CJ Ujah has revealed he turned to meditation because he wanted to find more compassion in his life amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The Team GB sprinter, who is in Tokyo preparing for the Olympics, now listens to a Buddhism audio book and meditates daily.
Ujah missed the World Championships in 2019 with a back injury, having previously helped Great Britain to the 4x100m world title in London two years earlier.
