Return your thermal blanket
Please only use a thermal blanket if you are cold and really need it.
Please always return used blankets the numerous recycling helpers (labelled with a flag). This is the only way to turn it back into foil.
Use your own hydration system
Avoid cups by bringing your own hydration system and using our refill stations.
Otherwise, throw used cups into the specially labelled bins so that they can be returned to the cycle.
Offset your flight emissions
Many participants have to travel to and from the race by plane. By offsetting your flight emissions, you help to reduce the environmental footprint of the event.
Use public transport - free of charge!
On the day of the event, it is best to use public transport, which is free with your bib number (from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. in fare zone AB).
Travel by train
If you can, come to Berlin by train and use the most environmentally friendly way of travelling. Good to know: We have set up an event ticket with Deutsche Bahn for your discounted journey!
If you cannot travel by train, consider forming a carpool instead.
Run for a good cause
Register for the GENERALI BERLIN HALF MARATHON through one of our charity partners such as the WWF and combine your run with a fundraising campaign.
Donate clean clothing in good condition in the pre-start area
On race day, you can first put on your well-preserved running and training clothes as a warming layer and then hand them over to the Berliner Stadtmission (Berlin City Mission). This will benefit unhoused people.
Donate your worn-out, clean running shoes
Bring your worn-out, well-preserved running shoes to the EXPO and donate them to the Berliner Stadtmission (Berlin City Mission) at their stand. This will help people in need and unhoused.
