As a Brit, I probably have a degree of bias towards Keely, but I still don't think the WR is on the cards yet. It's a real shame that Athing won't be competing, because that would have likely helped both of them perform better.

I love watching Keely but I am getting very excited about Georgia Bell in 1500m
Holy crap she is hot!
Wow! Not only did all the finishers run below 2mins, they also ran under 1:59mins!!! That's just awe-inspiring!
Keely hodkinson is gold in Paris!
That’s a bold statement I don’t think that world record’s going to fall but we could see sub 154
With a 400M personal best of “only” 51.61 (not really world class) it’s amazing she can run 1:54.61 for 800M. She’s a bit like Ingebrigtsen over 1500M who has quite slow 400M and 800M personal bests, yet is almost certain to take the 1500M and mile world records this year or the next. The 800M female world record holder had a personal best of 47.99 for 400M. Keeley’s a strong favourite for Paris 800M gold with a fast run race. If it’s a fairly slow pace with a burn-up over the last 200M it’s possible for an athlete with superior natural speed to outkick her. I think Keeley’s smart enough to take the lead very early, if required, and run all the others “off their feet”. If you take out all the “dubious” 800M times of long ago above hers, Keeley is very close to the fastest ever. She’s terrific for the sport.
Peaked at the wrong time
I truly don't understand how Swimming banned super suits very quickly but we in the track and field fraternity just pretend like all the bizarrely fast times are just due to improved athletes…I've tested the shoes myself. They make an unbelievable difference to events 200m up. 100m not so much.
No chance of beating a she-male world record😏
The Ugandan set a new NR an came 6th lol
Great run and we all love Keeley, Gemma and Georgia but Roger Daltrey's world record is out of reach for now
Great runner great results, well done !!!, loving those ✔️Tops.
we all know that WR is a fraud.
Wanted to watch the whole run, without all the unnecessary inserts. Shame.
Go Keely.
If Hodkinson takes the WR, which I hope she'll do, it will be Beauty over the Beast …
Just worried that she’s losing her Manchester accent!
She is now the predominant favourite. At this point only ladies who I think have a chance against her are Mary Moraa or the 17y old wonderkid Phoebe Gill (as her ceiling is undefined right now). GB could well go 1-2-3 which feels insane to even suggest but it's possible.
according to the chart and my analysis she is probably the third fastest feminine person in the 800m congrats
she is amazing
I’m an American…that has become a new fan of Keely. I appreciate how she kept her nose to the grind even when losing to Mu. I guess I appreciate the ‘underdog” trope…even though to say Keely was ever truly an underdog is crazy lol.
Keely is a Beautiful Machine of a Runner🏃♀️⏱
I want to see this race but this commentator wrecks everything. Can he please stop?
I've noticed Jemma Reekie…she also has good podium chances at the Olympics.
Another good video. I think the WR is still some way off, but it was an incredible run. I do think Reekie would run faster if she improved her technique. From the side she looks good but from head on shots her right leg swings out wide with every stride which is costing her speed.
Most probably Keely Hodgkinson just set the REAL World Record.
Don't care about the time just thank god we have got away from those horrible 800m races of 10years ago Lyndsey Sharp bravest of the brave respect to you
They should scrap all record's during the Iron Curtain era, it's not in indispute that all Soviet Block countries doped, and before the era of testing probably a lot of western athletes as well.
There should be two set's of record's dope tested and untested that includes the taking of substances that would clear the system in time for the major event's. They can keep their doped records, but allow woman a chance to go for acheivable record's not drug fueled records.
She should be no.4 all time, top two include Kratochvilova
A bloke will beat the womens record soon l bet 🙂
Why are British women so good at the 800 meters?
Sad to still not see a video about dominic lobalu😢
One thing about us British we always get ahead of ourselves,practically always leads to disappointment
Guaranteed Gold.😊
I'm sorry but all the records that still stand today that were clearly during a really bad period of Athletics that was known for wide spread doping especially in parts of Europe should just be completely rewritten….so many athletes have been so far away from those times it just proves it imo. Mutola and Semenya were just built differently and even they are way off the world record.
Even Florence Joyners seems unattainable by women throughout the years which just seems to be dodgy to so many. Koch in the 400m is definitely one, the woman she kept competing against was basically built like a male javelin thrower! I mean every record that still stands from the 80s should just be reset!
One of those moments where its an athletes time and it all comes together,olympics,great form,and she went out and grabbed it.
