Muhammad breaks world record in 400 hurdles



DES MOINES: Dalilah Muhammad broke a 16-year-old world record in the 400-meter hurdles by finishing in 52.20 seconds at the U.S. championships.

“I’m just shocked,” Muhammad said. “I broke the world record.”

With puddles formed on the track, the defending Olympic champion sloshed her way around the track to eclipse the mark of 52.34 set by Yuliya Pechonkina of Russia on Aug. 8, 2003.
