This is a light hearted piece on Katerine Johnson-Thompson, as she prepares for the heptathlon in Doha. Stuart wrote this as his last column on the British Championships/World Trials.
Two days in the life of KJT
The Heptathlon is not part of the British Athletics Championships, so what does a heptathlete like Katerina Johnson-Thompson do? Well she did her own Quadathlon.
The results were as follows

High Jump 1.90
She could not fit the long jump into her schedule but she already has the Doha standard if she wants to do an individual event as well.
