Adrienne qualified for world Championship final and finished 12th place

After a really tough and rough heat on Friday Adrienne qualified for a place in the World championship final on Saturday. To make the final she needed a pb time of 8.53.24 in a race with lots of tempo changes and pushing and pulling by the big field on the small 200 meter lap. Adrienne was very happy to succeed in making the final. Very unusual the final was held directly the next day. Adrienne tried to recover the best way to race a good and competitive race in the final. Unfortunately the effort from the day before was still in her legs. She finished 12th place.

`Im really proud and happy that I made it into the final and set a pb in a tactical race. In the final I just didnīt felt recovered. I just ran my laps but didnīt got the power. I took this championship as an extra after a great winter. I prepared the best of my ability but we chose to not do much specific training work since my aims are this summer in Barcelona. As my coach said, itīs really good to make the final without specific preparations but you canīt expect to surprise the world in a world championship with a little preparation`

Congrats with the PB on your 5K. Don't expect miracles, but be prepared for the unexpected. You will "fly" soon enough. Keep up the good (and hard) work!
