Running – for women, it wasn't always a given. As we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the VITAMIN WELL Women’s Race Berlin on May 17, we look back on this journey and honor the courage and endurance of the women who paved the way. Here, we introduce you to some of these inspiring pioneers.

The BMW BERLIN-MARATHON is an event that brings together athletes from all over the world - and there are always some extraordinary stories among the participants. One of these stories belongs to Niels Struckmeyer and his son Milan Pantel. Both are not only passionate runners, but also have a special father-son relationship, which they want to share for the first time this year on the course of the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON.

The BMW BERLIN-MARATHON requires mental strength and targeted training. With a positive mindset and clear planning, you can overcome your limits and reach your goal.

Scientists have long suspected that elite endurance athletes are more prone to upper respiratory infections. A striking pattern has emerged: acute infections often occur after intense exertion, demanding training phases, or competitions. One possible explanation for this phenomenon is the Open-Window Effect.

Zalando, one of Europe's leading online platforms for fashion and lifestyle, and the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON announce the expansion of their partnership. The BMW BERLIN-MARATHON is internationally recognized as one of the most prestigious running events. In September last year, its 50th edition saw 54,280 finishers, making it the world's largest marathon.

At the 50th BMW BERLIN-MARATHON today, 54,280 finishers were (verifiably) registered at the finish line. With this verified record result, the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON is now the largest marathon in the world, surpassing the events in Europe and America, which most recently claimed this record for themselves.
