We have now put all the indoor age-group records on the website. It was only from 2007 onwards that we in the Faroe Islands began competing indoors regularly. At first it was with a small youth national team going to Stórmót and a few DMU competitions. A lot has happened since then. Hvirlan, Treysti and Bragdið go to Stórmót every year with many athletes, and it has also become common for many Faroese athletes to compete at DMU.
Rúni Seloy was born in 1994 and will not set any more age-group records. But with his 16 age-group records he is, at any rate, the top scorer for now.
It is also the younger athletes who hold most of the records. The top scorer in indoor records is Rúni Seloy, who holds 16 records, most of them at 400 and 800 metres. Next comes Tórur Mortensen with 13 records. As well as records in the long jump and triple jump, Tórur also holds records at 60 m, 200 m and in the hurdles. At 19, he still has the chance to add to his records.
Among the girls, Birita Ryan holds the most records. Birita is a good all-rounder and holds records in the long jump, high jump, triple jump, 60 m, 200 m and shot put. 13 in total. After her comes Rebekka Fuglø with 10 records, set at 400 m, 800 m and 1500 m.
Birita Ryan can jump forwards, jump upwards and run lightning fast. With 13 age-group records she is three ahead of the next girl on the list, Rebekka Fuglø.
All the indoor age-group records can be found under “met” in the menu bar on the front page. (scroll all the way down)
