The Central German Marathon has a problem. Every year there are fewer Starter at the marathon distance. But this is certainly not the sole problem of the MDM. So does the supply of marathons in Germany more and more and usually focus on the events of the 'favorable' April, May, September and October. But the MDM has teamed up with his choice of route certainly no pleasure. First, the route of Spergau is not exactly attractive landscaped to Halle, and the journey to the starting point requires starters Outside a significant logistical effort. This year there were only 220 runners (196 men, 24 women) completed the marathon.
The organizers tried by the inclusion of new competitions are the number of starters to 'beautiful' something. Meanwhile, does the program of the MDM as the schedule of the Olympic Games. Only scooter races and sack races missing. Here, the MDM would not be necessary. Now a perfect organization, many supporters and half marathon course that is not only attractive but also is Bestzeitenfähig. No wonder then the half-marathon, the most starters (1000) reported.
has one advantage the crowded program, as the 10km race on Saturday, you can walk with a certain freedom from pain even on Sunday the half marathon. This was demonstrated by our Vice-100km Sachsen champion Marcus. On Saturday evening at around 10km race through the old town hall with a new personal best of 37:55 on the 6th place Total running, and won the 2nd place of the M30, it was on Sunday as the pace maker for 1:40 at the start line. These were joined by Frank and Manuela yet.
celebrated After a great race in a new personal best of 1:27:08 Manuela victory for women in the half marathon. After her victory in the 50km race in Leipzig another important milestone in their preparations for the fall marathon.
But Frank was in his 'comeback' of the half marathon, a great performance.
The only starter of the LG exa about the long distance was Peter, who has again made the arduous Spergau and then manage the way back to Hall in his usual nonchalant style in 3:30.
