Bloody hell, I don't think anyone expected her to actually win the 800 as well
She pchsycologically defeated the rest even before the race stared. Brilliant.

But Mo is long distance, or did I misunderstand and you are saying we need a Coe, Cram or Ovett to come through soon.

Middle distance track is normally classed as 800 up to the 3k. Long distance is 5k and 10 k.


And well done Greg, another gold.
