Hodgkinson wins Athlos 800m in black hooded Nike speedsuit

Keely Hodgkinson won the Athlos London 800m in 1:56.40 at StoneX Stadium on September 18, 2026, bursting clear on the back straight to finish more than two seconds ahead of Valentina Rosamilia. She took a $65,000 prize and a Tiffany & Co. silver crown at the first Athlos event outside the United States, founded by Alexis Ohanian. Hodgkinson debuted a black hooded Nike speedsuit, saying the Nike project went down a treat at the all-women's speed meeting. She raced after a hamstring tear at the European Championships, an MRI finding of a rare split hamstring tendon, and a second-place finish to Audrey Werro in Budapest. Contested: No disagreement on result, time or prizes. Hodgkinson danced on stage with other winners and said life is supposed to be about enjoying it. Sha'Carri Richardson won the 100m in 10.80 seconds and said it is going to continue to grow and the world is watching. Alyssa Jones said after her long jump win that she just graduated college and was broke, so this was amazing. Ohanian, on Kazimierska overtaking Hunter Bell in the mile, said Georgia looked in control but Klaudia said not today, and that is why we love sport. Conditions were 17 Celsius. Hodgkinson planned rest before the next season.
