  • The Inside Track
    The official autobiography of the Rio Olympics’ golden couple LAURA TROTT & JASON KENNY THE INSIDE TRACK This inspirational autobiography explores the world of two of the UK’s most successful athletes, how they were inspired to take up cycling, the highs and lows of competing, and what it is like being cycling’s golden couple. Through an integrated narrative Laura Trott and Jason Kenny retrace the steps of a journey to gold-medal success at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics. Taking the reader behind the scenes of British cycling’s Olympic training and preparation (both mentally and physically); this book explores the difficulties of turning professional; the personal sacrifces endured along the way; and their inspirations and motivations to keep competing. From Bolton and Cheshunt to Beijing, London and Rio, this combined autobiography has Laura and Jason’s relationship at its core, while detailing how being in the unique position of competing in the same sport, but not together or against each other, impacts their lives, and how it can be both a blessing and a curse. It compares their different experiences of racing at junior level, and explores the role of family, friends and relationships along the way that led them to the senior circuit, to meeting each other and, eventually, falling in love. Reliving their individual successes at the World Championships and Commonwealth Games, and the Olympic performances Published in Hardback that cemented their positions at the very top of their sport, Laura 10th November 2016 and Jason explain what keeps them going, and exactly how one Michael O’Mara Books becomes a nation’s most successful Olympic athlete.

Egypt 2021 28 3 4 Letter from Cairo, Issue 36th In Egypt, Hands of the World Compete & Fraternize In 2021, handball teams of 32 countries meet in hospitable Egypt from 13 to 31 January to vie for the title of world champions at the 27th IHF World Men’s Handball Championship. There is no doubt that Egypt’s hosting of this major sporting event has im- portant implications for Egypt, its people and the world. This is the largest global sporting event ever held anywhere in the world since the covid-19 pandemic, a year ago. The organization of this competi- tion in such circumstances reflects the extent of Egyptian capabilities in all areas of health, logistics, security and sports under these exceptional cir- cumstances. Undoubtedly, the international consensus to convene the championship at this time, despite all the current realities around the world, confirms confi- dence in Egypt’s success in dealing with the pandemic at all levels, and in the ability of the State, Egyptian people and the youth of the world participating in the championship, to come up with the 2021 edition in the best form, to the enjoyment of hundreds of millions of handball fans at a time when all the peoples of the world need moments of hope, pleasure and fair competi- tion after a very difficult year for everyone.
