JOHANNESBURG sprinter Wendy Hartman upstaged several bigger-name athletes at the Absa Permit meet held on Saturday afternoon in Bloemfontein. The 22-year-old athlete twice upset sprint darling Heide Seyerling, winning the 100m in a personal best 11,29 seconds. “I have done powerlifting as my second sport for some time now, and this has given me much more explosive strength,” explained the diminutive sprinter. Llewellyn Herbert showed his sinus troubles of 1998 were a thing of the past when he cruised to a comfortable victory — a time of 49,52 in the 400m hurdles. Shaun Bownes posted the only record of the day when he equalled Kobus Schoeman’s 11-year-old mark of 13,68 in the men’s 110m hurdles, beating Slovakia’s highly-rated Igor Kovac in the process. Franz Kruger was named athlete of the meeting after throwing the discus 62,91.
