HANNES KIRCHLER'S DISCUS PAGE
Mission completed!
 
The year 2008 was a bad year for me...
a lot of injuries and a personal fate in family handicaped my way to the olympic games in beijing.
 
I sweated blood before national championships because the federation told me I had to improve the victory with a range of over 61m if I wanted to go to china. This was my last chance..
 
not that simple that it seems to be. mental pressure, bad conditions and a strong adversary my good friend diego fortuna.
 
but finally I did it. in the last throw. 61,09m. my ticket to the olympic games and italian champion. the fourth time on the bounce.
 
Still alive....
