Berlin Marathon
Berlin Marathon is a flat marathon in Berlin, Germany, held each September. One of the flattest and fastest major courses in the world — wide avenues and gentle corners. Usually mild early-autumn conditions, around 10-18C. On a course as flat as Berlin Marathon, even splits are everything; the classic mistake is banking time in the first third.
