Five starts in Linz
Schuler eagerly awaits duel with European champion
This Saturday and Sunday, Austrian athletics will be looking for its national champions in Linz. Chiara Schuler from Hörbranz will be competing in five disciplines and will also be battling it out with Victoria Hudson. However, her personal highlight awaits in a different discipline.
"The 100 meter hurdles, long jump, javelin and shot put are actually my standard disciplines at individual state championships anyway," grins all-rounder Chiara Schuler. But this weekend, the 23-year-old will be competing in a fifth discipline in Linz. "As the schedule is not exactly ideal for me and my four standard disciplines are held within three hours on Saturday, I wouldn't have had anything to do on Sunday. That's why I'm also competing in the discus throw." The Hörbranzer recently won the national title in Lustenau with a distance of 36.65 meters.
Hurdles sprint as a highlight
The army athlete is very much looking forward to the duel with European javelin champion Victoria Hudson. "It's definitely something special," admits "Kiki", for whom the highlight of the weekend is the hurdles sprint. "I only beat my personal best by one hundredth of a second at the Hypomeeting - maybe I'll break it in Linz."
