STOCKHOLM (SWE): Karsten Warholm is yet to decide if he will race again in 2020, informs World Athletics. “I’m not sure. I need some time to schedule the rest of the season. The only thing I had planned was Monaco, then I added on Stockholm. The rest we’ll have to see. It’s tough to get together a good schedule because the world is in these crazy times. It’s hard to say what happens next week or the week after that. All meets might be cancelled or may not be. We just have to wait and see. But I’m very happy about what I’ve done so far, and time will tell,” he said.
