Mark Milde , race director real,- BERLIN-MARATHON
“We are happy that the 32. edition went through without complications. We had a new course record, Asian- and Japanese record by Mizuki Noguchi. But we also had three world records. First was the world record for blind runners by Regina Vollbrecht from Germany . Then we are happy to announce two world records by Mizuki Noguchi. She ran a new road race world record at 25 k as well as 30 k. We are very happy about that!”
Mizuki Noguchi, winner of real,- BERLIN-MARATHON and world record holder at 25 and 30 k and new course record holder as well as Asian- and Japanese record holder
„Yesterday I couldn’t realize what I did. This morning when I had a run I just started to realize what I have done yesterday.“
„I didn’t know about the 25 k world record until this morning. I realized during the race that I broke the 30 k world record, because my personal best for 30 k was 1:39:09 . I don’t know if I can be happy about it, because I know that Paula Radcliffe already had run faster. May be I was lucky to have run the BERLIN MARATHON.”
Philip Manyim, winner of real,- BERLIN-MARATHON
„Today, one day after the race, I feel okay. Sure here and there I have some pain, but that is normal after a marathon. Yesterday right after the race I called my family and they were very happy about my victory. Some training colleagues went to Eldoret to watch it live on TV. The victory at the real,- BERLIN-MARATHON opened new doors for me to run at other big marathon races.“
