Sweet ending.
Datsa Gethon finished the final of the European 10,000 meter running championship held in Munich, Germany, in 10th place this evening (Sunday).
The 24-year-old Gethon, who previously won the silver medal in this run at the European Under-23 Championships, was part of the main group in the run, but in the last kilometer, when the breakout began, he could not catch up with the leaders and ended up clocking 28:04.37 minutes, which is a personal best New.
In this run, Jamal Abdelmaji Issa Muhammad, an athlete born in Sudan, who is a refugee in Israel, also participated, but he retired during the run that was held in great heat, just as happened to five other runners.
The gold medal was won by the Italian Yamanbarhan Kripa with 27:46.13 minutes.
With this, the successful European Championship in Israel's history was closed, with 5 medals, which includes the team gold in the marathon with Maro Tefri, Girma Amra, Yemar Gethon, Bocayo Melda, Geshao Ayala and Omer Ramon, when Tefri also obtained the individual silver medal and Ayala the bronze.
In addition, we received the bronze of the triple jumper Hana Minenko and the bronze of Luna Chemtai-Salpeter, in the women's 10,000 meters run.
