RE: How to run a sub 3 hour marathon:
well I doubt I will be one of the fastest, even if I achieve my goal time in Berlin.
Do you have a link to your list?

Thanks for replying to my comment! Given your PB your are statistically among the 10% fastest Marathon runners. Considering that approximately 0.5 % of the world population have at least once finished a marathon (according to a 2012 study from Runners World) you could expect to be in the Top10 or Top 20 within this community with its ~35k members. So potentially a whale within a marathon subfeed ;-)
The idea was to collect the finisher times in the comments of my respective call (https://steemit.com/sports/@shaka/fastest-marathon-runner-of-all-steemians).
So which finishing time are you aiming for in Berlin? My mid-term goal is to break the 3h frontier in 2017, probably at the Frankfurt Marathon.
Happy running!
I've done Frankfurt before, it's a fast course and the finish line is pretty special.
My goal for Berlin is sub 2:50, 2:45 would be a dream but I don't think I will manage it this time, but who knows!
