#berlinhalf Daniel Ebenyo wins the GENERALI BERLIN HALF MARATHON with 59:30 (unofficial) from Amos Kurgat (59:42) and Isaia Lasoi (59:47).
#berlinhalf In the sun temperatures have gone up to well over 20 C, probably more likely 25 now.
#berlinhalf Kurgat and Lasoi are not far behind Ebenyo now and it looks highly likely that they will catch the leader soon.
#berlinhalf In the women's race there are two leaders now: Ethiopians Ftaw Zeray and Tekle Muluat passed 15k in 47:10, which is 66:20 pace. Melat Kejeta is in third place with 47:29.
#berlinhalf Samuel Fitwi passed 15k as the leading German in 42:58, which is roughly 60:30 pace. There will be no German record. Amanal Petros holds the mark with 60:09.
#berlinhalf Could there be a race for victory? Kenyans Amos Kurgat and Isaia Lasoi are now just 25 seconds behind Daniel Ebenyo...
#berlinhalf Daniel Ebenyo has a tough race now, leading alone. He has slowed a bit and passed 15k in 41:35. This would currently point to a 58:28 finishing time and it gets close regarding the course record of 58:42.
#berlinhalf Running on his own Daniel Ebenyo has slowed a bit and it might be struggle to break the course of 58:42. Unfortunately the Kenyan was a bit overambitious with an extremely fast first part of the race.
#berlinhalf Four women are in the leading group with Ethiopia's Tekle Muluat passing 10k at the front in 31:25, which points to a 66:15 finishing time. Melat Kejeta has lost contact and is five seconds behind.
#berlinhalf Daniel Ebenyo's 10k split time is 27:29 and they are now out of world record pace. He is now alone, the pace has dropped out.
#berlinhalf Pacemaker Bravin Kiprop and Daniel Ebenyo have covered the past few kilometres slightly slower, they are still on course for a world record though.
#berlinhalf Germany's Samuel Fitwi passed 5k in 14:09, he is on course for a German record (60:09) and to break the one hour barrier, but it is very early in the race.
#berlinhalf The women's leading group passes 5k in 15:32, which points to a 65:53 at the moment.
#berlinhalf Daniel Ebenyo's 5k split time is 13:28, which is world record pace! Currently this mark stands at 57:31. Ebenyo's pace points towards sub 57:00, which is very, very ambitious.
#berlinhalf The temperature is around 20 C, not quite as warm as forecasted but not quite ideal.
