Machine-translated from Faroese and not yet reviewed. Read the original.
Yesterday Rebekka Fuglø from Treysti travelled to Denmark, where she will run this weekend in the Danish Indoor Championships, held at the Sparbank Arena in Skive. Earlier this month Rebekka was in Reykjavík with Treysti, where she won both the 800 m and the 1,500 m.
Tomorrow at 13:10, Faroese time, she runs the 1,500 m final. Seven women are on the start list, and Line K. Schulz is the clear favourite to win. There is very little between four of the others, and Rebekka’s aim is to run under 4:30 and set a new record. If things go to plan for Rebekka, that should at any rate be enough for a top-five finish.
Then at 16:30 Faroese time she runs the 800 m heats. Fifteen women will compete in two heats for six places in the final, which is on Sunday. The winner of each heat goes through, plus the four fastest times. There are three runners from abroad who are quite fast, so Rebekka will need to run at her very best or possibly better to secure a place in the final, which will be run on Sunday at 13:45 Faroese time.
As in previous years, Rebekka represents Vejle IF at the Danish Championships, where she is the only Faroese athlete competing this year.
Tórur withdraws
Runner Tórur Mortensen from Hvirlan, who was also due to compete, has withdrawn because of a minor injury.
