The European Championships are great - and a blatant challenge for amateur athletes.

Thomas Jensen found that out once again.

Munich - the power is gone.

The thigh feels like jelly and the whole body is completely acidic.

The problem: There are still about 40 of the 100 meters left.

Aleksander Askovic (24 years old/best time 10.36 seconds) from Stadtwerke München jogs relaxed to the finish and the self-experimenter tries to remember the tips he received earlier: "With spikes you walk on tiptoe."

Is the disappointing time (worse than the 13.00 clocked in the 10th grade) because you only remembered it after the last meters?

Maybe it's because you put yourself under too much pressure given the scenery in the Olympic Stadium...

Der Vorteil beim Kugelstoßen: Da hatte der Redakteur noch gar keine Erfahrung, konnte sich also auch nicht enttäuschen. Nach Tipps von Stadtwerke-Athlet Georg Harpf (16 Jahre/ 20,66 Meter persönliche Bestleistung) fühlt sich zumindest der zweite Versuch ganz solide an. „Sieben oder acht Meter waren das“, schätzt Harpf. Totzdem war es ein merkwürdiges Gefühl, mit aller Kraft einen so kleinen runden Gegenstand nur so wenige Meter weit zu befördern. Aber so eine Kugel ist eben auch schwer. Zuzugeben ist aber, dass der Test mit einer 5-Kilo-Kugel geschah und nicht der 7,25-Kilo-Männer-Kugel. THOMAS JENSEN
