More than 10,000 runners have already registered for the SwissCityMarathon - Lucerne. More than 8,500 participants have registered for the half marathon and the 10K category. Therefore only a few places are still available. The organisers recommend all athletes who have not yet registered to do so as soon as possible so as not to miss the Lucerne running event in autumn. The figures for the marathon category over 42,195 km are also very pleasing: With more than 1200 runners, the registration figures are 2% higher than last year.

Warm-up with Tadesse Abraham
When the starting signal for the marathon and half marathon in Haldenstrasse is given on Sunday, 27 October at 9 a.m., the fastest marathon runner in Switzerland, Tadesse Abraham, will prepare the runners for the run with a warm-up between 8.15 and 8.45 a.m. Abraham, who last week ranked among the top 10 in the world at the World Championships in Athletics in Doha, will send the runners as honorary starters on time at 9 a.m. on the beautiful course along Lake Lucerne, through the centre of Horw and back to Lucerne.
