Die Generalprobe 2025 - Your marathon preparation rehearsal (Generalprobe)

Four weeks before the spectacular season highlight BMW BERLIN-MARATHON, you can hold your dress rehearsal for the ultimate discipline at the event “die Generalprobe”.

The half marathon on the 2-lap course through Berlin's neighbourhoods will be the perfect test of your preparation.

Your finish along the shopping mile Schlossstrasse in the center of Steglitz will prepare you for the last metres just past the Brandenburg Gate at the marathon.

Registration is possible online from December 5th, 2024.

Or are you more the easy-going type and want to enjoy the late summer afternoon in a relaxed manner? Then the 10.5 km loop might be just right for you. You will get to experience the urban running feeling, the motivation from the fans and the Cheering Zone just as intensively as those running the half marathon.

At the very beginning, the bambini can demonstrate their skills on distances between 500 and 1,000 metres.

At the event “die Generalprobe” on August 24, 2025, everyone will find their running joy.
