Topic: Florian Schwarthoff


  
  IAAF International Association of Athletics Federations - Golden League 2003 - News
Schwarthoff's role as Director will not be in the classic mould of a ‘meeting director’ who used to be responsible for the whole organisation of the ISTAF, instead the functions of the meeting will be split between a director of organisation and a director of sport, with Schwarthoff taking the latter title.
It is ironic that it was in fact Rudi Thiel who had first arranged for Florian Schwarthoff to move from Heppenheim to Berlin some two years ago, and that during the last two years of his career he competed for Thiel’s club, the Olympischer SC.
Schwarthoff, who still holds the national record for 110 m hurdles (13.05) and was the 1996 Olympic bronze medallist, further explained, “it will be my job to choose the events and the athletes and to put together the timetable.”
