Keely Hodgkinson Breaks World Indoor 600m Record With 1:23.41 In Manchester - Video

A couple of things:

(1) That was a World Record run which they call a ‘World Best’, since the 600m is not a standard distance.

(2) Streaming British Athletics like that, put up on YouTube, instead of behind a paywall, is wonderful.

Nice to see a clean WR set.

And she keeps getting hotter.

True.

Clean, just like Paula Radcliffe!

That dog w/ the lady at the long jump take-off board literally had no reaction whatsoever to the gun going off.

Wow, she looked so good!

Looks lean and quick. She single?

Cant wait for Athing Mu to send all you American fans home devistated. Again.

womens 800m is one of the best at moment of all track events.

I agree, but the best thing for the event right now would be for Mu to lose to Hodgkinson or Moraa in Budapest this year. As good as the Big Three are, there's a sense that Mu is just a fraction better. A defeat for her would make the event more interesting. For as much as I loved the Mo Farah era in the 5/10, that kind of dominance is not good for any event as a whole (see also the men's PV and women's TJ)

mickey mouse event. mickey mouse track,

but god she looked good. very impressive. esp compared to 3rd and 4th who looked like they were wading through treacle.

long jump dog wins.

Nope, she been dating Reece Prescod for a while now

you're right! rubbish event and track which makes her run even better!

She is a stunning looking woman…

I think 3rd and 4th were in there to ensure there were enough finishers for it to count as a race. The 600 was put on at the last minute when Hodgkinson requested it. The organiser wasn't going to turn down the opportunity to have one of the UKs best athletes at an otherwise C-grade meet. This was a pure TT for Keely because she felt like she could get the record.

Look out for the pacer, Issie Boffey, this year. She ran 2:00 last year and should break 2 outdoors.

Anyone from the UK on this thread? She must be sizzling hot in the Uk right now, no?

Keely, very hot right now!!

Not based on data so you must be basing it on looks. Men's and women's 100 and 200 are more loaded than ever before. 5000 amd 10,000 records keep going down. 400 hurdles have rhe world record holders and close competitors. Men's SP and Pole Vault? Come one. Women's 800 is absolutely an average event right now.
