Annika Zeyen's Spotlight on Silver Medalist Nele Moos
The German long jumper Nele Moos made a stunning impression at the Paralympics 2024 in Paris, clinching the silver medal in the T38 class. In an incredible display of skill, the 22-year-old from Duisburg set three personal bests during the final, with her last jump reaching 5.13 meters, surpassing her previous record by an impressive 20 centimeters.
Moos Overcomes Challenges to Shine
Prior to her final leap, Moos had already made her mark, jumping 4.90 meters and then 4.93 meters, although these earlier attempts would only have placed her fifth. Meanwhile, fellow competitor Frederike Brose finished in ninth place, with a jump of 4.35 meters.
Marzillier's Near Miss on His Special Day
On a day that was both festive and competitive, runner Max Marzillier, who also faced a disappointing outcome in the T13 100 meters, once again fell short of the medals in the 400 meters. Celebrating his 24th birthday, he finished sixth with a time of 50.49 seconds, while Algeria's world champion Skander Djamil Athmani took gold with 47.43 seconds.
