Runnerona started in 2020 as an invitation to run, walk, cycle (or a little bit of everything) through the beautiful Berlin Tiergarten. The 10.5 km route starts and ends in Brandenburger Tor and can be completed multiple times (e.g. x2 or x4) to run a Half-marathon or a Marathon.
In 2021 I formalised the running advice that I usually gave to the people that reached out to me and this is how the brand Runnerona evolved from a running event to a place where I share my running philosophy, advice, tips, training programme and events about this beautiful activity.

2020 Edition // Runnerona 10.5 km x 4
On August 1st, 2020 I organised, with the help of lovely people, the first edition of Runnerona. A small group of socially distanced runners ran 10.5 km, 21 km and 42 km in Berlin Tiergarten. It was fun! It was a way to come together, to move, and to connect with others and with nature in challenging times.

The route starts and ends in Brandenburger Tor. The route can be completed multiple times (e.g. x2 or x4) to run a Half-marathon, a Marathon, or 10.5 km.
