Walker Christopher Linke is aiming for a medal at the World Championships in Athletics in Eugene. But the Potsdamer didn’t run for more than 20 kilometers and he got out. He still has one more chance.
It didn’t go well at all for the walker Christopher Linke. Instead of fighting for a medal over 20 kilometers at the World Athletics Championships in Eugene, USA, as he had hoped, he was left behind on Saturday night and gave up.
