Gebrselassie Gebrselassie smashes world marathon record

The Ethiopian stopped the clock at 2:04:26 and improved in 29 seconds the record set by Kenyan Paul Tergat in 2003

30/09/2007 Updated at 22:10 pm Berlin. (EFE) .- The Ethiopian Haile Gebrselassie broke the world record by running the marathon distance in 2:04:26 in Berlin. Gebrselassie improved brand of Kenyan Paul Tergat, who had run the same route in 2003 Berlin in 2:04:55. The Ethiopian had attempted to improve the world record in Berlin last year, but in the last four miles against the wind cut off the pace and had to postpone its target. This year the conditions were better, as Gebrselassie himself said at the end of the race. "The weather was better, had more public on the way and there was less wind, "said Gebrselassie, who believes that above all the public helped to impose the new brand." I have to thank the public, the public was what led me to the finish, "said Ethiopian. Gebrselassie's intention was to impose a better record than that achieved. "I wanted to be between 2:03 and 2:04. At the end I was a little slower and I have to apologize to the public, "the Ethiopian said wryly. The first kilometers of the race and showed that the goal of breaking the world record was serious. Gebrselassie broke the group since the beginning and passing km 2 and only around five hares. hares were a quartet of Kenyan estate, Wilson Kiger, Peter Kiprotich, Andrew Limo and Rodgers Rop (winner of the marathon in New York) and the Ethiopian Eshetu Wondimu. I passed 5 km in 14:43. The pace was a world record. It ran for 2:04, ie 55 seconds to improve on Paul Tergat's record. At this rate, the danger was that he was running too fast the first half of the race. Either by prudence or because forces hare not reached, the rate fell slightly in the following kilometers and 10 kilometers will pass went behind a record of 2:04:15. Passing the half marathon mark, showing timers 1:02:28 and the pace was just to improve Tergat's world record. However, there were doubts. The rate had gone down and the question hung in the air was whether Gebrselassie and hares had not exaggerated the pace in the first kilometers. Also had to wonder if the Ethiopian would have enough depth, especially when the hares left alone on the journey. When Tergat broke the world record had been lucky that Korir Sami accompany him to the last mile. That is something that helps psychologically as a runner who is just making a tremendous effort of concentration to keep pace proposed. And after the half marathon mark two hares left the race and stayed with Rop Gebrselassie, Wondimu and Limo. At mile 30 the last three hares left him only to Attempt the auction in the last 12 kilometers and 195 meters. The tailwind makes up the pace of the race signaled a final time of 2:05, which Gebrselassie not achieve the objective of improving the world record. In these circumstances, the Ethiopian had to speed up and accelerated, drawing a slight tailwind which was a kind of compensation from Berlin climate headwind that had punished a year ago. The race solitary Haile Gebrselassie this year was crowned with success and it was announced at km 35 when the timers were in 1:43:38 and the time was clearly another world record time. The world record of the legendary distance of 42 kilometers and 195 meters had been the target of Gebrselassie since, after having won everything on the track in the 5,000 and 10,000 meters and have accumulated records, had decided to try his luck in the marathon. The record in Berlin is the twenty-fifth world record Gebrselassie achieved. However, this does not have ended their dreams. "My goals do not end here. I want to be in the World Berlin and at the Beijing Olympic, told the Ethiopian, 37 years old.
