"Going in..."? That's a good few minutes earlier than they start shitting and pissing in Paris. |

Berlin Marathon ballot is open until Nov 21st - €200 (without a T-Shirt) Chicago opened Tuesday - $255 (with a T-shirt) Have decided to do Chicago whatever happens as once I get it done in 2025 I then become a “Legacy” runner & can simply pop in a credit card number & enter without going via the ballot (5 finishes in 10 years - I have 5 finishes but my first was 2011). If I get in Berlin will be a quick trip juts for the race. Love the race having been to the City 6 times I can take or leave it. |

Found this site with German marathons results and further stats, thought it might interest some. marathon-ergebnis.de 2003 saw 163 marathons (over ten finishers) in Germany. Many of them with tiny numbers, I suspect 100 Marathon Klubbers. Lots more with 100, give or take. Local races for local people, as you can also see the German/Auslander split. The peak in German marathons was pre-pandemic with 269 recorded in 2016. 50% of all marathon finishes in Germany are at Berlin. Made-up fact! (Although: roughly 1 Berlin = finishers in the next 19.) marathon-ergebnis.de Hannover looks a decent bet for a non-Berlin fast time, and you'll get away from the tourists. The most German bigger marathon though must be the GutsMuths-Rennsteiglauf. Where's that? You'll have to look it up

Nice, that is interesting. Wasn’t there a year, possibly pre-Covid, that there was a marathon available every day in UK? And a large number (don’t know how many) SE area alone!
