The 37th German Athletics Championships were held in Berlin on August 3rd and 4th, 1935 .
The competition program was significantly reduced compared to previous years. There were no relay races, for men the 20-km walk was removed from the offer, for women the 200-meter run , the long jump , the shot put and the pentathlon were also canceled. Stone throwing and throwing balls have disappeared from the program of the German championships to this day. Thus there were only five disciplines for women, compared to eleven in the previous year - apart from the 4 x 100 meter relay, an adaptation to the then current Olympic disciplines of women’s athletics.
The only outsourced discipline was the forest run , which took place for the first time not in early spring, but in autumn, on November 3rd in Wittenberg .
Also in 1935, due to the Aryan decree from 1933 and the Nuremberg Laws that had just been passed, there were considerable restrictions for Jewish athletes, who were largely denied participation in the championships.
There were also new German records:
- Long jump - Wilhelm Leichum with 7.73 m
- 100-meter run - Käthe Krauß as the winner and Marie Dollinger as second with 11.8 s each
