Published by IAAF on December 27, 2016

Olympic champion Dalilah Muhammad will compete at the Müller Indoor Grand Prix Birmingham and will take on fellow 400m hurdles specialist Eilidh Doyle at the IAAF World Indoor Tour meeting on 18 February.

Muhammad had a remarkable year in 2016 as she dominated the 400m hurdles, running a world-leading time of 52.88 before going on to win the Olympic title in 53.13.

The 26-year-old will make her first appearance at the Müller Indoor Grand Prix and is hoping to transfer her 400m hurdles form to the 400m flat event when she lines up at the Barclaycard Arena.
