German Athletics Nationals 2024 – Day 1 Field (29th June 2024)

Florian Buechting Sports Reports No Comments

Compared to the outfield positions in Kassel the year before, the German Athletics Nationals 2024 were a bit of tricky for photographers. Thus, I could not cover some of the disciplines of day 1 properly. However, the organizers really tried their best to have bearable conditions for everyone. Here is my Day 1 coverage of the field events from Braunschweig.

 

This posting comes with 207 major size pictures in a dedicated event section of the sports gallery.

 

German Athletics Nationals 2024 – Day 1 Field Events

The first field event of the first day was the men’s javelin throw. As expected, Julian Weber (USC Mainz) dominated the competition. Even the worst of his throws, the fourth attempt of 82.48 meters, would have beaten second-placed Thomas Röhler (LC Jena) by more than five meters. He finally won with 86.63 meters. In the second technical discipline, MTG Mannheim’s Simon Batz won the men’s long jump with a distance of 8.04 meters. Luka Herden (LG Brillux Münster, 7.79m) and Maximilian Entholzner (LG Stadtwerke Munich, 7.74 meters) placed second and third.

There were a couple of events I could not at all or just very limitedly cover, major due to timing or visibility issues. Tobias Potye (LG Stadtwerke Munich) won the men’s high jump rather easily, his 2.18m beat Florian Hornig (TSV Bayer Leverkusen) and Lukas Haiduk (LG Neumünster) by nine centimeters. SC Paderborn’s Kristin Prudenz won the women’s discus throw with a season best of 65.93 meters. Anjuli Knäsche (VfB Stuttgart) had the brightest smile in the women’s pole vault, winning with a final height of 4.50 meters. I did not manage to see the men’s shot put at all, where VfB Sindelfingen’s Eric Maihöher’s personal best of 19.78 meters made him German champion in that discipline. In line with that, there was not really a good position and time to cover the women’s hammer throw, which has been won by Samantha Borutta (Eintracht Frankfurt, 68.44m).

 

Women’s Triple Jump

At least, I had some more time to have a look into the women’s triple jump. Both, final winner Kira Wittmann (Hannover 96) and second-placed Sarah-Micelle Kudla (SCC Berlin) had their best distance in the third attempt. Wittmann won by eleven centimeters, having a distance of 13.47m.
