I have completed Berlin. This was a fantastic experience for me as it was my first marathon. It was not hard to gain entry, if I remember right I applied in May for a September place and I don't think it ever sold out. This is like a tourist dream... If you like history you will love this Marathon. You go through all of the famous landmarks starting on the Unter Den Linden and looping around the city ending at the Brandenberg Gate. 10/10
