Mary Moraa inspires future champions at Woodlands Star International School
Mary Moraa is inspiring young athletes during her off-season as she prepares for a strong 2025 comeback, following an impressive 2024 season with multiple wins and podium finishes.
“My biggest annoyance with Trevor is his complete lack of ego. He’s ridiculously humble. Someone might be saying they’ve been watching the Olympics and expressing an opinion about one of his athletes, and he won’t say anything,” Jenny Meadows said.
“He’s a people person who also enjoys the social side of everything. It’s possibly why he didn’t get to the top as an athlete. To do that you’ve got to be quite selfish. Trevor is very selfless, but it’s what makes him a good coach.”
At the Paris Olympic Games, Hodgkinson was impressive as she claimed the win in a time of 1:56.72. Tsige Duguma and Mary Moraa finished second and third respectively.
The Briton enjoyed an unbeaten 2024 season in the 800m, starting with the Prefontaine Classic where she pipped reigning world champion Mary Moraa to carry the day. She crossed the finish line in an impressive 1:55.78.
Hodgkinson then defended her title at the European Athletics Championships, winning the 800m dominantly in a time of 1:58.65. She went on to claim top honours in the women’s 800m at the FBK Games in Hengelo before winning the race at the Diamond League Meeting in London.
Keely Hodgkinson was forced to end her season after the Olympic Games due to a slight injury but she will surely be out to maintain the winning streak next season.
