From 1994 to 2003, in addition to the "normal" marathon, the unusual form of a double marathon was offered: two marathons within 24 hours with an overall ranking. On the night of December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000, the last marathon worldwide of 1999 and the first of the new year in Europe took place on the Stüder route under the title "Millennium Run". The race attracts participants from quite a long distance: the course records have been held since 1995 in the Andrzej Nowak marathon from Poland and in the Paul Houston double marathon from Brisbane / Australia .
