The 25-year-old sprinter recently shared memories of her 400m Indoor World Record, which she had created last year.<\/p>\n<p>Bol uploaded her photo with the world record timing on her Instagram story. The Dutch athlete had achieved a world record timing of 49.17 seconds in the indoor 400m event at the World Indoor Championships held in Glasgow.

Though she couldn&#8217;t overcome her chief competitor Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone in the 400m hurdles, the Dutch athlete helped Team Netherlands win a surprise gold medal in the mixed 4x400m relay finals, only hours after Team USA broke the world record. Bol also contributed in the silver medal performance of the women&#8217;s 4x400m relay team at the Paris Olympics, before she ended her year on a high with a fourth consecutive title at the Diamond League.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>Femke Bol reveals her reason for skipping individual races during the primary leg of 2025 reason<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sk-app-thumbnail\" alt=\"Femke Bol mentions why she chose to skip early individual races in 2025 season [Image Source : Getty]\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg\"\/><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class=\"lazy-img\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1279\" data-img=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg?w=190 190w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg?w=720 720w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg?w=1045 1045w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg?w=1460 1460w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg?w=1600 1600w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg 1920w\" alt=\"Femke Bol mentions why she chose to skip early individual races in 2025 season [Image Source : Getty]\" data-img-low=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/03\/6a7c8-17409619660171-1920.jpg?w=640\" bad-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%201920%201279%22&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\"\/><figcaption>Femke Bol mentions why she chose to skip early individual races in 2025 season [Image Source : Getty]<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Dutch athlete Femke Bol hasn&#8217;t participated in the early individual races of the 2025 season.
