26 SEP 2010: BERLIN MARATHON - A RUNNER'S WORLD TRAVEL COLLECTION EVENT
Berlin has long been renowned for its slick organisation and fast course - which it certainly is at the elite end with a role of honour the includes the first sub-2.20 by a women, the first sub-2.05 and in 2007 we saw Haile Gebrselassie improve Paul Tergats mark with a new world best of 2.04.26......then, just to prove he is by far the best, Haile took the record under 2.04 in 2008. He won again 2009, but this time not with a world record - surely, sub-2 will come in the next generation of East Africans and probably in Berlin.
The event is just as good for those further down the field, with the route passing through famous and infamous districts on excellent roads and finally passing through the Brandenburg Gate, that symbol of the old divide between east and west to the finish 400m beyond.

Run this event for charity.
