A third added: “Besties in front of and behind the camera.”
Hodgkinson also added an extra caption to one post showing off Robyn’s wedding dress in all its glory as she said: “Most Gawjus bride everrrrr.”
After the fun and games of the wedding, the Brit is set for a rematch with Audrey Werro after her world record time that won the European championships ahead of Hodgkinson.
The pair are set to do battle once again with a meeting at the Weltklasse Zürich Diamond League meeting on August 27.
She told the BBC of the Zurich contest: “I signed myself up for Zurich because I knew everyone was in it but me.
“I want to be in with the best, and I think that’s going to bring out the best in me.
“There’s no point in me going to a race and time-trialling at the front.
“The more fun is when you’ve got everyone together, everyone’s going at it, and you don’t know which way it’s going to go.”
