Athletics Weekly October-24 Issue (UK customers only)

The new issue of AW magazine, out on October 3, features an exclusive interview with Georgia Bell, Britain’s breakthrough athlete of 2024.

She talks Euan Crumley through an extraordinary year that began with the 30-year-old juggling a career in cyber security alongside her athletics ambitions, but is ending with her as a full-time professional athlete, an Olympic and European medallist, not to mention the British 1500m record-holder.

In an issue packed with big-name interviews, Jason Henderson talks to Jake Wightman about the changes the former world 1500m champion is making in an effort to rid himself of injury problems and get back to the forefront of global middle distance running. Olympic silver medallist Matthew Hudson-Smith talks in-depth, too, about the training he feels has “unlocked a new ability” for him in the 400m, while Martyn Rooney discusses his recipe for success when it comes to masterminding the 4x400m relays.

Elsewhere, we look back at the big moments from the Paris Paralympics and Jasmine Collett talks to Sammi Kinghorn about why becoming a Paralympic champion for the first time has meant so much more than winning a gold medal.

Irish athletes have enjoyed plenty of success this summer too and we take a look into how a long-term plan is starting to bear fruit, while Olympic long jump finalist Jacob Fincham-Dukes discusses what he thinks could be possible with a little more support.

Katharine Merry writes about why more room should be made in the sport for one-off events like Mondo Duplantis v Karsten Warholm, we consider the impact of the Commonwealth Games coming to Glasgow again, plus Cathal Dennehy reports on the talent emerging from the World U20 Championships.

Our packed performance section also provides advice on how to build the right foundations for next year, training insight from Elliot Giles, a coaching conversation with Mark Coogan and the latest footwear reviews from Paul Freary.
