OSLO—Norwegian hurdler Karsten Warholm is not against innovation in sports but feels the new carbon-technology shoes are hurting athletes’ credibility, the men’s 400 meters hurdles champion at the Tokyo Olympics told Reuters.
Karsten Warholm shaved off his own world record by .76 of a second—a massive margin in a one-lap race—to hold off American Rai Benjamin to win in Tokyo in what would be remembered as one of the all-time great Olympic races.
