the dutch Femke Bowl established this Saturday a new world record in the distance of 500 meters on the indoor track by winning the meeting in Boston (United States) with time 1:05.63.
Femke Bol, triple gold medalist at the outdoor European Championships held last year in Munich, broke the previous world record held by Russian Olesya Krasnomovets by 68 hundredths with a time of 1:06.31 minutes from January 2006.
The Dutchwoman launched herself from the start for the record with a furious pace that forced her to run almost alone, witnessed by almost three seconds in which she overtook her closest pursuer, the Jamaican Leah Anderson, second in 1:08.34 minutes. EFE
