Already secured a place in the event from the event organisers? Fantastic news! Let us know by emailing our friendly Supporter Engagement team at fundraising@crohnsandcolitis.org.uk, we’d love to have you as part of our team.

You will have access to all the same benefits as our charity place runners but can set your own fundraising pledge!

  • What happens if I can't reach my fundraising pledge target?

    When signing up for your chosen event with Crohn’s & Colitis UK, you agreed to the terms and conditions of raising the minimum fundraising target. 

    There is no obligation, whatsoever, to do so, but if you would prefer to personally contribute towards your sponsorship amount, we’re more than happy to accept personal donations.

    Struggling to hit your target? Try a simple fundraiser like a cake sale, raffle, or quiz night. These can really boost your total. 

    Your efforts matter. 1 in 123 people in the UK live with Crohn’s or Colitis, and every pound you raise helps fund vital research, support services, better care and faster diagnosis. 

    Need help or ideas? Get in touch—we're here to support you.

  • Where is the start/finish line?

    The start and finish line is on Straße des 17. Juni, near Bellevueallee. However, the entrance for runners is opposite the Reichstag building. Wheelchair users and handbikers can reach the start from the Siegessäule via the northern pedestrian path on Straße des 17.

    After the run there is a family meeting point in front of the Paul-Löbe-Haus with signs with the letters from A-Z.

    The full route map can be found on the event website here: The record-breaking course of the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON

  • Can I walk instead of run?

    There is nothing stopping you from walking, however some race organisers do have a cut off time for completion. 

  • Will there be bag drop facilities?

    Clothing drop-off is only possible for those participants who have booked the "clothing drop-off" when registering and have received a clothing bag and label with their bib number at the race material pick up.
