31 Jan. 2016 – Charles KARAM has been doing an amazing indoor season so far, competing in several indoor meets and in different events.
After breaking the 200m indoor record with an amazing 22.39 seconds, he now attacked the 500m. We should note here that the 500m in not an official event at the big events but usually athletes run other than the usual distances that are indoor: 60m, 200m, 400m, 800m etc. These runs are also considered records.
Charles was planning to run both the 400 and 500 meters indoors. But it is very tough for an athlete to run both on the same day and with only 30min rest between them!
He ran the 400m but didn’t complete it after feeling tightness in his legs. He then attacked the 500 meters and completed the distance in 1:06.21 to set a new best performance on this particular distance.
Charles will be competing every week to try to improve his times. His mind is set for the World Indoor Championships! We wish him the best!
