EUGENE - World record breaker Sydney McLaughlin warned that"the sky's the limit" after smashing her 400m hurdles record on Friday, but then hinted that she could well switch disciplines.
Asked whether a switch might be to the 400m flat, McLaughlin said:"I think anything's possible... but I leave it in the hands of my coach, Bobby.The 22-year-old looked stunned as she hared through the line in front of a partisan, baying crowd. "Just putting everything that you've done in practice into the race to the point where you're like just letting your body do what it does," she said.
Crediting her Christian faith, support staff and self-control, notably when it comes to social media, for her level-headedness and continued success, McLaughlin said she loved competing on the"big-stage race knowing that the crowd was full and I had really great women that I'm racing against".
