About the Rursee Marathon
The marathon is the longest race in a multi-day running weekend based in Einruhr. Its reservoir setting and local-club organization attract runners looking for a scenic, demanding autumn route.
Course
The loop follows the undulating shoreline and surrounding Eifel terrain on a mix of paved roads and firm paths. Frequent climbs and descents make it much slower than a flat road marathon.
Race-day weather
November in the Eifel is often cold, damp, and overcast. Rain, fallen leaves, and wind across open water can make footing and temperature management difficult.
