Munich. Andreas Algren is fourth in the 5,000m and for me that’s as big as the medal.
Next is greater than the length of silver in Thobias Montler.
Does Sweden finally have a long-distance runner on his way to the global elite?
I think so.
Only he remains healthy.
Almgren took a JVM bronze in the 800m in 2014 and made his first appearance at the 2015 World Championships in Beijing.
Since then everything has been lost.
Championship after tournament was decided both indoors and outdoors, while the 27-year-old Majn sat at home with all the injuries and ailments that could be found in the doctor’s book.
Run it anyway.
Several years ago, he learned to listen to his body and stop hard training when his body says no.
It didn’t help last winter, when he was forced to cancel the indoor toilet in Belgrade.
By that time he had broken the Swedish record for 3,000m indoors and ran seventh all-time European with a time of 7:34.31 at a gala in Levine, France.
Then he felt his foot right before the bathroom.
But after seven years of waiting, he finally succeeded in completing the path, though I didn’t feel so certain until he stood there on the starting line with World Dominator Jacob Ingbrigtsen and the others.
The Norwegian who ruled this race as he pleases.
But when he stings, Almjren followed him. Not in the back of the Norwegian, but still close enough to give hope for the future.
I wouldn’t say Hungary was close to a bronze, but he did a personal best with 13:26.48 and Italian Yemaniberhan Kripa had to empty himself to move away from the bronze position.
I’m sure that Andreas Magyar In good enough shape to beat 46-year-old Anders Garderud’s record of 13:17.59.
With the right race maybe even before the season ends.
No, bring an already lit Almgren EC to Sweden.
There was talk that Jakob Ingbrigtsen risked washing, when he ran a few steps on the grass next to the track.
But what will he do when one of the contenders throws himself in front of him?
No, he would have felt wrong if it had been washed off.
Although he would have given the Magna a bronze.
*******
Yes, there was EC silver for Tobias Muntler in the long jump at the end, after 8.06 in the last jump and the Swedish protest
Britain’s Jacob Fincham-Dakes took the silver from the start, but his 8.06 was omitted.
Which is more than agreed by the Swede, who finished second behind Greek winner Miltiadis Tintoglu, who won the 8.52 – the longest jump in the world this year.
But it wasn’t a fuss right away.
*******
Decimal player Marcus Nelson stood for another feat in the quiet, when he broke his own personal record and became fourth in the EC with 8,327 points. Only 19 points from the bronze at the end.
He came in third in Sweden of all time behind Niklas Wiberg (8406) and Henrik Dagard (8403).
And what an end when German Niklas Kohl closed an almost impossible distance to Swiss Simon Emer in the last 1500 meters and took the gold medal.
My ears are still ringing.
*******
Yes, it was the intense atmosphere in the Olympic Stadium on Tuesday night that peaked
I think there were about 40,000 spectators in the ring and a crowd who really knew their sports.
It’s also nice to see the decathlon runners get the recognition they deserve.
I hope the audience can also drag Bianca Salming to a personal record in the heptathlon.
Now at 6,101 pips and it’s not impossible to beat it in this frame.
The whole family seems to deserve it now.
After all, I’ve met Father Porgy, who is really interested in athletics, at every little competition Bianca has been in, and he seems to be glued to the TV couch this time as well.
despite the facts.
