Berlin Marathon Shake Out Run

To help us plan events more effectively, we kindly ask that you register for each event you wish to attend. Registration is handled via our Strava Club. If you’d like to join spontaneously, that’s usually fine—however, please note that athletes who have registered will have priority. For certain events, especially seminars, coaching sessions, etc., registration may be mandatory. This will be clearly indicated on the event page.

General Rules

• Mutual respect is the foundation of every session—regardless of performance level or experience.
• Fun comes first. There are no winners in our group sessions—everyone starts and finishes together.
• Participation is at your own risk. No unnecessary risks—everyone should get home safely.
• Consideration for others is essential—no one is “too slow,” and no one is left behind.
• Follow the coaches’ lead—they set the pace and route, and their instructions must be followed during events.

Group Runs

• Hand signals and clear communication are important when running—for example, to indicate obstacles or changes in direction.
• Pacers set the pace and structure—they are not to be overtaken.
• Participants must ensure they are visible (e.g., reflective clothing or headlamp in low-light conditions).

Group Rides

• Traffic laws must be followed without exception.
• Helmets are mandatory—no helmet, no participation.
• Ride no more than two abreast—and only if traffic conditions allow.
• Single file immediately in case of oncoming traffic, narrow roads, or poor visibility.
• Hand signals and early, clear communication are mandatory—especially when braking, turning, or pointing out hazards.
• Each rider is responsible for bringing their own repair kit, food, and enough fluids—self-sufficiency is part of the sport.
• Visibility is essential: in low light, darkness, or poor conditions, front and rear lights must be used.

Unless stated otherwise on the event page, our events (especially group runs and rides) are free for everyone. We look forward to spending a great time with you! Prices for other events can be found on the respective event pages.
