Alaine Aguerralde Cto de España 400m Short Track Sabadell 2026

A stellar performance by Alaine Aguerralde, securing the national title and setting new records. At the Spanish U20 Short Track Athletics Championships, held in Sabadell, the 400-meter final was run under a new format recommended by World Athletics, which involves splitting the final into two races to avoid disadvantages in the inside lanes. In Final A, Ana Alba Ruiz won with a time of 54.58, followed by Rocío Navarro with 54.94. However, the gold medal went to Alaine Aguerralde, who won Final B with 54.56, running virtually alone. With this time, she also broke the Basque Country U20 record and the Gipuzkoa absolute record.
