How did the composition of participants (domestic vs. international) affect the overall economic impact of the marathon?

The marathon's economic impact is substantial, with tourist spending generating €5.9 for every euro spent on organization. The influx of mostly foreign participants (63% of total) significantly boosted tourist spending by 23.2% compared to 2023, despite a slight decrease in overall runners. This growth is largely attributed to higher daily spending by international participants (€194.7 vs €161.1 for national participants).
