  My Hidden Race is the story of Olympic medallist Anyika Onuora, who stood on the podium at every major championship in athletics. 
   
  This book won’t go into detail about the technicalities of her sport or the beauty of the Olympic spirit however. 
   
  In the era of the Black Lives Matter and Me Too, this is an unflinching testimony of what it takes to pursue your dreams as a Black British woman against all odds. 
   
  This three-time Olympian will lift the lid on the reality of life as a black female athlete in Britain in a way that nobody else has done before her. 
   
  Nothing is off the record. She is revealing her life for the first time in this book with complete fearlessness. 
   
  There have been far too many years of silence caught in a system. Now Anyika is determined to make up for lost time and use her story to inspire and heal others. 
   
  My Hidden Race will take you into a world that often takes place far from the spotlight of the Olympic torch and shines an intense light on the brutal reality of professional sport for many black females.
