2024 was the 50th anniversary of the Berlin Marathon with great celebrations and party atmosphere.
-
The start pens were a bit chaotic and runners were starting in pens well above their pace which meant congestion and having to pass people for most of the race.
-
First marathon or a nice weekend away. Berlin is a super fun city and very easy to get around. The course and conditions generally support a PB.
-
Don’t be conservative on your race time on the entry. Order the poncho, the drop bag process can be time consuming on race morning.
-
You get free public transport for the weekend with your race entry which is a nice touch.
