Netherlands' Femke Bol ran the 400 metres in 49.26 seconds at the Dutch Indoor Championships in Apeldoorn on Sunday to break one of the longest-standing world records in track and field.

Bol's time beat the previous record of 49.59 set by Czech athlete Jarmila Kratochvilova on March 7, 1982.

"It was because of all the fans here that I ran this record," said the 22-year-old, who claimed bronze in the 400m hurdles at the Tokyo Olympics behind Americans Sydney McLaughlin and Dalilah Muhammad. "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."Reporting by Aadi Nair in Bengaluru; Editing by Ken Ferris

Still not as fast as a good transgenered female

Can’t wait to see a match up btw Bol and Sydney in 2024 Olympics, if Sydney McLaughlin decides to also run 400m flat

Soon to be broken by a man pretending to be a woman..

No chest.

at the 2024 Olympics it will be a great duel with Sydney McLaughlin, a great female champion, now there will be two female champions!

Fantastic indeed. But why are you using an old photo? Is Reuters paid by UBS?
