10th Tartu Inline Skating Marathon
First place in the 10th Tartu Inline Skating Marathon went to the talented Estonian, Marten Liiv of team Uus Maa.
“My plan from the beginning was to work for Tigreros in case we are going to finish all together in a group, but we managed to leave the group with Kaspar Kaljuvee. That is why it was possible for me to win the race,” said Liiv. Liiv and Kaljuvee left the leader group 3 kilometres before the finish.
In the women’s class, Marina Zueva from Belarus finished in first place for the second straight year. Not only did she finish with the main group, but she earned the 17th place overall.
“The race was really hard, I tried to stay in the same group with men, but the speed was really high,” said Zueva. The second place in the women’s class went to Estonian best speed skater Saskia Alusalu, who got the 24th place in total (1:15.43). The third place went to Diana Kaareste and her finishing time was 1:16.47.
With a total of 1089 inline skaters starting the 10th Tartu Inline Skating Marathon, there was a huge amount of competitive inline racing with 618 skaters competing in the marathon distance, 302 inline skaters racing in the half marathon distance, and 169 skating the 10km distance.
