Official 2023 Berlin Marathon Live Discussion Thread - 3:15 am ET (9:15 am in Berlin)

The depth through 35 km for men is insane at least 15 guys inside 2:05 pace. Alot can change tho

Assefa's pacer looks like he's gonna die.

Is that new adidas the reason she is totally destroying the WR? Mens race also not over yet...

He is no longer to claim that he has been in 2:07 shape or faster numerous times. He is a 2:10 marathoner and nothing more.

Assefa is grande

Yes, if he hasn't already

Assefa vs Ward. who will win

I'm thinking this too...

If kipchoge gets caught this would be a great advert for adidas and the inevitable adios pro 4 that incorporates the new foam

Chase group is only 200 meters behind

2:08:10 (2024 Olympic qualifying time) 2:26:50

Thinking the same. The market for very high end pacers just became larger.

Kipchoge should never went back to Berlin, imo, at least if we look at it from a pure legacy standpoint. All to loose, nothing to gain (if not world record ofcourse).

If the shoe helps, it's kinda poetic justice for the whole time the Vaporfly was out with no equivalent.

From a recent shot, it looks like Ward pulled a little ahead of Assefa and her pacer.

Holy smookeeees, I was paying attention to Kipchoge's attempt at going Sub 2 and failing that I JUST REALIZED the women's wr is 2 minutes ahead of pace!

Amos Kipruto is done. No Olympics for him.

Assefa should just follow king Ward instead

“I don’t think that me running in the 2:07s is a huge stretch of the imagination,” said Fauble, who has removed some of the hillier routes from his training under coach Joe Bosshard but has otherwise prepared similarly for Berlin as he would Boston or New York. “I think I’ve been in that kind of shape a bunch of times.”
