Sarnthein village run: Triathlete Daniel Hofer sets new standards

Daniel Hofer put in a record-breaking performance at the 31st Sarntaler Dorflauf. The 31-year-old set the pace from the start and pulled away in the first of four laps. On the last lap, Hofer slowed down, but victory after 5,4 kilometers was never in danger. In the end he won in a time of 17:43,1 minutes, seven seconds ahead of Alexander Stuffer (Lauffreunde Sarntal). Third place went to Gianmarco Bazzoni from Athletic Club 96.

There was also the expected favorite victory among the women. Local hero Kathrin Hanspeter, like Hofer, left no doubt from the start and controlled the race from the front. In 9:47,3 minutes, the woman from Sarnen ultimately won clearly ahead of Johanna von Dellemann and Petra Pircher after 2,7 kilometers.

The numerous spectators also saw strong performances in the youth categories. Local hero Heidi Messner's victory in the U18 category was particularly celebrated. Simon Egger's (South Tyrolean running club) victory in the U20 category was also convincing. In the team ranking, the Lauffreunde Sarntal won comfortably with 2001 points, ahead of ASC Laas (1641) and the South Tyrolean Running Club (1271).

By the way, the next VSS/RVD village run will take place on September 13th in Ortisei, followed by the dates in Glurns (September 20th) and the grand finale on October 5th, 2014 in Lagundo.
