Reekie 'would love' to run 800m & mile at Commonwealths

"The mile is a really cool event and it's nice to do something different.

"I'm just really excited to learn and to move in. I'm not moving up full time, I'm going to go back to the 800m outdoors.

"I'm enjoying it so far. I think in the future I might be a great 1500m runner. So, I'm kind of dipping my toes in to see how it goes. I'm enjoying it, the training's really good."

With her recent indoor success, the two-time Olympian is pleased with her form heading to Torun, but insists her enjoyment remains the priority before the outdoor season.

Reekie spoke candidly about how failing to make the 2024 Olympic 800m final pushed her to prioritise her mental health.

The 1500m heats in Torun are on Friday, with the final taking place on Sunday.

"It's definitely getting there," she said. "We'll see how I go this weekend over that distance. I'm definitely having a lot of fun, and that's the main aim.

"I've got no pressure this weekend at all, other than myself. So, I'm just going to go out there and have fun and see what I can do.

"The past two outdoor seasons I've missed out on finals, so that'll definitely be the first step forward to get into that final."

Reekie, alongside fellow Team GB star Laura Muir, started working with coach Jon Bigg in March 2023, but has brought other people, including psychologists, into her set-up to extract small advantages.

"I've been with Jon for a while now, and we've been working on lots and I've got stronger and stronger as the years have gone by," she said.

"It's just adding in those one per cent gains and new people to your team, which I'm really enjoying. I think athletes always can work on something."
