AW – Athletics Weekly Magazine | November 2026
The latest issue of AW focuses on athletes receiving the recognition they deserve.
First, columnist Katharine Merry highlights those who have quietly gone through 2026 without the acclaim that their performances have merited, then she and the AW team select some of the names that have produced the goods down the years but haven’t always received the plaudits.
It’s also awards season and this issue sees the launch of this year’s AW Readers’ Awards. In the pages you’ll find the shortlists for a range of categories, so get ready to cast your votes.
There are a number of exclusive interviews, too. Emerging Australian talent Cam Myers talks about his plans to shake up the middle distance world order, while former 100m world record-holder Asafa Powell discusses his move into coaching, paying tribute to his later mentor and what the current crop top sprinters need to do in their search for speed.
Sandi Morris finished 2026 with a flourish, winning the Ultimate Championship pole vault title, and she talks about everything from finding success to her love of snakes. Hiraku Kitaguchi also left Budapest with the top prize and outlines how working with men's world record-holder Jan Železný has helped her to find the magic touch with her javelin throwing again.
Elsewhere in the issue, Jason Henderson takes a deep dive into the world of cross-country and uncovers a corner of the sport that is struggling at the elite end but thriving when it comes to the grassroots scene. What does the future hold for it?
Former sprinter Beth Dobbin also lays bare how difficult it has become for her living with ME, while Verity Ockenden writes about the financial perils of chasing a career as a professional athlete and Mary Peters recalls her golden, and defiant, Olympic moment from Munich in 1972.
