About the challenge
The Berlin Marathon gives you the chance to run on a world record breaking course – it's fast and flat. The run takes in the major attractions of this fantastic city including the Charlottenburg Castle and the grand historical architecture that line the streets of Berlin.
From the thousands of supporters and bands lining the route to the bananas and tea at each drink station, I enjoyed every minute. Finishing under the Brandenburg Gate I felt such a sense of achievement - an amazing place to run my first marathon.
