RUNNING GERMANY – Welcome to the Haspa Marathon Hamburg 2012!

On the 29th April 2012 it will be happening again: together we will celebrate the Haspa Marathon Hamburg in the Hanseatic city on the Elbe – this season it’s the 27th time!

Apart from many advantages for each individual competitor, we are for the first time running a Team Relay event. Four relay runners can each run a section of the 42.195 km course and as a team, complete the Original Haspa Marathon Hamburg.  Also, adults can now, as do the younger categories run the ZEHNTEL (one tenth distance) over 4.2195 km on Saturday, 28th April 2012. 

Entries are open from 1st November 2011 for the team relay and from 1st February 2012 for the ZEHNTEL.

Highlights of the course

• Start on the Reeperbahn, Hamburg’s sinful mile, towards Altona

• Following the western turning point in Othmarschen,
the splendid Elbchaussee leads the runners back to the Harbour, the Gateway to the World

• Along the St Pauli landing stage, the modern Harbour City with the Elbe Philharmonic Hall comes into sight

• After traversing the Wallring tunnel, the athletes are sent along the inner Alster through the heart of the Hanseatic city

• Along the feudal east bank of the inner Alster you get to the Stadtpark – Hamburg´s green lung – which adjoins the architectonically interesting North City

• The route moves on to the “Witches Cauldron” Eppendorfer Baum: here traditionally the athletes are cheered on by tens of thousands of frenetic spectators

• Once past the 40 km mark, the finish in the Rotherbaum district can be sensed

• Made it! Finish on Glacischaussee
