Women's racewalking records at European Championships
Spanish runner Maria Perez and Italian athlete Sophia Fiorini have set new world records in the 13.1-mile (half marathon) and full marathon races during the European Athletics Championships. Perez won the gold medal in the half marathon with a time of 1 hour, 30 minutes, and 6 seconds, surpassing the previous record by 24 seconds. Fiorini claimed the marathon title in 3 hours, 15 minutes, and 11 seconds, beating the former record by 1 minute and 49 seconds. These two times are now the official world record marks for these distances, following their recent ratification by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF). The new record standards have been set at 1 hour, 30 minutes, and 30 seconds for the half marathon, and 3 hours, 17 minutes for the marathon.
