Tokyo 2025 Preview # 6, Georgia Hunter-Bell selects women’s 800
Especially from the British point of view, 800 meters of women are really a fascinating race. Heely Hodgkinson, the 2024 Olympic champion is the most beloved. Wounded for most of this season, he only launched two times, but the shocking times were recorded 1: 54.74 and 1. 55.69. Imagine what can run if he competes.
What is more interested in the exchange rate is that the Georgian hunter call in 2024 was elected to the Olympic bronze medalist at 800 m in Tokyo. Supposedly and Georgia are training partners with the same coach. I’m intriguing how they will prepare for the rest. Will they be dinner together, sit on the bus on the bus on the bus and get warm together? Or will they all attract all? I remember talking to Laura Muir and Jemma Rekie about the occasions when they are in the same race and had the same coach, they told me that they would discuss themselves individually with their coach.
Recently, for the briefing for the British Athletics writers, Georgia shared the process with us at 800. (For example, what I mean when he spoke to us last week, he was a training camp. Where his roommate was a certain hoosion, Hodginson.)
There was a real opportunity Double – Remembering Kelly Holmes both winner of the 2004 Olympics. Georgia explained the doubts that they had twice. It was a little concern about me, because I was quite convinced that I wouldn’t sleep all night after 1000 million finals, when you have media, antiboping, physics, all those items. And it really will really affect me for 800, even if I’m best to be in recovery it would just be logical. “
Deciding to choose one: which one? “The dilemma came” in the potential. “Medal combat position both.” He confessed that there was no easy answer, “so it was just an analysis. We talked to several different people.
The nature, term, process of reaching the finals were all factors. “800 and 1500 Different. I think 800 heating is definitely much more cruel than 1500. 1500 meters is quite generous, usually the top five. So you have a room to make a mistake and return. Meanwhile, there is no error in the 800-meter semifinal. It’s only the best two. It definitely entered into the decision of the meaning that you must come 100% ready. You can’t run out. “
Georgia also stressed that the decision is only for 2025. “So I will definitely return to 1500.
Georgia also said that he had 30 m bell with Kelly Holmes.
Also just give advice on emotions. It is a lot of adrenaline and a large high and strain through race. He had a lot of useful advice there I really appreciated.
Believing that they can win. That’s exactly how it goes. But we just support and strengthen it in this position.
Of course, the race will not just be strict and between Georgia. The GB hoped that Jemma Reiki also be there for the fourth at the Tokyo Olympics and the fastest unparkable for the Paris Olympic final. Then there is a Audrey Werro who won the diamond league finals with a Swiss record 1: 55.91. There will be a second kidnapped, Mary Moraa, the second is better to be good in medals. Surely a race to look forward to.
