Life

Julian Flügel was born in Fulda in 1986 and started running for the first time at the age of 16 . He came to PSV Grün-Weiß Kassel via LG Baunatal-Fuldabrück , for which he started until 2010 before moving to LG Telis Finanz Regensburg in 2011 . From 2013, after his personal record of over 5000 meters , Flügel preferably ran longer distances and made his marathon debut as the best German at the Hamburg Marathon in 2014 in a time of 2:15:39 h, and in 2015 he switched to TSG 08 Roth .

Julian Flügel qualified for the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in January 2016 through his time at the Berlin Marathon 2015 (2:13:57 h) , after the German Olympic standard for the marathon distance had been set at 2:14:00 h. In the meantime, Flügel, together with Philipp Pflieger (2:12:50 h, Berlin 2015), hired a lawyer on behalf of other athletes to take legal action against "DLV and DOSB lawsuit for disability of athletes in the exercise of their profession and unreasonable disadvantage".
