The breathing is calm and even, the movement goes as if by itself and from there on you seem to be able to run endlessly. The body is relaxed, the mind is free and a flow experience develops, a state of relaxed concentration in which you are one with your body.

Throughout Germany, smaller and larger cities organise marathon events all year round in which anyone can participate. With the right preparation, at least a half marathon is doable for everyone. And the right fashion is also available...
