EP98 | From 125KG To A 2:20 Marathon Finish

In this week's episode, we look at what went down at the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON, as Tigst Assefa comes within seconds of an historic win, but has she sacrificed too much in pursuit of the record?

And speaking of Berlin, our guest Sam Griffiths was in the German capital this weekend. The Brecon-based runner finished a very respectable 81st place on Sunday, but the story of how he got there is truly inspirational.

We've also got a preview of next week's Bank of America Chicago Marathon.

On this episode of Marathon Talk:

  • 00:00 - Intro
  • 04:42 - We review the 2026 BMW BERLIN-MARATHON
  • 20:03 - We meet Sam Griffiths, who ran a 2:20:26 in Berlin at the weekend, but whose story is so much more.
  • 58:13 - We preview the Bank of America Chicago Marathon.
