The Vienna Marathon is becoming more and more important in the international marathon calendar. The Vienna City Marathon has been run since 1984 and is known for its beautiful route right through the beautiful city. For instance, the runners run past the main attractions of the city to the finish at Heldenplatz, where an enthusiastic crowd welcomes the runners. The course is mostly flat, with only a few differences in altitude. Is the Vienna Marathon still a bit too long? Then the half marathon or the 10 km on Saturday are also an option.

The day before the marathon. There are no specifics planned for this day. The only thing that has to be done is to pick up the bib number. The rest of the day can be filled in as you wish. Of course, Vienna has a lot to offer in terms of history, culture and classical music. The many sights confirm this. Schönbrunn Palace, Ottakringer Brewery, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Strandbarr Herrmann, the baroque Belvedere Castle or the Prater are just a few examples. This is just a small selection of the total sights. Of course it is wise to take the effort in mind for tomorrow. A good sports meal is of course the most crucial.
