Keely Hodgkinson dominated the women’s 800m at the Athlos meet in London, wearing a dramatic all-black Nike speedsuit she called “pretty sick” as she won in 1:56.40, taking a share of a roughly $1.06 million prize pot (about $65,000 for the winner). The spectacle-event, founded by Alexis Ohanian and featuring Serena Williams, signals Athlos’s bold fashion-meets-sport format and possible league expansion.
