Accompanied by temperatures of 17 degrees and bright sunshine, 150,000 spectators crammed some of Berlin's most famous streets on Sunday to watch over 20,000 athletes take part in the German capital's half-marathon. First athlete across the line was Kenya's Paul Kosgei in 59 minutes and 7 seconds, the second fastest time ever.
Meanwhile, in the nearby states of Saxony and Brandenburg, wet Spring weather has led to state-wide flood-warnings and evacuations. Despite very prevalent news coverage in the German media, early prognoses suggest that water levels on the River Elbe will not reach those attained by the major floods of Dresden and surrounding areas in 2002. al
