The German capital and a small Cambridgeshire village were the destinations for Huntindon BRJ Run & Tri members last Sunday.
Robert Farrant and Marco Wassersleben were the two club runners who headed overseas to compete in the Berlin Marathon.
Farrant posted a new personal best of 3:15.32 while Wassersleben completed in 3:29.37.
Closer to home, a brilliant bunch of BRJ juniors took the top five stops in the Bourn 3k race.
William Dales (16) triumphed in a time of 8.51 to win an event with attracted 382 runners.
He came home 13 seconds clear of clubmate Reece Millard (16), who triumphed in a three-way BRJ battle for second spot.
Millard just pipped clubmate James Orrell (15) and Keelan Duffy (14) who finished third and fourth respectively in the same time of 9.06.
