SUNDAY 27 SEPTEMBER 2026 · BERLIN
A Berlin Marathon poster, drawn from your own file.
Berlin is the fast one. Flat, closed, and lined the whole way — and the course where the world record has fallen more often than anywhere else. When you finish it, your watch holds the only version of that morning that is yours.

What we print
Your line, not the official course map. The route your watch recorded, with the numbers that were really in the file — your time, your pace, the elevation you actually covered. Nothing estimated.
Loose, or framed behind acrylic in a wooden frame. You choose the paper: Museum 250 gsm, uncoated archival matte, or Classic 170 gsm, uncoated matte. 30×40, 50×70 or 70×100 cm — loose at 70×100 is 250 gsm only.
Why a Berlin poster is worth having
Most people run Berlin once. The city is unusually generous about it — closed roads, a straight run at the Brandenburg Gate, and a course flat enough that the number on your watch is the number you were capable of that year.
That makes it a rare thing to hang: not a personal best you will beat next month, but a day with a shape to it.
From finish line to wall, in about four minutes
- Export the run from Strava, Garmin Connect, Coros or whatever your watch syncs to. GPX, TCX and FIT all work.
- Drop the file into the editor. It is read in your browser and never reaches us.
- Choose the motif, the size and which four numbers go on the sheet.
- We print it and post it. Two to four working days to make, then shipping on top.
Questions people actually ask
Can I get a poster of the official Berlin Marathon course?
No. We print the route your own watch recorded, not a copy of the organisers’ course map. Every print is therefore different, and we never redraw someone else’s data.
What file do I need?
GPX, TCX or FIT — zipped or not. Strava, Garmin Connect, Coros, Suunto and Polar all export one.
Will my hotel or home address be on it?
No. Before anything is drawn we clip a radius from both ends of the track. The default removes 500 metres at each end, and you can push it further. It never goes to zero.
Do you ship to Germany?
Yes. Printed at the facility closest to you, which for German orders is inside Germany, so there is no customs paperwork. Shipping is worked out from size, framing and address, and shown at checkout.
How long does it take?
Two to four working days to print, then three to eight working days across the EU.
