Helen, who is a member of the Preston Harriers club after starting her career there as a junior, produced a career best time, and smashed the British record, but finished only sixth in her heat.
Speaking to BBC Sport straight after the race, Helen refused to be too downbeat: ”I was so excited before the race and I saw my husband waving his flag in the crowd at the start which I thought was a good omen.
“You can't ask for any more than a personal best at the Olympics can you?'"
