“Jemma Reekie made it three impressive track wins in a week with another superb victory in Poland – to land a World Lead for the women’s 800m outdoors for 2020.

Jemma faced a strong field in Chorzow but again blew them away to win by a decent margin with a new PB of 1:58.63 after pulling clear in the final 150m or so (with no other athlete under 2.00 minutes).

That followed on from a comfortable 1500m win in Bydgoszcz last Wednesday and that first Diamond League victory in the 800m in Stockholm on Sunday.

Jemma’s time also gave her the British U23 record for the 800m, breaking a mark held for some 31 years by Christina Boxer.

Many congratulations to Jemma, coach Andy Young and her family on maintaining what has been a mighty impressive 2020.”
