Why run it?

Recognised as one of the most famous races across the globe, the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON boasts spectacular views, with the flat course running through the historic capital. Famous sights include the iconic Brandenburg Gate directly before the finish line for a photo finish. Part of the Abbott World Marathon Majors, this event has played host to several world records but with its optimum running conditions, it’s perfect for beginners and elite runners alike. The ballot is now complete, but you can still be part of this unmissable event in 2026.
