Impressive world record Bol on obsolete 300 meter hurdles | Sport

That is not a common distance, but her time of 36.86 seconds is surprising all over the world and is more than one and a half seconds faster than the old world record from 2013. Next Monday, Bol will participate in the FBK Games in Hengelo where she ‘just’ won the 400 meters hurdles will run. That’s the song on which she won Olympic bronze last year

“This was a crazy surprise,” said Bol. “I hoped to run here in 37 seconds. I hit two hurdles a bit on the way and said to myself: come on, Femke, the last meters! When I saw the time, I knew why I felt so much lactic acid in my legs.” Bol will compete in the 400 meters hurdles on Monday at the FBK Games in Hengelo.
