Berlin Marathon 2027: Qualifying Times<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can get into the Berlin Marathon 2027<\/strong> through the lottery, but also with a marathon time you have already run. Below you will find the required times, the rules for proving your result and the entry deadline.<\/p>\n

Qualifying Times for Berlin 2027<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The required time depends on gender and year of birth. The most lenient standard applies to runners born in 1967 or earlier.<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How to Prove Your Result<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You upload your proof in your user account during registration, and every qualifying detail must be clearly visible on it.<\/p>\n

What Happens After You Apply?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Applying with a time does not guarantee a start. You will hear whether your entry was accepted or declined after the documents are checked, right after the lottery results are announced. If your proof is judged invalid, your entry goes into the general lottery.<\/p>\n

Qualifying with a time is only one way in. In a separate article I cover both entry with a qualifying time and the other ways of getting a place on the Berlin start line.<\/p>\n

How to Register for the Berlin Marathon 2027<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Before you start your registration, check that your result comes from a race that meets the conditions above. A time from the wrong race, or one older than two years, will not count.<\/p>\n
