Femke Bol......new indoor 500m WR!

She looked great. Perfect stride, but that voice

Amazing run. Seemed like she was about to be passed at 150m but she kept powering through from there and never let up -- that was a huge chunk off a long standing record (plus, 3 seconds faster than what Syd ran at this distance 3 years ago). Great sign for the 400m hurdles rivalry

Was not expecting that, for sure..

Ok here it comes…could she beat Keely Hodgkinson’s 1:23.41 World Best?

Interesting matchup. Femke's seems the better performance and I just checked the IAAF scoring and sure enough her result is worth 1234 while Keely's is 1215. Mind you if they went head to head you have to think Keely would have a slight edge with her greater strength?

Is there a video link?

Might need a VPN though.

Build the wall….🇺🇸

Another amazing performance. Looks like Syd was smart to duck her.

Femke is on fire. She'll be tearing apart the track this summer in both the 400 and 400h. Syd will lose.

Femke could break the 600 WR easily. She's in 1:57 800 shape too.

Gorgeous. Beautiful voice and great demeanor.

QUEEN of t&f.

A 600m with Hodgkinson, Mu and Bol would be a dream matchup. Advantage Mu but on any given day.....

She looked controlled and easy with that 500M WR. She is a threat to win a 400 flat, 400H, and maybe an 800M, I am sure Sydney, Athing and Keeley took notice.

What were her splits? I figured an average of 13.1/100m so somewhere under 52 at 400?

She's been sucking on the same helium balloon as Jessica Hull.

Bol v Syd v Hodgkinson v Mu over 500m

Keely would have a problem there. She's really only about a 52 second 400 runner. The other 3 are documented sub 50. However Keely is only 20 and will likely improve her speed.

After she finished, a 12 year old girl asked for her autograph and she ended up giving her bib to the girl.

Considering it was a world record run, I thought it was a great gesture and wanted to share.
