The youth will compete for the first championship titles at the Czech Championships in the Prague Olympus hall this Sunday, February 10.2.2019, XNUMX.

Technical delegate of ČAS dr. Taking into account the set participation limits, Kňákal selected a total of 49 registered from the start, namely 15 pupils, 6 pupils, 11 adolescents, 8 adolescents, 5 juniors and 4 juniors, more - 31 in the women's and less - 18 in the men's category. Pupils, pupils and juniors will cross the track 3 m, teenagers and juniors 000 m.

Among the students  Katka Nedvídková from Rumburk is a clear favorite, just like last year. 2004 (15: 59.73 min) and Sternberg Ema Klimentová, 2005 (16: 19.24 min), otherwise also an excellent runner (1500 m under 5 min). There are more candidates for the bronze medal - Račanská and Škařoupková from Orla Vyškov, Peškařová from Česká Lípa, Horáková from Rumburk, Bednářová from Frýdek-Místek, Krimwaldová from Mladá Boleslav; black horse can be an excellent younger pupil Adéla Veselková, 2006, from the Rumburk walking group (2 m in 000:11 min). About student medals opponents from competitions in the Liberec region should share without problems, Roman Hanyk from Turnov (16: 19.49 min) with Patrol Solnička fighters from Mladá Boleslav (16: 45.22 min) and Matěj Šturma (16: 50.20 min), all of 2004 - if they manage the race within the rules. About the winner of teenagers There is no doubt that the unrivaled Turnov Eliška Martínková, 2002, has a time of 15: 30.01 minutes despite her injuries this year, while none of her opponents has gone under 17 minutes yet. There will be a big fight for the remaining medals, each of the seven (alphabetically) Denková, Rumburk Holičová, Machačová from Vítkovice, Mynářová and Pánková from Frýdek-Místek, Uvírová from Porubská Uvírová and Vejšická from Prague in their comeback from 2017. It will depend on current performance and proper tactics. Completely the situation for adolescents on the 5 m track is unclear. Adherence to walking rules will be a basic prerequisite for success. Last year's champion Adam Zajíček, 2003 from Poruba, could win, with a best time of 25: 47.85 min; The more experienced (year 2002) former student champion Adam Feranec from Vítkovice and multiple medalist Daniel Balicz from Mladá Boleslav will certainly fight for the title. Last year's silver pupil from Brno Jaromír Morávek, 2003, now trains in the Jilemnice sports grammar school with coach Piták, and the championship will be a great test of the effectiveness of this change. The question is the form of Brno's Antonín Sekerka, 2003, a bronze pupil in the hall last year who allegedly left walking after disqualification at the September Championships in Jablonec; rookie Robert Hurdálek, 2003 from Trutnov, may also have medal ambitions, and Kryštof Alex, Kladno, 2003, a bronze pupil on the track last year, cannot be underestimated, even though he is slower to this year at 3000 m per minute (> 17 min) and has never walked 5 m. For the title among juniors Sabina Bočková, 2001, is the number one candidate in Opava. Junior sovereign is according to time Vítkovice Rostislav Rožnovský, 2000, (21: 41.98 min), Rumburk Petr Dušek, 2001, (24: 49.34 min) and Porubský Filip Kašťovský, 2001, (25: 38.74 min) should share the remaining medals. Ukrainian Mykola Hetsyanyn, 2000, does not have Czech citizenship and starts without the right to a championship position.
