Berlin Marathon 2024 - Can I run my first sub 4 hour marathon?

[@yutheman]

Great race video! Congratulations on another marathon and ⭐️. Those last couple miles looked tough. Way to power through.

[@darylbickford]

Thanks you! One day I’ll find the right balance of nutrition and training to bring me to the finish line for my goal. See you two weeks!

[@runnerfromhel]

I asked wiser and faster runners than me. It takes a lot of practice with the gels. And even then throwing up can happen sometimes. But I wouldn’t want to miss the experience of Berlin. 🎉 Great video.

[@darylbickford]

@@runnerfromhel I’ll probably use the same gels for Chicago next weekend. Might be too soon to try something new! Glad I got to meet you!!

[@TheManolastra]

I hope to one day do one and finish close to your time. This helps to inspire me. Thanks for sharing!

[@darylbickford]

Thank you! One day we’re going to hit our goals!

Well done and congrats! Puma DNE3 ? I love that shoes

[@darylbickford]

@@Gymclasszero_c Thank you! Yes! This shoe was a fantastic ride for the race.

[@Gymclasszero_c]

@@darylbickford I am training for my first marathon next year (LM), and aiming for 4 hours. Can’t see it happening at the moment, but that’s my target. Again, well done you!

[@darylbickford]

@@Gymclasszero_c London is going to be an amazing race. Nice and flat course. You have plenty of time to work toward that goal. You’ve got this!!

[@arnoldkiel7670]

Without the stick, but a few gels instead you would have made it

[@darylbickford]

I think I need to find some new gels. Those Maurtens were giving my stomach some issues.

[@pauricgrant8700]

I foudn the pacers to be terrible at berlin 2024, you can even see in the video the 4.15 pacer running along side the 4 min pacer, and actually i ran beside the 3,45 pacer for a long time, he drpped back, i got over taken but the 4 hur pacer about 20 m from the finish and i ended with 4.15 time, also the 4.30 pacer finsihed ahead of the 4 hour pacer, essentially useless, they should have to run at a steady 4 hour pace and if they diverge too much they shouldnt be allowed to be pacers in future races,

[@darylbickford]

@@pauricgrant8700 thank you for watching. Did you have a race goal? What’s your next race? I’m running Chicago but not looking for a sub 4 on tired legs. Running for fun.
