Nils Duerinck ends career

Nils Duerinck puts an end to his athletic career. The decision takes effect at once. The 400 meter runner became especially known as member of the 4x400 relay team and was also selected to participate as part of this team in the EC indoor in Göteborg at the beginning of March this year. Duerinck won a silver medal with the Belgian team at the WC indoor in 2010. His team ran a Belgian record which granted them a first place in the series, but in the finals he had to leave his place to Cedric Van Branteghem. Belgium won silver. At the EC later that year he won again in the series and he saw his team win bronze in the finals. At the EC indoor of 2011 Belgium took bronze again, this time with Duerinck in the finals.
