A combination of things that I won’t do justice to in this answer. So consistent structured training built over the years. Lots of base building miles, with faster effort work. A few backwards steps but kept trying and kept moving forward.
Budget dependent, the closer to the start/finish ie the Tiergarten the better. However the transport links are excellent in Berlin so you can get better value just outside of that area.
Between 4.55 and sub 3 was quite a while. I had at least 4 years where I didn’t run. And when I returned I was inconsistent, then I had at least 3+ years of structured and regular training before I broke sub 3
Thanks for this mate, can't believe it's two weeks away! Good luck with you pb quest - I'll be a loooooooong way behind you 🤣🤣

Nice one. See you there and good luck with your training!
Nice video Marcus. As Marcus says, save some energy for when you reach the Brandenburger Tor. From there it's about 200 m to the finish line.
Thank you! 😁🙌🏾
Thank you Marcus😊

Marcus! I'm running Berlin for the first time this year...where do you reco staying?

How long was it between your 4.05 and 3.01?

One question, does it cost money in order to be on the marathon?
There’s a few extras but it starts at €163. Some off which I feel should be included like the timing chip which is approximately €6
