    Nicely done by Katie Snowden.

    A personal best of four minutes 02.77 seconds takes her through in sixth place.

    Six women break clear for a relatively calm finish, and Faith Kipyegon takes the win.

    A nervy wait for Revee Walcott-Nolan now to see of she will qualify as a fastest loser.

    Laura Muir speaking on BBC One: "I'm so excited to get started. All my flatmates have raced already so I was really itching to get going. It was nice to get that first run out the way. I'm feeling comfortable.

    "It's just a matter of being as well prepared as possible, I had a really good lead up to this and I felt really confident.

    "It's nice to get stared. I'm more prepared than ever. Before, my speed was my weakness, but I've improved so much over the last couple years with that. I'm in the best shape I can be in, hopefully any situation I can deal with."

    Muir focused on securing medalpublished at 01:34 British Summer Time 2 August 2021

    Women's 1500m heats

    Muir had the option of contesting both the 800m and 1500m events in Tokyo but made the "very hard decision" to drop the shorter distance.

    "Two events was the original plan, but what I really want is a medal and the level of competition is so intense in the 800m," she told BBC Sport.

    "I know I can be up there, but I'd hate to be mediocre at both and, while it was emotionally a tough decision to make, mentally it was clear to me that the 1500m is where I needed to be."
