Terrific 5,000 meter race from Konstanze Klosterhalfen. In a big finish she gave the concentrated competition no chance.
Klosterhalfen, who had to make do with fourth place over 10,000 meters, triumphed over 5,000 meters in a grandiose manner. Placed in the front field at the beginning, she had to let 10,000m winner Yasemin Can go halfway through the race.
But the German recovered from a minor crisis and went in pursuit. On the penultimate lap, she caught up with the leading Turkish woman under the cheering of the Olympic Stadium, which was again extremely atmospheric, and briefly stayed in the slipstream. And then the 25-year-old ignited the turbo. She irresistibly passed Can and ran all alone on the final lap to her biggest win yet.
Hartmann and Burghardt strong over 200 meters
Joshua Hartmann delivered a wonderful race in the semifinals of the 200m event. The man from Cologne crossed the finish line in 20.33 seconds, finished second in his semi-final and thus qualified directly for the final on Friday. Incidentally, it was the sprinter’s personal best. At the right time somehow.
And Alexandra Burghardt made it to the final of the women’s run. In her semi-final she finished third with 23.05 seconds – enough time for the final.
Three German pole vaulters in the final

Abuaku and Krafzik in the final
Joshua Abuaku has qualified for the final in the 400m hurdles. His time of 49.05 seconds was enough for second place in the semifinals. “It went well, I was able to complete the race with concentration. I’m satisfied.”said Abuaku of the ARD.
Constantin Preis competed in the second heat. He ran the distance in 49.55 seconds – it was his best performance of the season. And yet the time was not fast enough, the finale takes place without a prize.
Carolina Krafzik reached the women’s 400m hurdles final second in her heat. She needed 55.29 seconds.
200 meters: women’s trio in the next round
Robin Erewa started strong in the preliminary heat over the 200 meters, nobody came out of the starting block faster. However, Erewa was unable to keep up the pace and crossed the finish line in last place after 21.12 seconds. The final takes place without him. Joshua Hartmann (Cologne) and Owen Ansah (Hamburg) were already in the semi-finals.
In the women’s category, Jessica-Bianca Wessolly and Alexandra Burghardt progressed on the tartan track. Both finished third in their heats. Burghardt, a member of the 4x100m bronze relay team at the World Championships in Eugene, made a superior start but then took it easy and finished in 23.16 seconds. Wessolly went into the next round in the best time of the season (23.14). This also includes Corinna Schwab (Chemnitz), who was already seeded as third on the entry list.

3,000 meters obstacle – two German finalists
Lea Meyer won the second heat in 9:39.55 minutes ahead of Adva Cohen from Israel and Elizabeth Bird (Great Britain). Elena Burkhardt made it to the final in 9:43.97 minutes as one of the five fastest timers.
Gürth surprises, but it’s not enough for the final
Previously, Olivia Gürth surprisingly finished eighth in the first heat. Gürth only arrived shortly before the competitions, so it wasn’t optimal preparation. Bizarre reason: because her parents were on vacation, Gürth had taken care of the dog.
After the run, she briefly lost track: “I don’t think I was in the top ten”, she said in the ARD interview. Over time, Gürth could have reached the final, but the competitors in the second heat were too fast.
It does not run over 800 meters for Germany’s men
The two German runners, Christoph Kessler and Marc Reuther, were less successful in the heats over 800 meters. Kessler, who had also competed in the 1500 meters, finished last in his heat in 1:47.72 minutes. Reuther retired in sixth place (1:48.33 minutes).
