AMBITION ALWAYS COMES BACK @tigist__assefa

Dear Tigst — You are Berlins MARATHON HERO.
On Sunday, you showed the world what the power of the mind, combined with a fit body, can achieve. You ran off the power of ambition. Your body turned off, but your ambition kept you running.

Get well soon, and see you soon, because:

Ambition always comes back.

Your Julian (:

@tigist__assefa claimed her space, commanded the spotlight, and fought through every single kilometer. Missing the world record does not define this run. Pushing past human limits to her absolute breaking point is not failure. It is raw, undeniable power ✊✨ Women in sport are not asking for a seat at the table or waiting in the background. We are setting the pace, making history, and redefining what strength looks like 💪
