LOS ANGELES (USA): Athing Mu, the remarkable Olympic and World champion in the 800m, remains dedicated to her training. However, her appearance at the upcoming Budapest 2023 World Championships is uncertain.

According to her coach Bobby Kersee, the decision lies within their control, and they are considering the possibility of training through this year and focusing on the events of the following year.

As of now, Athing Mu’s competitive outings have been limited. She participated in only one 800m race at the NYC Golden meet, where she clocked an impressive 1:58.73. Subsequently, she competed in two 1500m races at the US nationals, but her involvement in other events has been minimal.

  1. I think they might be deliberating skipping worlds to get ready for next year’s Olympics. And yes, she may not be in top form due to her not having many races under her belt this season.
