Last year's tour winner meets world number one: fast times guaranteed in the men's 1,500 metres

The men's 1,500 metres at the INIT INDOOR MEETING Karlsruhe on 8 February is set to be an exciting and, above all, fast race, as Samuel Pihlström, last year's overall winner of the tour over this distance, will be competing against Azeddine Habz, who currently tops the world rankings for the 1,500 metres. They will be joined by other world-class athletes such as Anass Essayi from Morocco, Federico Riva from Italy and Karl Bebendorf from Germany.
