Finnish runner Eveliina Määttänen On Friday, I ran a Finnish record of 800 meters in the inside of Germany in Erfurt, Germany.

Määttänen clocked the new SE-time in his first race of 2.01.55. The previous February 2024 Running Finland’s record 2.01.57 was also in the name of Määttänen.

The running star also fell below the profit limit for the European Championships competing in Apeldoorn in the Netherlands in March. The limit is from the hall 2.02.00 and from the outer paths 1.59.00.

– Balanced and peaceful competition. I was able to run in peace, Määttänen described the race in the Sports Association bulletin.

Määttänen was second in the competition on Friday. He passed the end of the Danish Annemarie Nissen (2.02,15).

The victory took German Majtie Kolberg. His time of 2.00,53 is the top time for the European hall season. Finnish Veera Perälä was involved in the race as a hare.

Määttänen’s record from the outdoor tracks is 1.59.59 last summer. Preparing for Friday was not the best as the runner had a stomach disease at the South African camp.

– A few important exercises were not done, and even at the beginning of this week I was uncertain. Therefore, the knowledge of the race was quite a mystery.
