BERLIN MARATHON

The 50th edition of the BMW Berlin Marathon will take place on the 29th of September 2024 and Free to Run is pleased to announce our participation as a charity partner!

The BMW Berlin Marathon is one of the 6 World Marathon Majors; it follows a spectacular route through historic Berlin, Germany finishing at the iconic Brandenburg Gate. The world record has been broken 11 times on the Berlin course and as one of the flattest major courses in the world, the BMW Berlin Marathon attracts many runners aiming for their very own personal bests. Owing to its status as a fantastic race, entrance to the Marathon sells out every year and 2024 certainly won’t be an exception. Guarantee a bib by committing to run as part of the Free to Run team!

As a Free to Run Berlin Marathon Runner, you will receive a number of benefits including:

  • Guaranteed, complimentary entry for the 2024 BMW Berlin Marathon

  • Fundraising support to help you surpass your goal, including help setting up your personalized online fundraising page
