The US athlete Allyson Felix, the major competitor of Dafne Schippers in the 200m, gets her way. The international athletics federation IAAF has, in consultation with the IOC decided to bring the program for the Olympic Games something to suit
.
the original schedule of August 15 were only 75 minutes between the series of the 200m and the final of the 400 meters, two distances at which Felix will go for gold. Therefore the thirty American had made the request to build in some more space between the two matches.
The IAAF published Saturday a custom schedule. The series of 200 meters have been moved there from the evening to the morning of August 15th. The final of the 400 meters is the final part of the day.
Schippers was last year at the World Championships in Beijing world champion in the 200 meters. Felix hit that distance then on and focused entirely on the 400 meters. With success, because the US took the world title. In Rio de Janeiro she wants as the third athlete in history, after Valerie Brisco-Hooks in 1984 and Marie-José Pérec in 1996, an Olympic ‘double hit’ save the 200 and 400 meter
