Athletics: Golden Gala; Jacobs, ‘I wish I had competed’

(ANSA) – ROME, JUN 09 – “I was really pleased to see all the people who came to cheer me on, even though I would have preferred to also be at the training camps to warm up for my race and then run in front of them as fast as possible”. This is how Marcell Jacobs made his debut in the mixed zone at the Olimpico, after the catwalk reserved for him in the Golden Gala. Jacobs continues: “It’s not the first injury, I face it in the best way. We managed to get back to a good pace, we just have to be patient.” The discussion then moves on to Eugene: “Will the World Championships be a real test? No, that was in Belgrade: I was doing a specialty that was not mine, I arrived as an Olympic champion and I left as a world champion. serene”. Jacobs expects to do “one or two races before the World Championships, it is really essential to find the feeling with the track”.

Marcell concludes: “Fred Kerley said that there is no great rivalry between us because we have still competed too little together? When you enter this circuit you can create rivalries, but I can’t have rivals: two days ago Kerley himself he wrote me on Instagram that he wanted to buy a house in Rome. I replied: ‘If you want, I’ll pick you up and let’s go to the agency!’ (HANDLE).
