Katinka Hosszu Is Relentless... Luxembourg Euro Meet Is Up Next

Post race conversation: Jakabos and Hosszu planning their next competition together.

Katinka Hosszu is starting 2013 as she started, finished (and everything in between) 2012... by racing. This time around it is in the long course Luxembourg Euro Meet which runs from Jan 18-20. Just as she did in three weeks ago in La Reunion, Hosszu has entered every event on the women's programme. That's 16 events in 3 days.

Also competing is her ever present compatriot Zsuzsanna Jakabos as well as Olympic champion Ruta Meilutyte and her Plymouth Leander team mates. A number of German internationals (Yannick Lebherz, Hendrik Feldwehr, Christian vom Lehn, Marco Koch, Dorothea Brandt) as well as Ukraine's Daryna Zevina will also be racing this Friday to Sunday.

122. Deutsche Meisterschaften - German Nationals

German Nationals start today and like a number of other major swimming federations they offer a live stream (Britain - Catch up). Its a tremendous way to see swimmers that you'd otherwise have to wait until a major competition to get a look at. Most eyes will be on Paul Biedermann to see what times he can acheive, however Germany also has a strong crop of youngsters coming through which includes:-
- Silke Lippok, 16, who swam 54.99 in the 100m Free at the German Youth Championships
- Christian vom Lehn, 18, who swam 2:13.38 in the 200m Breast at German Youths
- Bastian Vollmer, 17, who swam 28.87 in the 50m Breast at German Youths.
(Thanks to @swimsportnews for the results)

Other senior swimmers to watch out for are Hendrik Feldwehr, Daniela Samulksi, Benjamin Starke, Yannick Lebherz, Jenny Mensing, Marco Koch, Caroline Ruhnau, Steffen Diebler, Dorothea Brandt and Annika Mehlhorn.
