Marathon routes in Germany

Berlin is Germany's race and the fastest of the seven. The course is flat, wide and almost entirely asphalt, and both course records were world records when they were set, which is why it is known as the record course. Start and finish flank the Brandenburg Gate, and the race runs in late September.
