Cheer at the Berlin Marathon this Weekend

Wednesday September 24, 2008

This weekend, the center of Berlin becomes a race track: The 35th Berlin Marathon takes place on Sunday, September 28th, starting at 9 a.m.

Great spots to watch and cheer for the runners are at Potsdamer Platz and at the finish line, the Brandenburg Gate. There will also be lots of street concerts, performances, and food stalls to keep you entertained. But the best thing of all: Enjoy and wander the streets of Berlin without any cars.


Check out the course map on the website of the Berlin Marathon.
