Running Retreat

Philipp Pflieger's passion for running dates back to his childhood. Over the course of his career, he has become a 14-time German champion in various running events on the track, cross-country, and road. His greatest success came in 2016 when he was the best German marathon runner at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. He has always enjoyed sharing his passion for the sport with others, even during the tough times of his competitive career. Through social media, his podcast “BESTZEIT,” and his book “Laufen am Limit,” he has invited endurance sports fans into his world, where it sometimes came down to a matter of seconds over the magical 42.195 kilometers, explained how setbacks made him stronger, and why everyone should follow their sporting dreams.
