Athletes targeted over body image

Two of our region's female sporting stars have been the target of personal comments about their appearance.

Sheffield's Jessica Ennis has spoken out for the first time today on ITV1's Daybreak about reportedly being described as "fat" by a senior figure at UK athletics.

Rebecca Adlington, from Mansfield, has today vowed to avoid the internet during the Olympic Games, after becoming the target of internet trolls - people who post offensive and anonymous insults online. She responded on Twitter to the comments.
