Laura Kenny, the most decorated female cyclist in Olympic history, retires at age 31.

Kenny's retirement comes unexpectedly four months before the Paris Summer Games.

She previously intended to compete in the upcoming Paris Olympics.

Family considerations, including the arrival of her second child, influenced Kenny's decision to retire.

Kenny leaves the sport with a British female record of five Olympic gold medals.

Her husband, Jason Kenny, is the record holder for Olympic gold medals in track cycling with seven.

Laura Kenny's departure from professional cycling concludes a highly successful and inspiring career.
