"It's amazing to be coached by Richard because he teaches me world-class coaching techniques."
Our rising star for October, Celine Obinna-Alo, chats through what she has learnt from sprint coach Richard Kilty in our latest magazine 💫
The 16-year-old's breakthrough began to gather real momentum at the end of 2025, when she clocked 7.34 for 60m to break the British under-17 indoor record 💥
The progress continued this summer at the European Under-18 Championships, where Obinna-Alo claimed bronze and ran a personal best of 11.45 in the 100m ⚡

“The only thing left for me was death.”
Almost 10 years ago, Luvo Manyonga conquered the athletics world. But he was addicted to crystal meth, and his life sank into crime and drugs.
Now, after a brutal beating nearly killed him, he’s back at the top.

Hopefully @RKilty1 makes an appearance for the World Champs
He's always been insightful on the technical aspects & honest in saying what he thinks of performances whenever he's been on
Too many of the current crop afraid to even be constructively critical of people they know
