There had been questions over where she would focus her medal hopes leading up to the Olympics.

The Dubliner is set to put her focus into the individual 400m event, where she has a good chance at a medal.

Adeleke took part in the European Championships mixed relay event in Rome last month, where Ireland won gold and smashed the national record.

The mixed relay win in June was one of the sporting highlights of the year, with the four runners gaining plaudits all across the country.

However, just two days later, Adeleke noted that her legs felt 'heavy' after she won silver and ran a national record of 49.07 in the 400 semi-finals.

The Tallaght woman lost narrowly out on gold, which was won by Polish runner Natalia Kaczmarek, who didn't line out for the mixed relay event.

Ireland will start their 4x400m mixed relay event on Friday, August 2.

The mixed 4x400m relay team will be led by Chris O’Donnell who will hand over to Sophie Becker, then Thomas Barr and Sharlene Mawdsley finishing off the race.

Even if the team get through to the final, Adeleke is still expected to stay out of the event.

Adeleke now has sole focus on the individual women's 400m race, where the heats will start on Monday, August 5.
