PARIS, Feb 20 — Dutch runner Femke Bol set a new world record in the women’s indoor 400m on Sunday with a time of 49.26sec which broke the old mark set 41 years ago.
Bol, a world and Olympic 400m hurdles medallist, had also set a world best of 36.86sec in the rarely-run 300m hurdles in Ostrava last year. “Never have I ever seen that many people here. When I crossed the line I knew that the record was mine, because of the noise that the crowd made.” She got a typical strong start and went through 200m in 23.63sec before surging over the finish line in 49.26, chased by Lieke Klaver who was second in 50.34.
