Every September, the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON brings together tens of thousands of runners from around the world to take on one of the most iconic marathon courses on the planet. Known for its fast course, electric atmosphere and unforgettable finish at the Brandenburg Gate, Berlin has become a global stage for personal bests, breakthrough performances and record-breaking moments.

Sabine Fimmel has been taking part in the BERLIN-MARATHON since 1984. This year, she will be lining up at the start for the 38th time. In this interview, she talks about how it all began with a running lap around Krumme Lanke, what has changed over the past decades, and why she still gets nervous before the start to this day.
