Berlin - Taehyung

Berlin is usually considered the fastest of the majors. Many world records happen in Berlin. In fact, Eliud Kipchoge set the world record in 2018 when I ran it! (Then he set it again in 2022, then Kelvin Kiptum set the current record in Chicago)

Funny story—Berlin was my worst race. Maybe I was having too much fun beforehand? Taehyung feels like he would fit right in, whether it’s having too much fun or setting world records. He can do both.

The 2018 medal which randomly had kipchoge’s portrait on it to celebrate his 2016 Olympic gold. I feel Taehyung would also vibe with being handed a medal with his own face on it (or Yeontan’s face)
