Queen of leaving it all on the track 🥰 Jess Hull 🇦🇺 shows once again that she’s ready for any race, any time with another ambitious championship double. Hull ran 3:59.97 for ninth in the World Ultimate 1500m last night and came back just 24 hours later for the fastest 5000m of her career, kicking well to a 14:32.39 runner-up finish. Hull’s final 200m tonight was 28.92 after closing in 29.95 for her final 200m in the 1500m 🤯
