To discover a metropolis in an active way with running shoes instead of sitting in crowded travel busses is no insider's tip anymore.
(OPENPRESS) If the route not only leads along important sights, but also offers the opportunity to enjoy the view together with many like-minded people, unforgettable moments are guaranteed. On October 13th 2013, the MUNICH MARATHON promises sightrunning on a high cultural level.
The course through Bavaria's capital displays the diversity of the metropolis: Start at the Olympiapark, green kilometres through the English Garden, modern scenery in Munich's east (starting here, also half marathon), along the Rosenheimer Street, then running past popular sights of the city, such as the Town Hall, Opera, Residenz, Pinakothek and Siegestor. The course could be taken out of a traveller's tour-guide book. Running along the Leopold Street, the cultural run ends in the Olympiapark. The tour's highlight for half marathon, marathon and relay runners is the finish in the Olympic Stadium — goose bumps at the end of a running sightseeing together with thousands of like-minded people.
And those who are not planning on setting a personal track record can enjoy the MUNICH MARATHON with all its great aspects. Spending a few more days in the city is a great chance to see the previous impressions a second time, in a slower pace.

About the MUNICH MARATHON
Since 2000, the MUNICH MARATHON has been organised by runabout MÃNCHEN MARATHON GmbH. The traditional running event takes place every year, always one week after the Oktoberfest, and is one of Germany's Top 5 marathon events. Up to 20,000 runners participate every year. The track leads along the most important sights of the Bavarian capital, and ends with the finish at the Munich Olympic Stadium. The program around the run consists of a mar-athon exhibition (two days) in the Event-Arena at the Olympiapark with about 45,000 visitors, a pasta party and an international Trachtenlauf (traditional costume run) one day before the marathon.
