AW – Athletics Weekly Magazine | AW August 2021
The August issue of AW features an in-depth review of the Tokyo Olympics. We delve into the main events and the biggest talking points from a Games like no other.
There's a close look at both of the 400m hurdles world records which were set in Japan, as two-time Olympian Eilidh Doyle explains how those remarkable performances were achieved, while we also examine the other runs, jumps and throws which got the world talking.
Another former Olympic hurdler, Jack Green, also turns the spotlight on the mental health of the athletes who were placed front and centre. He explains why it's so important for sportspeople to be more open and why support is crucial in such an emotionally charged atmosphere.
With the Olympics having just come to a close, attention will soon be turning back towards Tokyo as we look ahead to the Paralympics. In this issue we speak to British Para Athletics head coach Paula Dunn about aiming to change attitudes and perceptions, while there are interviews with stars Richard Whitehead, Sammi Kinghorn and Tanni Grey-Thompson, as well as a rundown of who to look out for.
A packed performance section features the latest news, tips on dealing with injury from heptathlete Niamh Emerson, training insight from sprinter Sophie Hahn, physio guidance from Paul Hobrough and footwear reviews from Paul Freary.
With all of our other regular features also thrown in, we have every athletics angle covered!
