Assefa, a five-time world record holder and two-time London Marathon winner, triumphed in the women's race, finishing with a time of 02:11:04. The Ethiopian runner surpassed her fellow countrywomen Bedatu Hirpa and Dera Dida, securing her third Berlin Marathon title. In the men's race, Adola claimed victory with a time of 2:02:50, leaving Gemechu Dida Diriba and Gabriel Geay in second and third places respectively. Adola's win was all the more impressive given that he competed despite the withdrawal of world-record holder Sebastian Sawe earlier this year.",
