Athletics: New Swedish record in 800 meters by Andreas Kramer – struck in Poland

It was in Polish Bydgoszcz, at the Irena Szweinska Memorial, that Andreas Kramer hit a new top time.

The Swede won an 800-meter race in 1.44.08. It is a new Swedish record. He thereby improves his own rating, from 2020 in Ostrava, by 39 hundredths.

The 27-year-old won the race and it is thus his third victory in five days since the Sollentuna Grand Prix on Sunday and the bravado at the Paavo Nurmi Games on Tuesday.

In today’s competition, where the Swedish record was set, he was second with 200 meters to go, before running past the Algerian Mohamed Ali Gouaned.
