Linda Haglund ran 200 meters outdoor in 22.82 seconds in 1979 and no Swedish ladies’s file in athletics has stood longer.
Now no less than it is tangential.

Thought in regards to the file
In Rome, Julia Henriksson ran in the identical time as Haglund did 45 years in the past, was second in her warmth and made it to the EC ultimate.
Henriksson instantly realized that she had taken a ultimate place, however as a substitute her ideas turned to one thing else on the end line.
– It is so silly. The very first thing I believed was ‘rattling, I haven’t got it (the file) myself’. Hopefully I am going to have it myself quickly. However it’s extremely massive. Tampered with the Swedish file and a ultimate place on the EC, these have been my targets, she says.
The final Swede to be in an EC ultimate within the 200 meters was Linda Haglund in 1978. Henriksson will run the ultimate at 22:53 on Tuesday night.
– Now I’ve to recuperate for tomorrow and simply recharge. I do know I’ve the chance, similar to the opposite ladies. It is only a matter of driving and having confidence, she says.
