Kenya’s Eliud Kipchoge has shattered his own marathon world record, winning the Berlin event with a time of two hours, one minute and nine seconds.
The 37-year-old’s finishing time to win the race on Sunday was some 30 seconds faster than his previous world-best mark, set in the German capital four years ago.
Kipchoge has now won 15 of his 17 career marathons, including two Olympic triumphs and 10 major titles. He was in a class of his own here, setting a blistering pace along the flat, fast inner-city course from the start on an overcast day.
