He has European Championship silver in the 800 meters from Berlin 2018 and aims to reach the final of the World Cup. Lahti has done a World Cup before, 207, where she did not complete the 10,000-meter final.
Stjärnkollen: There are only two finals during the sixth World Cup day, the ladies’ discus and 3,000 meter hurdles. The reigning Olympic champion in discus, Valarie Allman, has been totally superior this year when the American set a personal record with 71.46 meters. World runner-up Sandra Perkovic, Croatia, has thrown a best of 68.19 so far this year but has previously thrown over 71 meters. Norah Jeruto, born in Kenya but now competing for Kazakhstan, is world number one in the distance. She seems to thrive in Eugene where she won an obstacle course almost a year ago. Only Jeruto and Winfred Mutile Yavi, also born in Kenya but now competing for Bahrain, have run for nine minutes this year.
