Sanna will make this the first race of what will be her final indoor athletics season. She\u2019ll compete over her favourite distance of 60m hurdles, the event in which she still holds the world record.<\/p>\n<p>\u2028\u2013 I have jumped at special high jump indoor meetings before, but never at an event in a superstore, explained Sofie Skoog. The Olympic finalist will face Sweden\u2019s world and European medallist, Emma Green, who will also finish her career this year. <\/p>\n<p>\u2013 At BAUHAUS we believe that sport is extremely important, both for individuals and for society. Athletics especially fits the BAUHAUS brand since it\u2019s a sport in which anyone can participate. Since 2015, we\u2019ve been the title-sponsor for Stockholm\u2019s IAAF Diamond League event, BAUHAUS-galan and it\u2019s great that we can expand our involvement through BAUHAUS-galan Indoor, Johan Saxne, marketing director at BAUHAUS said.<\/p>\n<p>Stefan Olsson, general secretary of the Swedish Athletics Federation also welcomes the initiative.\u2028<br \/>\u2013 We are delighted that our main sponsor, BAUHAUS, has taken yet another step to boost athletics in Sweden. And to do it in such an innovative way is especially fun. <br \/>\u2028<br \/>BAUHAUS-galan Indoor will be a compact competition. The track will be installed in the Bromma superstore overnight. For two hours in the afternoon of 28 January, customers will be able to watch 60m and 60m hurdles together with high jump and pole vault while they are shopping. The superstore will remain open as usual.<\/p>\n<p><i>Lorenzo Nesi<\/p>\n<p><\/i><\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><i><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt; line-height:107%; font-family:Calibri\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><link http:\/\/www.bauhausplay.se\/video\/1919 - external-link-new-window \"Opens external link in new window\">See a message from Susanna Kallur<\/link> <\/span> <\/i><\/p>\n<p><\/span> <\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">BAUHAUS-galan Indoor is organised by Stadionklubbarna who also organise the IAAF Diamond League meeting on 18 June at Stockholm Olympic Stadium. <\/span>This year\u2019s IAAF Diamond League starts on 5 May in Doha, Qatar. <link http:\/\/www.diamondleague.com\/calendar - external-link-new-window \"Opens external link in new window\">The complete season.<\/link>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Saturday 28 January Sweden will witness a world premiere for athletics in a completely new...","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":923,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"city":[],"class_list":["post-1640","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-stockholm"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1640","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1640"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1640\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/923"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1640"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"city","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholm.diamondleague.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/city?post=1640"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
