  "account": "BERLIN (AP) — Ethiopian runner Guye Adola claimed victory at the Berlin Marathon on Sunday, while fellow countrywoman Tigst Assefa's bid for a women's world record ended in disappointment due to an injury in the final kilometers. Adola crossed the finish line shortly before Assefa, who finished with an unofficial time of 2 hours, 11 minutes and 4 seconds after limping to the Brandenburg Gate with a leg injury. The 35-year-old Adola secured his second win in the German capital, following his triumph in 2021. Gemechu Dida Diriba of Ethiopia finished second, 28 seconds behind Adola, with Gabriel Gerald Geay of Tanzania rounding out the top three. World record holder Sebastian Sawe was unable to participate due to an injury but attended as a guest of honor. Start times were moved earlier on Sunday due to the unusually high temperatures in last year's marathon. Despite the warm conditions, the race took place under clear autumn skies with minimal wind, though it remained warm.",
