Hodgkinson says injury lay-off has been 'upsetting'

ATHLETICS: Olympic 800 metres champion Keely Hodgkinson admits she has found it “upsetting” to be out of action for over a year.
-
The 23-year-old has not raced since claiming gold at the Paris 2024 Olympics after sustaining a hamstring injury in February, then suffering setbacks - twice-postponing her season debut.
Hodgkinson will return to the track today in the 800 metres at the Silesia Diamond League meet, though her signature event is not a “diamond” discipline in Poland.
“It's been a frustrating year for real," said Hodgkinson, who still hopes to be in fighting shape for the world championships in Tokyo, now less than one month away.
