Jesús David Delgado Defends National 400m Hurdles Title in Málaga
Jesús David Delgado secured his third consecutive Spanish 400-meter hurdles title in Málaga, clocking 49.73 seconds as he prepares for the upcoming European Championships.
Jesús David Delgado reaffirmed his dominance in Spanish athletics this weekend in Málaga, successfully defending his national title in the 400-meter hurdles. Despite challenging, windy conditions on the track, the Tenerife CajaCanarias athlete won the final with a time of 49.73 seconds.
This victory marks Delgado’s third consecutive national title, continuing a winning streak that began in 2024. His current form follows a breakthrough performance on June 16 at the Golden Spike meet in Ostrava, where he set a new Spanish record of 48.11 seconds. That achievement not only makes him the fastest in the country but also places him among the best in Europe.
The win in Málaga serves as a perfect warm-up for the upcoming European Championships in Birmingham. By consistently finishing under the 50-second mark, Delgado has proven his technical growth and ability to handle competitive pressure. His recent success on the international circuit suggests he is in peak form to take on the challenge in Britain.
