Tina Fischl unbeatable once again at the Sauwald-Trail

Only a few hours after her victory at the DHL Airport Nightrun in Linz, running ace Tina Fischl was at the start line of the Sauwald Trail in Schardenberg. For a long time, this very well-organized trail adventure in the Innviertel had been on the schedule of the mountain running specialist from Fürstenstein. Now, finally, nothing stood in the way. The well-known personal trainer decided here for the so-called Kösslbach Trail over 13 km with more than 300 meters in altitude. Immediately after the start at the sports field in Schardenberg, Fischl took the lead of the women’s field and set a fast pace. Already after about one kilometer into the course, where it went into the terrain, Fischl had a lead of several seconds over second-placed Martha Weber.

Along beautiful nature, the course led over forest and meadow paths with great views, before it went over a single trail into the Kösslbachtal. Here, too, the endurance specialist gave her competitors no chance and kept up the pressure. Even after about 9 km of the course, the runner of WSV Otterskirchen showed no weakness. The last hard climb up to the village of Asing had to be mastered now.

At the top her lead had grown to more than 2 minutes. The last kilometers back to Schardenberg then led again over beautiful trails in great scenery. Fischl of course didn’t let the lead slip away and crossed the finish line as the winner of the women’s classification with an excellent time of 1:02:58 hours.
Second place went to Martha Weber with a time of 1:05:26 hours.

Tina Fischl in an interview immediately after crossing the finish line:
“I am overjoyed that I could run a start-finish victory here today on the 13 km course, although I only slept 3 hours. Two victories within 12 hours – that has never happened to me before. Many thanks to the organizers of the event, it was really fun, and I will surely come again.”

DHL Linz Airport Nightrun – Tina Fischl runs low flying to the airport victory

A very special kind of running event took place at the airport in Linz during the night from June 30 to July 1, 2023. This major event, in which more than 2,000 male and female athletes were registered, is held in the middle of the airport’s runway. Immediately after the last plane arrived at 11:00 p.m., the runway was prepared for the athletes.

The start time at 0.00 a.m. certainly also was a very special challenge and really untypical for a running event of this kind.

All in all, a 5.0 km long circuit had to be mastered on the runway. The runway was not specially illuminated, so the runners had to concentrate very hard on the course, as the asphalt was slightly uneven.

The experienced exceptional runner Tina Fischl did not let all this upset her and was absolutely focused. Immediately after the starting signal Fischl ran behind the fastest men and none of the more than 700 starting women could follow up to her. Even after about half of the course Fischl didn’t want to leave anything to chance, she was almost alone at the head of the women’s field.

With an absolutely reasonable lead of over 1 minute Fischl flew towards the finish line and crossed the finish line overjoyed as the overall winner of the women in 18:07 min.

Fastest at the ‘Schafberglauf’ at lake Wolfgangsee

With a clear lead and a new course record the mountain running specialist Tina Fischl was able to achieve another great success. A total of 1,188 meters of altitude on a distance of 7.2 km had to be reached at Wolfgangsee. Tina Fischl had already run a victory at the Schafberg in the previous year and therefore already knew in advance that the run with an average of 15 percent slope will be very hard again.

The starting signal was given directly at the Schafberg train station in St. Wolfgang.

Right from the start away from the village, it got down to business. Some of the girls from Austria literally sprinted up the first steep climb. However, the experienced runner did not let herself be distracted by the high pace and played her experience to the full here. After the hectic first 1,000 meters of the course, Tina Fischl found her rhythm and at this point was in 2nd place overall in the women’s race. Fischl always had eye contact with the leading runner Isabell Speer from Austria and the steeper it got, the closer the mountain running specialist came to her. In a steep slope at kilometer 3, the German mountain running champion was then able to take the lead and continuously extended her advantage. The Austrian could no longer follow and had to let her go.

Overjoyed, personal trainer Tina Fischl crossed the finish line at the Schafbergspitze to the applause of the numerous spectators. The lead over her pursuer was just under one minute. Fischl was delighted to learn at the finish line that she had set a new course record, which was duly celebrated at the award ceremony.

Silver and gold at trail event in Italy at Monte Baldo

For the endurance specialist Tina Fischl, WSV Otterskirchen, a special highlight, the ASICS Malcesine Monte Baldo Trail, on the beautiful Lake Garda, was once again on the agenda last weekend.

The technical course with a length of 16 km and 1,200 altitude meters led from the picturesque village of Malcesine steeply up the western flank of Monte Baldo to the middle station at 713 m above sea level. From here the athletes had a beautiful view of the Lago del Garda. In a breathtaking nature it went on in partly very stony terrain on narrow paths and single trails, steadily up and down.

In beautiful weather with temperatures around 20 degrees Celsius and sunshine, the runner from Fürstenstein was able to take the lead from the start and then extended the lead in the climb up to the middle station to about 1 min. In the difficult rocky downhills, however, Fischl had some problems and had to slow down a bit. As a result, the Italian Andrea Schweigkofer/Sportclub Merano was able to run up and immediately take the lead. Tina Fischl tried everything to keep up with the high speed on the difficult trails, but of course she didn’t want to risk a bad fall.

In the further passages over stick and stone it then went back again in the direction of Malcesine before a further Downhill of approx. 3 km length led down over narrow ways to the goal in the local center of Malcesine. Here the runners were welcomed by many spectators.

Tina Fischl was able to finish only a few seconds behind the Italian Andrea Schweigkofer with a time of 1:48 hrs. and took an excellent 2nd place in the overall race and 1st place in her age group.
