Kenyan Wilson Kipsang made the most of the flat and fast Berlin streets to smash the marathon world record by 15 seconds en route to taking the title on Sunday.
The 31-year-old Kipsang clocked a time of two hours three minutes and 23 seconds to better the previous mark set by compatriot Patrick Makau in the same race two years ago.
