has very precise cornerstones: resource efficiency, waste management, regional promotion and social responsibility. These targets are in line with the long-term climate mitigation strategy presented by the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region with Arpa FVG in collaboration with the managers of the integrated waste system, responsible for collection and disposal at regional level.
The aim of the project is to establish a permanent working table to share expertise and resources so to guarantee an efficient coordination between all stakeholders involved in waste management. A second goal is to raise public awareness and promote virtuous behaviours to reduce consumption and facilitate separate waste collection.

The MYTHO Marathon team is working hard to achieve this important certification by improving resource management and limiting energy consumption as much as possible.

The main green activities planned by MYTHO Marathon are listed below:
-Electric kick scooters: provided by Ducati Urban E-Mobility; the Organising Committee will use them to make quick trips to the main areas of the route;
- Full electric cars: jury and assistance will use green cars to move along the racetrack;
-Green Corner: ecological islands located inside the Expo Village; organization's operators will help visitors to sort waste by raising people's awareness on how to separate waste and produce less rubbish;
- Reuse of the main facilities used for route indications, arrival arches, back podium and other visual instruments;
- Train Service: tourist packages will be available to take the Ferrovie Udine Cividale train that connects Udine and the marathon site. A very comfortable and necessary tool to avoid traffic and reduce energy consumption;
- Attention to materials: the official T-shirt of the event will be made of eco-friendly cotton, while invitations and communications to participants will be sent digitally;
- Volunteers: a group of forty people responsible for rubbish collection in the refreshment points.

The organising committee and the enterprises supporting this Marathon want to promote ever-great steps towards a more Nature-friendly future. This Earth hosts us and it is the only one we have.

Help us making our event greener and greener. We must commit ourselves today to ensure a possible and liveable future.
