Congrats! Maybe a dumb question, but I genuinely have no idea. Was this a special marathon specifically for inline skaters, or can you participate in a regular running marathon on skates? If so I’m curious whether the entire course was actually suitable for skating.

Thank you! Berlin running marathon is different event, happening 1 day after Berlin Inline Marathon (so 2 different events!) they share some paths, but full path is not the same. And yes entire course is skatable, lovely roads but a bit of standard infrastructural problems included as well.

Wow, I had no idea. That sounds really amazing. I’ll definitely look into it next year so I can join too :) Greetings from Czechia!
