How's the TRACK SURFACE in Berlin for the WC?

[Weights&Shoes]

Is it a fast Mondo Track like the one in Beijing during the Olympics?

Cinder. In tribute to the '36 Games. It's a "retro" track. :lol:

Hideously so. Looks like crap on TV . . .

Either me eyes are really gone, or the cameras are wonky, or that's a very slender track. It looks tiny, but could just be dwarfed by the massive stadium.

I think it's the extra space being blocked by sponsor signs + the grey floor where grass or the reg colored mondo track would be. you really see the open space they covered around the back stretch and the 200m curve.

Does it have a hardness rating of "11" or something else?

No it is not on par with Beijing and Atlanta exactly, but it isnt slow very clearly...
Powell and couple others did say it feels a bit "dead" in the rounds but mostly thats going to mean slightly slower 30-40m times because it is a bit softer.
Nonetheless... 2 of the 3 fastest times ran there, maybe not the absolute best, but not so bad either :wink:
