Huge congrats to @sabastiansawe for shattering the world record @londonmarathon and finally breaking the SUB-TWO barrier! 🤯⏱️ Welcome to a new era for marathon running 💥

The footage is from @berlinmarathon 2025—where it didn’t quite click. But yesterday? Yesterday, he turned that "not yet" into history. The limit is gone 🔥

Pure dominance from @tigist__assefa! 👏 She defends her @londonmarathon title and shatters her own women’s-only world record with a blistering 02:15:41 🤯

Throwing it back to the 2023 @berlinmarathon where she first shook the world 🥵 Fast forward to today: she keeps outrunning history🚀🔥

Berlin trauert um eine wahre Sportlegende: Günter Hallas, der Sieger des allerersten Berlin-Marathons, ist im Alter von 84 Jahren verstorben.

Hallas schrieb 1974 Geschichte, als er bei der Marathon-Premiere im Grunewald nach 42,195 Kilometern in einer Zeit von 2:44:43 Stunden als Schnellster von 244 Finishern durchs Ziel ging. Der gebürtige Spandauer, der für die TSV Siemensstadt startete, wollte eigentlich nie Profisportler werden; seine Fitness holte er sich ganz pragmatisch als Postbote beim Treppensteigen.

Aus dieser Fitness wurde eine lebenslange Leidenschaft: Fast 100 Marathons absolvierte er weltweit, darunter in New York und Hawaii. Den Berlin-Marathon bestritt er insgesamt 43-mal. Ein besonderer Höhepunkt blieb für ihn der Lauf im Jahr 1990 mit dem Einzug durch das Brandenburger Tor. Besonders beeindruckend: Pünktlich zum 50. Jubiläum des Rennens im Jahr 2024 ging er noch einmal an den Start und bewältigte die volle Distanz im Alter von 82 Jahren. Sein typischer Humor verließ ihn dabei nie: „Den ersten und den fuffzigsten machst du mit und dann ist Feierabend“, sagte er. Bis zuletzt blieb er durch Schwimmen im Tegeler See und Rennradfahren topfit.

Berlin nimmt Abschied. Adieu, Günter! 💙
