The 12th IAAF World Championships in Athletics take places in Berlin this month. The event runs from August 15th to August 23rd. This superb event will be watched by spectators in over one hundred and ninety countries all over the world.
The event will take place in Berlin Olympic stadium which is capable of holding over seventy four thousand spectators. The stadium is located in Charlottenburg in Berlin. The marathon event will begin and finish in central Berlin.
The UK team goes in more hope than expectation this year with only two real medal contenders in the shape of Jessica Ennis, and triple jumper Phillips Idowu. Niggling Injuries to other key participants means that chances are being played down at the moment.
A fourteen strong team travels for Ireland with David Gillick emerging as a possible medal hope. Dervla O’Rourke may be another contender.
