Berlin Marathon is the most famous fast track in the world. The world record of men's marathon 2:01:39 was created by Kipchoge in Berlin in 2018. Since 1990, the world record for men's marathon has been rewritten in Berlin nine times.
Coincidentally, the five male elites in the list of elite contestants released by the organizing committee are all from Ethiopia, and they are also the only five players on the list with PB within 2:05:00. Since 2010, only in 2016, Beckel won the Berlin Marathon championship for Ethiopia with a score of 2:03:03, and the championships in the rest of the years were all controlled by Kenyans.
This time, Kipchoge, who monopolized Berlin in the past two years, has hanged the free battle card. Whether the Ethiopian Legion led by Beckler can recover lost ground has become a hot topic before the game.
At 15:15 pm Beijing time on September 29 (9:15 local time in Berlin), the 2019 Berlin Marathon started.
race pace did not slow down due to the absence of defending champion Kipchog. The Ethiopian Legion led by Beckler is still moving in the game according to world records.
After 25 kilometers in the second half, the "Rabbit" left the field. Beckler fell down at 30km, and 38km caught up with the first place and overtook. In the last 5 kilometers, the 37-year-old Beiye staged the return of the king, and the 40 kilometers took 1:50:30.
In the end, Bekele from Ethiopia won the men's championship of the 2019 Berlin Marathon with a time of 2:01:41, almost breaking the world record with a difference of 2 seconds.
As for the Chinese players who are most looking forward to, they abandon the World Championships to participate in the Pak Ma, and are determined to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics. Veteran Dong Guojian and newcomer Peng Jianhua are undoubtedly the focus of everyone's attention.
After starting, the two of them ran together. It takes 29:30 for two people for 10 kilometers, 59:18 for 20 kilometers, and 62:34 for half a trip. Half-time time has already broken the national record of men's half-time that Dong Guojian has maintained for ten years (21-year-old Dong Guojian once ran a national record of men's half-time that 1:02:51 in the 2009 Yangzhou Half-Marathon).
This half-time result is far better than Ren Longyun's first half of the 2007 North Horse Race ran 2 hours, 8 minutes and 16 seconds national marathon record.
After half a trip, Peng Jianhua dropped a little. Dong Guojian took 1:14:32 at 25 kilometers, and Peng Jianhua lags 29 seconds, taking 1:15:01. Dong Guojian took 1:29:58 at 30 kilometers, and Peng Jianhua took 1:32:07 at slight speed. At this time, Dong Guojian's 30 kilometers score was still a supranational record. After
30 kilometers, Dong Guojian walked forward alone, taking 1:45:26 for 35 kilometers and 2:01:22 for 40 kilometers. In the end, Dong Guojian fought to the end and ran 2:08:28, won the seventh place for men, successfully meeting the Olympic men's marathon standard, realizing his dream of the Olympics.
This result refreshed the best results of the Chinese men's marathon overseas in 2 hours, 10 minutes and 28 seconds by Inner Mongolia runner Hu Gangjun in the 1994 Rotterdam International Marathon.
at the same time almost broke the record of China's marathon with an 8-second difference, making Dong Guojian the creator of the second best result of the Chinese men's marathon and the fourth Chinese to run into 210. At that time, in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, China will send two athletes, Dong Guojian and Dobujie, to compete in the Olympics together.

Dong Guojian
Don't beggar
Hands of fate, veteran
Vehicle Dong Guojian As a banner of China's medium and long-distance running , he has experienced troughs in the past three years, has developed retirement, and then made a comeback to realize his dream of the Olympics.
He is 32 years old this year and sets an example for himself and the young Chinese players.
2016 Chongqing International Marathon and Olympic Trials, Dong Guojian ran a personal PB of 2 hours, 11 minutes and 42 seconds, and qualified for the Rio Olympics with this result.
2017 Tianjin National Games men's marathon, Dong Guojian won the championship in high temperature weather. It was at this time that he had the idea of retirement.
Entered the 2018 season, and Dong Guojian, whose condition has not decreased but increased, still maintains a good competitive state.In the 2018 Xuzhou Marathon and Asian Games Trials, he won the championship by winning the final stage and represented China in the men's marathon event at the Jakarta Asian Games. The term "Late-achieving" is really appropriate to describe Dong Guojian.
Look at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics war is imminent, and Dong Guojian can realize his Olympic dream again. At the 2019 Xuzhou Marathon and World Championships trials, I ran with all my strength and achieved the second best result of 2 hours, 12 minutes and 09 seconds, but failed to meet the standards.
Olympic standards and Dobujie's early compliance with the standards deeply stimulated Dong Guojian. Dong Guojian ran the third best result of 2 hours, 12 minutes and 34 seconds in the 2019 Wuhan Marathon. After that, Dong Guojian went to Africa with the team to participate in training camps to prepare for this year's Baima.
Finally, hard work pays off. Veteran Dong Guojian's persistence was not in vain and he successfully met the Olympic men's marathon standards.

Go out and run out of China WAY!
Chinese elites fight in Berlin, letting the Chinese people shine in the speed of the Berlin track!
veteran Dong Guojian met the Olympic standards, which proves that China's overall level of medium and long-distance running is gradually improving, proving that Chinese elites need to go out and compete with the strong.
At the same time, the performance of the Chinese people also allows us to see the persistence and breakthrough of veterans and the hard work of newcomers. The older generation of middle- and long-distance running people led a large number of young athletes to compete for the long-lost "bloodiness" of the Chinese middle- and long-distance running teams, winning respect and applause.
Because of the rise of a new generation of young forces, it has injected fresh blood into China's medium- and long-distance running, allowing more Chinese people to have more expectations for future competitions and development of running circles. It is also because of the company of the older generation of athletes that these lonely and lonely years are not so deserted.
This is the joint efforts made by Chinese athletes and is also a beautiful vision created by the Chinese sports brand - XP. They adhere to the spirit of craftsmanship, focus on their hearts, work hard, and do every detail to the extreme. It is their dedicated efforts that allow athletes to devote themselves to the marathon track without any worries and devote themselves to the best self.
Similarly, we also believe that the 2019 Berlin Marathon will only be a node for China's speed to take off, and will slowly develop into a root system with our joint efforts. Converge and condense with important nodes that are happening or are about to happen in the future, create our own historical chapter, and run into the real Chinese WAY!
