The Independent Uganda: You get the Truth we Pay the Price
Tokyo, Japan | THE INDEPENDENT | Uganda’s middle distance duo of Halima Nakaayi and Winnie Nanyondo fell short of the final of the 800m race after losing their respective heats Saturday.
Nakaayi (2:04.44), the 800m champion came eighth in a race won by Jamaica’s Natoya Goule in 1:59:57 and Great Britain’s Jemma Reekie who came second in 1:59:77.
Athletics can be very lonely, but there is a great spirit among competitors once races are run. This is Noelle Yarigo from Benin wipes away Ugandan Winnie Nanyondo’s tears after both missed out on 800m final. pic.twitter.com/tHCI1iFXHY

Commonwealth bronze medalist Winnie Nanyondo also faltered, finishing fifth in her semifinal heat despite posting a season-best time of 1:59:84. The heat was won by Great Britain’s Keely Hodgkinson in a time of 1:59:12.
According to the competition format, the first two runners in each heat book a slot to the final and the next two fastest across all heats also advance to the Final.
Now, Nanyondo remains with one chance when she will lineup in the 1,500m. Her personal best in the race is 4:06.13.
