Both 2017 and 2018, Andreas Kramer set a Swedish record at Tingvalla IP.

His current Swedish record is from 2020 and is 1.44.47.

The 25-year-old hopes that he can erase out in Karlstad.

- My hope is to get a good race so we can go for a fast time.

I set my first Swedish record here, so it would have been fun to set one for the last time.

But we will see, there is a lot that matters as usual.

Weather and how the race will be, he says.

Kramer competed last Thursday at the Diamond League gala in Stockholm and then he felt in good shape.

- It feels stable.

I have had several good races and hope to get a little extra the last few weeks.

The biggest competition of the season, the World Cup in Eugene, starts on July 15.

- Of course I have thought about the World Cup for a long time.

This is what you have uploaded for.

I love championships.

That's a big part of the run for me.

To recharge together with everyone else and go there and perform at the top.

The GP competition in Karlstad is broadcast on SVT2 and on SVT Play from 14.55 on Sunday.
