Bremen Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool conditions, strategic pacing needed
Runners will face a temperature rise from 53°F at the start to 62°F by the finish, with humidity around 73%. A steady crosswind will challenge runners throughout most of the course, particularly from miles 1-4 and 18-27, while headwinds will affect pacing from miles 5, 17, and 21. Adjustments in pacing are essential, especially during headwind sections, to conserve energy for the tailwind segments.

Race Info
The Bremen Marathon starts and finishes at the Marktplatz in the city center. The marathon course runs through the Neustadt district and past the Werdersee before continuing through Bürgerpark and Findorff, then follows the Weser river along the Schlachte promenade past the Weserstadion on the way back downtown. The event also includes a half marathon, 10K, and marathon relay on the same day. The 2026 edition moved to September 13 instead of its usual early-October date because Bremen hosted national German Unity Day events around October 3; the race returns to its traditional first-Sunday-in-October date in 2027.
