Karsten Warholm's pursuit of the 400-meter hurdles throne in 2025 is likely to come at the expense of the European Championships and World Indoor Championships. The 28-year-old puts all her eggs in the outdoor basket. This is according to mother and manager Kristine Haddal to NTB. "There are few plans so far for the 2025 season. There will probably be no races indoors. Karsten will have full focus on the outdoor season. Currently, Bislett and the World Championships in Tokyo are in the plan, but more events will be added in due course, Haddal writes in a message. The European Indoor Championships will take place in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, from 6 to 9 March. Two weeks later, the World Indoor Championships are held in Nanjing, China. However, the 400-meter hurdles is not on the program in international indoor championships. Instead, the distance is run without hurdles. In March, Warholm participated in the World Indoor Championships in Glasgow, where he took silver.
