There seems to be a trend amongst retired Premier League winners trying their hand at marathon running \u2013 and there\u2019s a new three-time champion in the mix.<\/p>\n

Following in the steps of Arjen Robben and Michael Owen, Robert Huth recently completed the Berlin Marathon as he swapped his football boots for running shoes. However, it wasn\u2019t the smoothest of entries for the big centre-back.<\/p>\n

Huth, now 39, won two league titles at Chelsea under Jose Mourinho and was a vital pairing alongside captain Wes Morgan in Leicester City\u2019s memorable title win in 2016. But the former Germany international\u2019s pace doesn\u2019t match speedsters Robben and Owen.<\/p>\n

Robben ran in the Rotterdam Marathon earlier this year where he showed he hasn\u2019t lost his lightning-quick speed \u2013 clocking in a time of 2:58 \u2013 averaging just over 20 minutes for every 5km, in a time current pros would be happy with. The ex-Bayern Munich star\u2019s time was almost an hour quicker than Owen\u2019s 3:45 he recorded in the 2014 London Marathon. <\/p>\n

Unfortunately for Huth, although a valiant effort considering he wasn\u2019t known for his running ability during his career, he recorded a time of 4:01 \u2013 finishing around a quarter of an hour behind Owen\u2019s time he set when he was 34, having retired at Stoke City just over a year earlier.<\/p>\n

Huth posted a picture of him after the race with his medal on Twitter, captioning the post: "Week ago today, that was tough! "Big thanks to #sebamed for organising. Same again next year? #bmwberlinmarathon."<\/p>\n

The 19-time Germany international retired from football in 2019 having been without a club for months after missing the entire 2017\/18 season at Leicester due to ankle and foot injuries \u2013 leaving the King Power at the end of that season.<\/p>\n

Huth has since made a return to Leicester in October 2022 \u2013 taking the position of the club\u2019s loan manager.<\/p>\n
