    Team GB star Keely Hodgkinson goes for gold in the Olympics on Monday night (5 August) as the favourite in the women’s 800m final.

    Hodgkinson, 22, cruised through to the big event after finishing fastest of all the semi-finalists at Stade de France in Paris on Sunday.

    She laid down an impressive time of 1:56.86, and will now look to go one better than her Tokyo 2020 silver medal performance.

    But just how fast is Hodgkinson compared to the average person?

    Following the semi-finals, BBC Sport answered that question, challenging fans to match her pace on a treadmill for as long as possible - with some amusing results.
