Laura Muir and Georgia Bell facing a tough task though. Faith Kipyegon a massive favourite to win. A fight for the other medals is looking really tough.

Oh my word.
Georgia Bell - Take a bow.
A magnificent BRONZE.

That was a brilliant, brilliant run.

Even more brilliant than I thought.
She has wiped 4 seconds off her PB. Astonishing stuff.
FOUR FUCKING SECONDS!!

HOLY COW .
