Berlin Marathon 2017

By Chris Dinsdale

September 24, 2016 - Starting and finishing at the Brandenburg Gate, the Berlin Marathon attracts over 40,000 athletes and over one million spectators from all over the world. The annual event is part of the World Marathon Majors, and many world records have been set on Berlin’s fast, flat course. Ethiopia’s Kenenisa Bekele and Kenyans Eliud Kipchoge and Wilson Kipsang head the field this year in an attempt to eclipse the current world record time of 2:02:57, set by Kenya’s Dennis Kimetto in 2014.
