Falk Cierpinski 19th in Lisbon

March 25, 2009

Thirty year old German marathon hope Falk Cierpinski started in last weekend’s Lisbon half marathon. In a time of 1:06:25 he took 19th place in a race that was won by Kenyan Martin Lel (59:56). Cierpinski ran the race only couple of days after coming back from an altitude camp in Kenya, where he stayed with fellow Germans Martin Beckamnn and Tobias Sauter to prepare for the upcoming spring season.
