Molly Caudery targets Paris 2024 Olympic medal after impressive year

Must read

Caudery has been on the radar for quite some time – she was the youngest member of the England athletics team at the 2018 Commonwealth Games before going on to win her first major medal four years later when she got silver for England in Birmingham.

She spent almost two years as part of the University of Miami’s athletics team before the Covid-19 pandemic saw her come back home and train at Loughborough University, where she really began to improve.

But even with those improvements, she still felt that her main Olympic chance would be in Los Angeles rather than Paris this summer: “I always said that LA 2028 was my real goal.

“Paris would have been kind of just a tester, go there, get the experience and the really set the goals for LA.

“But I’ve got to play the hand I’m dealt, which is very good at the minute, and had to re-evaluate my goals and set them for Paris now.

“But there’s so many more years to come and more opportunities to come, which is extremely exciting.”
