Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Austria's marathon record holder Peter Herzog has set his sights high for the Vienna City Marathon (VCM) on April 6. The man from Salzburg wants to put in his best performance to date at Austria's biggest running event. "I'm coming with higher ambitions than a year ago. If I'm in good health, I want to run towards 2:12. I'm really looking forward to my return," says Herzog.
Last year's Vienna City Marathon, which the Tokyo 2021 Olympian completed in 2:15:29, gave him "an incredible amount of strength and joy after a dry spell. Before that, I was in a downward spiral for two or three years". After Vienna, the man from Pinzgau ran 2:12:08 in Berlin and 2:12:18 in Valencia. His Austrian record from 2020 is 2:10:06.
