THE UNOFFICIAL LARS RIEDEL WEBSITE
I am
Michael Robertson, a High School student and discus thrower. I
currently live in Europe and throw for a local track club, as
well as my school here in Brussels. I spend the majority of my
free time throwing, and studying the technical intricasies of the
discus throw. This webpage is dedicated to the person who I view
as the greatest thrower in my lifetime, Lars Riedel.
Personal Results So Far This Year
Frosh(15)...................................Disc:166-6(1.5k).........Shot:44-11(5k)
Over
the following weeks I will be working to improve my site. I plan
on including a pic page, video page, article page, and an
intensive links page, ( links to all sites pertaining to
throwing.) please come back to check up on my changes
THE SEASON IS HERE!!!!!!!!
Lars Riedel is already atop the World List with a 69m throw in Wiesbaden!
Riedel is looks as if he is near top form!!!
He will have quite a challenge at the World Championships in Seville with competitors like Godina, Alekna, Washington, and Schult all capable of snatching the Gold from Riedel!
Nevertheless, I am confidant that Riedel will be able to win!!!!!!!!
Here are the World top 10
