The 116th German Athletics Championships were held on June 18 and 19, 2016 in the Kassel Auestadion . This is the second time in five years that Kassel has been awarded the national title fights after 2011 . The German Athletics Association (DLV) announced this decision on June 9, 2015. The early championship date is due to the tight competition program in 2016. Less than three weeks after the German Championships, the European Athletics Championships took place in Amsterdam from July 6th to 10th and the athletics disciplines were included from August 12th to 21st the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro .
The greatest distance in the long jump was once again achieved by Markus Rehm , who reached 7.95 m with his prosthetic leg and was honored as the winner of the separate classification.
The all-round competitions took place during the Olympic Games , so that the best couldn't be at the start here. However, this was often not the case in previous years, because other competition offers - v. a. in Ratingen and Götzis or major international championships - too timely.
