In Espoo, Finland, she achieved her goal of running a PR of 51.76 (improving 53.24 significantly).  She said, “I cannot remember too much from this race. This is really a lot more different than the 800m. The girls were so quick. I was just chasing them and am happy for the top three. I was trying to get a new PB and to enjoy the competition. I have learned to be patient with every round and just to trust myself and stay confident. I think my 800m got quicker also, thanks to this event. It had been a lot of fun running the 400m”.
