Sabrina Mockenhaupt and Christian Glatting took the titles in the German 10.000m Track Championships in Ohrdruf. With Filmon Ghirmai and Musa Roba-Kinkal, two more athletes cracked the qualification time for the European Championships in Barcelona this year.
mens race:
Christoph Lohse was set as a pacemaker and did a good job, leading a big pack through 3.000m in 8:39min. At this point the lead pack was already down to seven (Glatting, Roba-Kinkal, Ghirmai, Hallmann, Zelalem, Pflieger and Dutch runner Stitzinger). Just after 8K, Musa Roba-Kinkal injected a big move, that was only covered by Christian Glatting and Filmon Ghirmai. The split for 8K was far too slow for the qualification time for the European Championships (28:45 for Germans) and most coaches already thought the game would be over. However, the trio ran a phenomenal last 4 rounds, covered the last kilometer just outside 2:40min and in the last round Christian Glatting (28:40,18min) made the decisive move with 300 meters to go. Steeple specialist Filmon Ghirmai (28:41,36min) passed Musa Roba-Kinkal (28:41,90min) on the home stretch to get the silver. Roba-Kinkal also got a title as he is still U23 and won this category. Altogether eight Germans (including three U23-juniors) plus two foreigners ran sub-30min.
Now it seems there will be a good battle for the Barcelona places in the German team. Sebastian Hallmann, who took 4th in 29:09 in the race, can also run the 28:45 standard and of course the reigning European Champion Jan Fitschen, who canceled the race due to a flu, is also in the game after some good weeks of training.
womens race:
As expected Sabrina Mockenhaupt won her 26th German Championships in a solo-effort. With her time of 32:10,31min she was well below the qualification time of 32:25,00min. Second place went to Simret Restle (33:06,84min), who profited from running with Swiss athlete Martina Strähl (33:11,21min). Third place in the German Championships went to Ingalena Heuck (33:30,25min), who just won the German Halfmarathon Championships two weeks ago. The title in the U23-category was taken by Christina Kröckert (34:07,43 min).
Results were already published earlier.
Victory ceremony for the women.
Glatting (100), Roba-Kinkal (99), Ghirmai (109) and Hallmann (22) with around 700m to go. Friedrich (18) and Schuff (76) are lapped.

For the first time in the history of the RheinEnergie Bonn Marathon saw a German winner. David Karl was the first runner to cross the line after 2:28:42h. The 23-year old has a PB of 2:23:59h, from last years German Marathon Championships where he took 3rd place. In the womens category Birgit Lennartz repeated history: She already won the 1st Bonn Marathon nine years ago!
This year was the first time, race organisers in Bonn disclaimed from inviting international top athletes, so only one Kenyan participated but faltered in the late stages of the race.
The blind Paralympics-Winner and World Record holder Henry Wanyoike (KEN) completed the halfmarathon in 1:19:44h.
Also Sabrina Mockenhaupt and Luminita Zaituc took part in the race, but used her part in a marathon relay as a training run.

German 3000m steeple champion Antje Möldner will not be able to compete in 2010. That also means she will not participate in the European Championships in Barcelona. Möldner has a lymphoid cells disorder which requires long-term treatment. Her return to training will most probably be in November 2010. The German hope was 9th in the Berlin World Championships last year with a German record of 9:18.54 min.

It took Thomas Dold 10 minutes and 16 seconds to earn his record-tying fifth consecutive win in the Empire State Building Run-Up to the top of New York’s tallest building.
Grimacing as he lunged across the finish line on the 86th floor observation deck, the 25-year-old from Stuttgart (Germany) beat fellow German Matthias Jahn (10:56min) up the 1,576 steps by 40 seconds. “I’m so tired … It was quite hard,” Dold said. He is the third person to win the race five times. His only loss was a photo finish in his 2005 debut.
First women was Melissa Moon, 40, of Wellington (New Zealand) in 13 minutes 13 seconds. She finished panting, but smiling. “Oh, look at that view!” she said at the top.
The unorthodox race has been run 33 times since 1978. Competitors start in the lobby, where they take just a few strides before squeezing through a doorway and into a stairwell for the long climb.
