    I'm down for it. Though a cold the past two weeks has put the brakes on a bit
    I'd planned it as a nice, sightseeing run but then the voices started.....

    I am planning to run there. Coming from elsewhere in Germany.
    But would be glad to meet up on day/evening before.

    Yes also heading ..excited about the prospect of a fast course and after the wind in DCM last year a calmer run. Anyone run this before? Wonder how quicker can it be to DCM? Hoping for a 2+ min pb

    I've heard people say it's 2-4 mins 'quicker' than Dublin, flat but quite a lot of cornering at the city end with some cobble stones to contend with at the beginning and end.
    Probably just behind Berlin in terms of finishing times albeit with a much smaller field. I think weather could be the biggest factor.

    Pervious Thread.
