Laura Trott, British Track National Championships 2015
Katy Marchant and Laura Trott dominated the women's racing at the 2015 British Track National Championships in Manchester over the weekend, claiming seven national titles between them.
Twenty-two-year-old sprinter Marchant took four victories: the 500 metre time trial, keirin, sprint and team sprint alongside Jess Varnish. Her success means that she ranks among the front-runners for next year's Olympic Games in Rio - a feat made all the more remarkable given that she only switched to track cycling in 2013 having previously competed in heptathlon.
