Course Record and New National Marks at the Berlin Half Marathon

The results underscore how Berlin's fast course is remaking national record books.

Overview

  • Likina Amebaw, who raced Sunday in Berlin, won the women's title in 1:05:07 to break the course record.
  • Kenya's Andrea Kiptoo took the men's race in 59:11, while Germany's Amanal Petros placed third in 59:22 to set a national record.
  • Spain's Carla Gallardo ran 1:08:30 for eighth place to lower the national record that Kaoutar Boulaid set at 1:08:47 in 2024.
  • Peru's Sheyla Eulogio clocked 1:10:03 for 18th to surpass Zaida Ramos's 1:10:05 mark from last May in Lima.
  • Berlin's flat route and pacers help produce fast splits, which is why the race often yields record runs across deep international fields.
