Keely Hodgkinson after winning the 800m Olympic silver medal and breaking the British record Keely Hodgkinson’s Tokyo silver medal will be a defining moment for inspiring the next generation of Team GB athletes, that’s according to former Olympic gold medallist Sally Gunnell. She also set a new national record in the process, beating Kelly Holmes mark of 1.56.21 minutes that the double Olympic champion set in 1995. The 19-year-old made the historic final alongside fellow Brits Jemma Reekie and Alex Bell, who finished fourth and seventh respectively. It was Britain’s first medal on the track in Tokyo, with the sport aided by funding generated by National Lottery players, who have helped transform Team GB s Olympic fortunes over the past two decades, as well as supporting good causes including community initiatives.
