MARATHON has been part

MARATHON has been part of the international Super- Halfs series, which fosters a strong sense of community and inspires runners to reach their full potential. No half marathon in Europe brings together so many people of different nations and cultures — and you are right at the heart of it. More and More Women at the Start We are particularly proud of the steadily increasing proportion of women — now exceeding 40 percent and rising for years — of the strong support from the younger running community, and of the outstanding athletic performances repeatedly achieved here: the course records rank among the very best in the world. In 2025, Fotyen Tesfay shattered the previous record of the GENERALI BERLIN HALF MARATHON. The Ethiopian crossed the finish line at the Brandenburg Gate in 63:35 minutes, improving the former record by more than one and a half minutes.

This low-threshold offering allows young and old, rookies and seasoned athletes alike to experience the spirit of the finish on Straße des 17. Juni together. Movement at every stage of life Of course, we will continue to host the Bambini Run as usual at the EXPO venue, the former Tempelhof Airport. Our mission is to “inspire people at every stage of life to enjoy being active.” From Competition to Experience Over its 45-year history, the GENERALI BERLIN HALF MARATHON has evolved into what it is today, with an ever-growing focus on service and quality. What once began as a sporting competition has become a holistic experience, placing the needs of all participants at its heart. With continuously increasing field sizes, this aspiration is becoming ever more significant: it is no longer just about times and rankings, but about special moments along the course, about personal experiences, and about sha- - 11 -
