England middle-distance runner Georgia Hunter Bell is targeting a medal.
She said: “I feel like winning medals is the most important thing.
“So I would rather win a medal in one than, like, come fifth or make the final in both. That’s kind of cool, but there’s nothing better than winning a medal.
“The thing with the 1500m with [Olympic champion and world record holder] Faith Kipyegon is, even though I know people are beatable on the day, you never know what happens, but it is very much like racing for silver and bronze in the 1500m. And there is so much depth in the 1500m – everyone is very, very close. That is a big consideration.
“Whereas I feel like in the 800m, if you make the final, anything can happen.”
