  • — Berlin Marathon: World Record for Kipsang —
    Volume 12, No. 57 September 30, 2013 — Berlin Marathon: World Record For Kipsang — by Sean Hartnett Berlin, Germany; September 29— The 40th BMW Berlin Marathon began with a celebration of the 7 runners who had previously achieved World Records over the city’s über- quick route. Wilson Kipsang joined this illus- trious club as the lanky Kenyan hit autobahn speed over the final 2.2 ki- lometers to drop the all-time best to a stunning 2:03:23. (Technically, Geof- frey Mutai is the “fastest” ever with his aided-course 2:03:02 from Boston ’11). “I am feeling very happy as the World Record holder in the mara- thon,” Kipsang admitted. “I’m the man now.” With this win and record, the 31-year-old Kipsang also became the first to run under 2:04 twice as he now possesses the event’s Nos. 1 & 3 clockings, bracketing Patrick Makau’s vanquished record of 2:03:38. Runner-up Eliud Kipchoge (2:04:05) also jumped high in the all- time rankings as his second marathon effort moved him to No. 4 ever, with the No. 5 performance. And he be- came the fastest non-winner ever. The record chase was on from the start, as would be expected, with for- mer recordsetter Haile Gebrselassie pulling the gun’s trigger. Dashing off into the still cool air the lead pack blasted a 2:47 opening kilometer before settling into a crisp tempo over a 61:34 opening half (see p. 563 for a complete charting of Kip- sang’s kilos).

  • Near Fatal Accident Hasn't Stopped Runner Lisa Buohler
    STARTING LINES [ NEWS, VIEWS, RACES, PLACES, GEAR & MORE ] Up and Running A year after a near-fatal accident, Lisa Buohler hasn’t lost a step BY LISA MARSHALL hen race organizers an- nounced they would be keeping the 2012 Boston W Marathon course open an extra hour due to record-high temperatures, Lisa Buohler reacted with more relief than worry. “I thought ‘Yay. That’s great! With six hours, maybe I can at least get a finisher’s medal,’” she recalls. Even that was a lofty goal for a 42-year- old mother of two who, just last September, was lying in a Florida hospital on a mor- phine drip, her liver lacerated, lung bruised, and back crushed after an SUV rear-ended her on her bike. It was only 16 days before Boston that her doctor had cautiously cleared her to start running again “as long as she took it easy.” So, when she crossed the finish line on April 16 in 3:48:51—on a day so hot that 4,300 registered runners opted to not even start—she surprised even herself. “I was shocked,” she says. “To this day I am still asking myself ‘How did I do that’?” Friends and doctors suspect the answer to this question, as well as how she survived her grisly collision without permanent brain or spinal cord damage, lies in the shape she was in before her accident. “She was just remarkably fit,” says friend and training partner John Blewis. “Literally one of the most determined athletes I have ever seen.” Born in Manchester, England in 1969, Buohler moved to the U.S.
