The „ Home-match“ in our own living-room, and everyone wants to
participate. And of course when you´re a Pirate. And because of
that, the “ Running Pirates of Lausitz” participated at the 4th
DAK-City run of Hoyerswerda.
The first for the run was the 6 year old Pirate offspring talent
Anna-Maria Mikwauschk. She did the 1km run of her Seenland elementary
school in 6:32min, and placed herself in th midfield in her age-group.
For the 10km run, the three founders of the club, had higher goals.
You had to run a 2km round course 5times, right thru the old town
and the Zoo of Hoyerswerda. And the Running Pirates of the Lausitz
wanted to show everybody, what they´re made of, and what they
all did or train for in the last months...
With wondeful late summer temperatures and sunshine, they all
were able to improved their times on the 10km course. And because
of that, nine of the animals in the Zoo, had to be freed, to chade
the Pirates over the course, to speed them up.
Jan Möller also were able to reach the 3rd place in his age-group
(40-44). Altogether participated about 1300 runners on the race
and different distances.
The results of the Pirates :
Steffen Gierth 0:44:58h ( 4th AG 35-39),
Jan Möller 0:47:44 / 3rd AG 40-44) and
Harald Skopi 0:48:27 (6th AG 30-34)
