48.67s ‼️

If you thought her 400m performance last weekend was impressive, Salwa Eid Naser 🇧🇭 went even quicker at the Grand Slam Track event in Kingston, Jamaica, last night, where she dominated the rest of the field, which included the 200m & 400m Olympic Champions! 👑

She’s now produced the quickest-ever 400m times in March and April.
