One of the six World Marathon Majors and the course that has produced more world records than any other in marathon history. The route passes the German capital's most important landmarks - the Victory Column, the Reichstag, and Checkpoint Charlie - before finishing at the Brandenburg Gate. More than 45,000 runners from around the world take the start line, and the near-perfectly flat, fast course draws world-class elites chasing records. It's one of the six races that count toward the prestigious Six Star Finisher title.
