Jungfrau marathon 2012, Interlaken - Kleine Scheidegg

I came across the Jungfrau Marathon in Kleine Scheidegg yesterday. Kleine scheidegg is a tourist attraction, so it's always crowded with people in summer, but it was revelry in the marathon moreover.

The marathon starts at Interlaken (566m) and runs 42.195 kilometers to Kleine Scheidegg (2100m) through the highest point Eigergretscher (2205m). There is 1639m altitude difference.
Usually marathon has heart-breaking hill, but this marathon course is entire heart-breaking. I wonder if there would be participants for such hard marathon, but surprisingly it was fully booked!
