At the European championships in Amsterdam in July, she will be running a potential four races in five days and at the Rio Games, she faces a potential eight races in 10 days. HENGELO, Netherlands (AP) " World champion Dafne Schippers set a world-leading time in the 200 meters at the FBK Games Sunday in her third sprint race in as many days to show her early form in the Olympic season. Instead, she had to settle for 22.02 seconds, shaving .23 off her previous season's best at her home meeting in eastern Netherlands. "I hadn't expected a time like this already now," said Schippers, the third best performer of all time with a time of 21.63. On Sunday, Schippers was not all that worried about the lack of top class opposition.
