ATHLETICS
WATCH Hero shot putter saves team by running 100m hurdles
Belgian athlete Jolien Boumkwo may have only come seventh in the European Team Championships event, but stepped up in style.
‘Fabulous!’ ‘Bravo...that’s the spirit!’ ‘Boss mode!’
Just some of the comments from viewers after the video was shared by European Athletics. With their 100m hurdler, Anne Zagré, injured and therefore unable to compete, the Belgium team desperately needed a runner to prevent them from getting relegated.
Great stuff!
