RIP Joe Bugner, who won English Schools discus gold as a teenage athlete in 1964 before becoming one of the world's best heavyweight boxers, fighting Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier & Henry Cooper among others.
Such is the hype and prestige behind the UTMB these days, victory in Chamonix is on a par with a big-city marathon or even a world track & field title in Tokyo. Congrats @TomEvansUltra 👏 athleticsweekly.com/news/tom-evans…
The Emsley Carr Mile belatedly finds a good home for 2025 🥳 athleticsweekly.com/news/meetings/…
This great resource has now gone into storage and has six months to find a home. It remains a travesty that athletics is one of the few major sports in Britain that doesn't have a national museum. athleticsweekly.com/news/british-a…
Not quite as fast from @keelyhodgkinson in Lausanne tonight but a great time and convincing victory in difficult conditions, taking down the meet record held by Maria Mutola. athleticsweekly.com/news/keely-hod…
Keely Hodgkinson was beaten in Lausanne two years ago but judging by her season opener in Silesia she will be strong favourite in the Swiss city this time. athleticsweekly.com/news/keely-hod…
After not racing for a year, you might have expected Keely Hodgkinson to be race rusty or lacking in speed or stamina, or both. Not a chance as she blasts to 1:54.74 in Poland. athleticsweekly.com/news/keely-hod…
Keely Hodgkinson storms to sensational comeback win in Poland. In her first race since the Paris Games last year, the Olympic champion clocks world lead of 1:54.74 at the Diamond League in Silesia. 🖊️ @Jason_AW athleticsweekly.com/news/keely-hod…
This summer has seen some spectacular performances by young athletes such as Cooper Lutkenhaus, Kelly Doualla and Innes FitzGerald but bridging the gap from junior to senior success is one of the trickiest tasks in the sport. More here 👇 athleticsweekly.com/news/opinion/t…
Innes FitzGerald has shown this summer that she is a winner on the track as well as cross country. The 19-year-old demonstrated in Tampere this week why she is one of Britain's most promising athletes. athleticsweekly.com/news/fitzgeral…
All the news from Tampere as Innes FitzGerald gets her European U20 Champs campaign off to a winning start. athleticsweekly.com/news/innes-fit…
Innes FitzGerald wins the Euro U20 5000m title by almost half a lap and is only 6sec outside Agate Caune's CBP. Innes could've saved energy for the 3000m but her trademark style is to run flat out.

On this day in 1995 Jonathan Edwards set the current world triple jump record of 18.29m. "It would be pretty cool to be on my deathbed and still a world record-holder," he tells @PUMA 📷 @AthleticsImages athleticsweekly.com/news/jonathan-…
It was impressive watching Max Burgin front-run 1:43.92 in blustery conditions in Birmingham on Sunday. But then news broke of Cooper Lutkenhaus clocking 1:42.27 at the US Champs aged 16. A few thoughts on his run here 👇 athleticsweekly.com/news/opinion/l…
Who was your athlete of the weekend at the 2025 UK Champs? For sheer quality it's hard to look beyond sprint double winner Zharnel Hughes. athleticsweekly.com/news/zharnel-h…
Interesting interview with Jürgen Straub, the man who split Covett in the Moscow 1500m, in the next issue of @AthleticsWeekly magazine.

London has a tremendous track record of staging global athletics events but isn't a shoo-in when it comes to hosting 2029 World Champs. athleticsweekly.com/news/opinion/w…
How do Brits qualify for the World Cross Country Champs in Tallahassee if there's no official trial? athleticsweekly.com/news/meetings/…
Max Burgin runs an 800m PB of 1:42.36 in London as he creeps closer to Seb Coe's 1981 national record of 1:41.73. Now No.3 on UK all-time rankings behind Coe and Ben Pattison's 1:42.27.
