Hering with seventh title in a row over 800 meters
Christina Hering has secured the championship title over 800 meters for women. It is the seventh triumph in a row. In 2:00.73 minutes, the Munich resident ran her personal best of the season. Second was Majtie Kolberg from Bad Neunahr-Ahrweiler, around 50 hundredths of a second behind. Third was Lucia Sturm in 2:02.59 minutes.
Tim Holzapfel won the men’s 800 meters in 1:49.25 minutes. Rocco Martin was second, 34 hundredths of a second back. The podium was completed by the real favorite and defending champion Marc Reuther, who is still suffering from the after-effects of a corona infection.
Rebekka Haase won the sprint distance of 200 meters in 23.03 seconds and the best time of the season. Haase had already won silver over half the distance on Saturday.
Surprise over 1,500 meters
There was a small surprise in the men’s 1,500 meters: Germany’s new long-distance hope Mohamed Mohumed had to give way to Marius Probst (3:44.72 min) and the new German champion Christoph Kessler (3:44.64). Fourth was Marius Tortell. Kessler was first subsequently disqualified because he had unfairly secured a place on the final loop. However, he then successfully appealed against the decision.
Hanna Klein won the women’s title over this distance in 4:22.13 minutes ahead of Katharina Trost and Vera Coutellier. Alina Reh won the slightly longer distance of 5,000 meters with 15:21.11 minutes. However, she also benefited from the cancellation of the best German long-distance runner Kontanze Klosterhalfen.

Corinna Schwab won the women’s 400 meters in 51.61 seconds ahead of Judith Franzen and Alica Schmidt. Marvin Schlegel was among the men with 45.77 seconds. Second was Patrick Schneider. Bronze went to Manuel Sanders.
