21.0975-km sightseeing tour. German capital
Last year 33,971 runners from 121 nations lined
up at the start.15,000 of them were running
the race for the first time – a new record, which
shows that running is regaining its popularity in
Germany after the pandemic years. Kenyan Alex
Kibet won the 2022 race in a time of 58:55
minutes, missing the course record by just 13
seconds. Runners are not the only ones setting
out on the half marathon course.

Last year 1042 inline skaters and 27 hand


cyclists and wheelchair athletes took part in
this mega event. The number of women runners
is steadily increasing and has now reached a
proud 40%. In the Bambini Run and KidsSkat-

It was only through a sports teacher’s advice
that she joined the local athletic club, Hawkhill

she was still only 17. She became self-coached

silver medal in the first-ever women’s Olympic

pregnant with her first child – Eilish was born
that November.

Liz hardly broke her training stride during the


pregnancy, with her last run only five days
before the birth and back up and racing again
only six weeks after. Her recovery took her to
even greater heights than before giving birth
as she finished third in the World Cross-Country
Championships in March and ran the second
fastest 10,000m ever (30:57) in June, which
stood as a Scottish record for 31 years.

This was all just setting the scene for the


standout performance of her track career in the
1991 World Championships in which she had an
emphatic win, lapping metronomically to finish
21 seconds ahead of her nearest rivals. Rather
than finish her track season she redoubled
training to make her marathon debut in New
York just three months later, and less than a year
since Eilish had been born. She won the race on
the famously tough course in a new record time
for a debut of 2:27:23.

Before the winners came through the


finish line at the Berlin Marathon on 25
September last year a small but histori-

there.

Paco Borao, President of the Association of


Marathons and Distance Races, handed over
a mile marker from the 1908 London Olympic
Marathon to the Mayor of Berlin, Franziska
Giffey, who in turn entrusted it to the curator of
the Marathoneum Berlin, Gerd Steins.

Running into history

The race stoked a marathon frenzy and ‘re-runs’


attracted huge betting interest. Pietri, Hayes
and various other contenders met up in many
different locations in the following years, both
indoors and outside, where the only constant
was the distance they had to run. This was
around the same time that the world governing
body of the sport, the International Amateur
Athletic Federation (IAAF, now World Athletics)
was formed in 1912. IAAF only got around to
formalising the Marathon distance in 1924 but
when they did they determined that it should be
the same as that run from Windsor to White City
in the 1908 Olympic Marathon.
