Christie Gets Two

Compiled From Wire Services

Britain’s Linford Christie broke two records within 90 minutes at the Lievin international indoor track and field meet.

Christie made a rare appearance in the 200 meters and broke the indoor record, clocking 20.25 seconds. That world record came shortly after he broke his European record in the 60-meter dash with a time of 6.47.

A European record went in the women’s 200, as Irina Privalova of Russia broke her mark by .05 seconds with a 22.10 time.
