2024: Preview

Over 36,000 people from 134 nations are registered. Germany's aces, like Melat Kejeta and Samuel Fitwi, are using the marathon as a readiness test for the Olympic marathon in Paris, are hoping to qualify for the half marathon at the European Athletics Championships in Rome and are even aiming for the European record. The 43rd GENERALI BERLIN HALF MARATHON promises to be a huge sports festival to open the 2024 running season on the streets of the capital. And for the first time, it will be part of the "SuperHalfs"—a series of six top European half marathon races in Germany, Spain, Denmark, Portugal, Great Britain and the Czech Republic. In this digital event magazine, you will find all the information about Germany's biggest half marathon, which will take place in Berlin on 7 April 2024. We are not only presenting the favourites, but also people have their own special motivations for running their half marathons. Of course, it includes all the dates, the best photos from previous years and a preview of what runners and spectators can expect on the half marathon weekend in the capital, as well as lots of tips for the race and the supporting programme in Berlin.
