Hodgkinson 'closer than ever' to breaking 800m outdoor record
Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson says she feels "closer than ever" to breaking the women's 800m outdoor record - the longest-standing world record in athletics.
Jarmila Kratochvilova set the record of one minute 53.28 seconds in Munich in July 1983.
But Britain's Hodgkinson, who broke the event's indoor world record on Thursday, believes she can surpass Kratochvilova and achieve something that will "cement her place as the greatest of all time".
"It's not an easy feat and there's a reason it has stood for so long, " Hodgkinson told BBC Sport.
