The actress Gerit Kling and her colleague Hendrik Duryn won the celebrity runs of the “Baltic Lights” sled dog race on Usedom. This was announced by a spokeswoman for the organizer on Sunday. Kling was the fastest celebrity with a time of 2 minutes and 43 seconds, faster than Duryn, who defended his men’s title with a time of 3 minutes and 10 seconds.
In 2022, the model Franziska Knuppe won the celebrity rating among women. In the race, both celebrities and professionals had to steer a kind of beach buggy, in front of which several huskies were stretched, over a course on the beach.
Among the participants, who were cheered on by thousands of spectators despite the changeable weather, were world boxing champion Henry Maske, former “Tagesschau” spokesman and RTL presenter Jan Hofer and entertainer Wolfgang Lippert.
Money was again collected for Welthungerhilfe at the sled dog race.
