I heard Prezelle was definitely cancelled this year?

You're missing Bonn, Duisberg & Duesseldorf which all have their dates set and you can register for them.

Hmm, Any chance we can do some sort of spreadsheet or something with people Interest on races ?

I want to do a few more races than last year but don't want to do the ones where nobody goes ...

Will do. Just got confused becase you listed Wilhelmshaven and the Berlin half marathon which were already in the event calendar.

City Night is a 10km race up and down Kurfuerstendamm. Start and Finish is at the Gedaechtnis-Kirche (the bombed out church between the Zoo station and the KaDeWe).
It is rather a running event with the skaters up front, but a fun thing to do BECAUSE it is so short. If you are really fast, you can do a double feature : first skate, then run the 10k, although I am not sure if there is an official double starter status like at the Berlin Marathon.

If you consider doing this race, plan a rather long weekend and go to the flaeming-skate to do some real long distance black ice skating. I cannot stress it enough, you guys would love it Rolling Eyes
