The Australian 800m runner was battered badly by a mid-race fall in the US last month. But that's fuelling her hunger for the Commonwealth Games. 9WWOS CommonwealthGames
A "freak accident" at the World Athletics Championships is fuelling Catriona Bisset's hunger for the Commonwealth Games.
The Newcastle-born athlete no longer has stitches in her leg as she eyes her 800m heat at the Commonwealth Games on Tuesday night and, although pain and swelling remain in her left knee, her running isn't affected. "You can't predict these sorts of things, so I was definitely grieving that opportunity, but it's really lucky I have this next one to back up."All things considered, I'm still in quite a good place.
The gold medallist in that race was England's Keely Hodgkinson, who won silver in the 800m final in Eugene.
