Irish runner finishes second in her semi-final with a time of 49.87

final of the 400 metres, the Dublin sprinter second in her semi-final with another sub-50 second clocking of 49.87.

On another cauldron of an evening inside the National Athletics Stadium in Budapest, Adeleke once again ran calm and utterly composed, even if it did appear somewhat harder work than Sunday’s opening heat. Running in lane five, Paulino of the Dominican Republic was two lanes outside her, the 26 year-old who improved her best to 49.98 this season. Paulino was runner-up in Oregon last year, and at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, looking increasingly like the athlete to beat this time around.

who clocked a world-leading 48.74 in July to win the US 400m title, withdrew earlier this month due to a “minor knee injury”, the Olympic and World Champion in the 400m hurdles preferring to turn her focus to the Paris Olympics already.
