Our 2024 Berlin Marathon Preview!
Manage episode 441930521 series 3571750
Our editors Alex, Katelyn and Michael break down everything you need to know about this Sunday's Berlin Marathon, including how to live stream the race, key storylines, a bit of the fascinating history of the marathon, and who will win each race. They discuss the significance of the 50th anniversary of the Berlin Marathon, its ranking as a World Marathon Major, why so many marathon world records have been achieved on this course, and the legacy of both Eliud Kipchoge and Kenenisa Bekele at the race. 2024 marks the first time in 11 years that the Berlin Marathon will not feature either Kipchoge (the 2022 and 2023 champion) or Bekele.
After last year's world record performance in Berlin by Tigst Assefa, will the 2024 edition of the marathon feature a new breakout star and a record breaking run? Our editors weigh in on who might win in Berlin, and the outlook of elite marathon running in the next few years.
