Best of British

Congratulations to Phillips Idowu and Jessica Ennis who were this week voted Male and Female Athlete of the Year at the British Athletics’ Writers Association annual awards dinner. Ennis has also been named as Sportsperson of the year by the Observer and should if the judges have any sense be in contention for the BBC’s Sports Personality of the Year.




Ennis was unable to compete at the Beijing Olympics after an MRI scan revealed a metatarsal stress fracture and a stress fracture to her navicular following the Hypo Meeting in Götzis Austria (June 2008). Ennis’s account of the injury and the subsequent rehabilitation shows how much the injury affected her and the important role that her physio and coach have. Makes interesting reading.  Ennis successfully returned to the heptathlon and won gold at the World Championships in Berlin earlier this year.
