Castle island in Lübben: 900 runners defy the heat!

Lübben, Deutschland - The castle island run in Lübben proved to be a real highlight for the region last weekend. Over 900 participants gathered to do their best at different distances. There were around 500 children and adolescents among the runners, while around 400 adults were on their feet. Particularly noteworthy is the participation of 150 brave athletes who managed the half marathon route. See the impressive results and pictures on the website of the Evangelical School Association Lübben e. V., which was documented all day, as Niederlausitz Aktuell reports.

The event solemnly started with a service, held by the Protestant parish of Lübben, which initiated the sporting day with a spiritual moment. However, the high temperature on this day did not prevent the participants from doing their best. Fortunately, there were sufficiently shade -giving places and a beverage supply, so that nobody had to suffer from the heat. In addition, the percussion group Kitchen drum from Berlin provided a thrilling background music and helped the athletes and spectators to have a great mood.
