    I did run the Berlin marathon in the 80s, the year the Colombian guy won, Berlin from what I can see on your video, has changed a lot and not in a good way....Take a look at the Mont Blanc marathon if you are interested in something different....not quite as flat as Berlin but I assume being from Florida flat becomes boring quite quickly.
