Rudolf Harbig Memorial Prize

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Rudolf-Harbig-Gedächtnispreis has been awarded as a traveling award since 1950 to a "worthy and well-deserved athlete who can be seen as a role model for young people in terms of attitude and performance."

It was donated at the suggestion of the Club of Old Masters, later the Association of Former Athletes (VEL), by the Honorary President of the German Athletics Association (DLV) Karl Ritter von Halt and is awarded annually by the DLV President and the Chairman of the VEL. The award commemorates Rudolf Harbig , the most successful German middle-distance runner of the 1930s, who fell in World War II in 1944.
