BMW Berlin Marathon 2017
The Berlin Marathon is one of the six Marathon Majors and thus on of the largest and most prestigous marathon on the globe. It started at 09.15 AM and with a superb elite field on both the male and female side and the event was – as always in Berlin – supported by hundreds of thousands of spectators in the streets along the entire course in the german capital. Too bad the weather was quite a bit off. However, the race was superbly organized and obviously a marathon to revisit.

Tallinn Marathon 2017

Sunday September 10th 2017 I completed the Tallinn Marathon. Find below my full race coverage plus some tourist impressions from the Estonian capital.

Tallinn City
Tallinn City includes the picturesque Old Town – which is on the UNESCO World Heritage list – and a number of landmarks bound for tourists such as the Toompea Hill which amongst other things features the spot where the danish flag Dannebrog fell down from heaven in year 1219. As a dane, this landmark was mandatory, of course.

Tallinn Marathon 2017
The Tallinn Marathon started at 09.00 in the city centre and featured a route that folded back onto itself quite a few times. A few landmarks were passed but the course did not cover land in the Old Town of Tallinn, which I consider to be very sad. The race was very well organized but you should not attend this event due to the sights during the run, but perhaps considering the entire bucket of offers in the beautiful city of Tallinn.

Helsingborg Marathon 2017
The Helsingborg Marathon started at 10.00 AM in the morning and in great weather too. The race course covered a tiny but important part of the city center, cf. the photo above, and headed southwards for about 7 km. The route then folded back towards Helsingborg and beyond and passed a number of landmarks in the area including the famous Sofiero Castle before concluding the race at the brink of Oeresund in a spectacular manner.

The race was superbly organized and for sure a marathon to revisit. Thus, I will give it my very best recommendation.
