Kipchoge returns on September 25 to the same city where he set a new world record of 2:01:39 in the men’s 42km road race in 2018.
“When I think of Berlin, I think of a flat course. I am thinking of the fastest course in the world. I am thinking that it is the only place whereby a human being can show his or her own potential of pushing the limits,” Kipchoge, who is the only person to run a marathon under two hours, said. ” Kipchoge said.
A win for Kipchoge in Berlin would be his fourth crown in this World Marathon Majors race, having emerged victorious in 2015, 2017 and 2018.
