On the 22nd of February 2021 Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced the government’s roadmap to cautiously ease lockdown restrictions. 

If this roadmap is successful, then competitive sporting events will be back. I finished off this interview by asking the Hyltons about their aims for 2021 and onwards. 

Shannon mentioned that her aim is to “qualify for the Tokyo Olympic Games, that is literally the aim. Also, to stay happy and healthy and keep enjoying the sport.” 

With the lockdown in place and no end in sight, the Hyltons had to find new ways in which to train while minimising their risk of getting Covid-19. 

When it came to training Shannon mentioned that “In terms of training with our Strength and Conditioning Coaches, we bought a lot of equipment, so we could carry on training over Zoom or Facetime. In terms of trackwork we used video streams. We did hill runs which is not the same as being on the track, but it was the best we could do”. 

Recently I had the opportunity to talk with Shannon and Cherice Hylton about their 2020 and how it impacted their career. During this interview we focused on their recovery from injury and how COVID changed their personal and professional lives. 

We talked about their pre-race routine. They mentioned that “Nutrition is very important for us. But before big meets we try to refrain from red meats which slows down muscle fibres. We get a good night’s sleep and listen to music on race days and focus on staying very relaxed”.
