74 German athletes nominated for IAAF World Championsgips in Berlin 2009
July 8, 2009
After the German Championships took place in Ulm last weekend, the German Athletics Federation (DLV) nominated further athletes for the home world championships in Berlin this year. The last nomination will take place on August 2nd and until then there is still time to achieve qualifying performances. In the distance events there are still hopes on the mens side, whereas on the womens side it seems that only over 800m there are realistic chances. The most important meet for the German runners will be in Heusden/NED. Arne Gabius is chasing the 5.000m standard of 13:25min and also 1.500m-hope Wolfram Müller is expected to follow the already qualified 1.500m-runners Carsten Schlangen and Stefan Eberhardt.
