Volksbank Münster Marathon

"Anytime again" - that is the feedback we often hear from our runners. What is so special about the Volksbank-Münster-Marathon? Runners sum it up as follows: "Short distances, very good organization, family environment, spectators with good spirit, friends and family can see you several times along the race course, great motivational quotes at each kilometer, transition boxes for the relay runners are not disturbing for the marathon runners, many artists along the race course." "A huge sport- and cultural event with an unmatched finish line at the historical Prinzipalmarkt within the city centre." Once again there will be themed power points, around 300 artists and bands and over 100,000 spectators along the entire route. The special enthusiasm of the audience, which literally drives the runners in all competitions, is phenomenal. Within Germany the Volksbank-Muenster-Marathon was ranked as the seventh most liked marathon and it is also amongst the Top Ten of the most favoured marathons in Germany, Austria and Swizerland. Since July 2012 the Volksbank-Muenster-Marathon has been an official member of AIMS (the Association of International Marathons and Distant Races) joining in the over 350 worldwide events in 101 countries. The city of Muenster is known for its famous thrillers "Tatort" and "Wilsberg" which are broadcasted on TV. Part of the race course is directly bypassing these scenic film locations. Feelings of happiness, the festive atmosphere and the experience of a marathon are not the only unique features of this noteworthy race.
