A Milestone Moment of Redemption for Kerr, a Setback for Hodgkinson Josh Kerr made history on Saturday at the London Diamond League athletics event by breaking the mile world record.
Keely Hodgkinson's bid to break the 800m women's world record was thwarted, however, after she suffered an injury during training.
Kerr's achievement is all the more impressive given that he bettered Hicham El Guerrouj's mark of 3:43. 13 set in 1999 by over half a second.
