I still maintain that this final won't be slow. Tsegay is a noted front-runner and I think she knows her best chance of placing highly is to make it fast. She wasn't in any of the slower finals in 2015, 2016 or 2017.
In a fast race, say 3:57/58-ish which is what it could be, Our Laura has as good a chance as anyone.
at her best she is as good as anyone including hassan, hopefully she is at her best but we wont really know until the final
Two fantastic days from Kat. I really didn’t expect her to win but she showed such steel. Completely deserved victory and British record. 7000 in Tokyo?
Emotional here; Been so long getting her to maximise her ability. The best bit? She just scored 165pts more than Thiam has ever scored in a Championship heptathlon. She can believe now.
the KJT roller coaster takes a new and extraordinary step towards athletics immortality ... at quarter past midnight in front of an empty stadium, I can honestly say that was one of the most moving moments I have experienced....
I should think Mr Uibo is going to be happier with his silver than Mrs Uibo with hers.
Brilliant breakthrough from Kaul.
SMU's face looked like thunder when she came off the track... She ran *under* 48.4, something that only 3 other women in history had ever done before... and she came away with "just" the silver medal
