Well done Lizzie. When does reg for next years marathon open?
New registration system for the 2014 Berlin Marathon opens tomorrow Mon 30th Sep. However, there should be no rush as everyone will be able to pre-register (no fee) for a 2 week period, before a lottery system will select form the pre-registered list. At which time those selected will be given the option of paying the hefty sum of €100 for the pleasure of running the streets and suburbs of Berlin.
€100 is cheap compared to New York $347 for non Us residents - scandalous money!
