In recent years the Vienna City Marathon has succeeded in creating a unique position as a marathon event on the international scene. It offers participants a very different experience to what they can find elsewhere around the world. The “VCM” gives you the chance to experience the marathon in a unique way. The reason why it’s extraordinary is because that’s in keeping with the city of Vienna itself and because the organising team bring such passion and creativity to their work to make the Vienna City Marathon outstanding.

Slow down you crazy child,
And take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while,
It’s alright you can afford to lose a day or two,
When will you realize,
Vienna waits for you.

Vienna was my favorite city by far. First off, there were tons of adorable coffee shops with delicious drinks, chocolate and pastries that were and still appear to be frequented by Vienna’s intellectuals. The cafes contained wifi, newspaper racks of the daily papers, and big comfy chairs all in a new-baroque, domed belle of a building. I was in love

Secondly, the city contains the Imperial Palace, seat of the former Hapsburg empire (Marie Antoinette’s fam). This means that the city has a tradition of being the seat of international culture. Vienna is the perfect mix of westernized (read: familiar, English speaking) and uniquely foreign and, thus, interesting. 

Of all the cities, Vienna is one that I could see myself coming back to. There was this intangible aspect that just made me feel at home there.
