Keely Hodgkinson returns to a winning streak

It’s been a momentous week for the reigning Olympic women's 800m champion Keely Hodgkinson, who claimed victory in the women's 800m at the London Diamond League on Saturday, 18th July. Running in front of a sold-out home crowd of 60,000 at the London Stadium, she held off her close friend and fierce Dutch rival Femke Broeders-Bol with a winning time of 1:56.21. 

The win marks a return to winning form for the English middle-distance runner following a difficult outdoor opening to her 2026 summer season. Following this success she is keeping up the momentum – the athlete has just dropped her first-ever Nike signature athlete collection of apparel and footwear. The range, designed to reflect her “generational speed and understated, elegant style”, includes new colourways of key Nike Running road, race and track silhouettes, including the Vomero Plus, Pegasus 42, Vaporfly 4 and Victory 2, alongside a selection of performance apparel.

Having found her stride on the track, Hodgkinson is now shifting her focus toward the European Athletics Championships, which are scheduled to begin on 10th August, 2026, on home soil in Birmingham, UK.

Her new collection is available globally via Nike.com and selected retailers.
