Keith Bateman Interview: The Running Master READ HERE

Interesting that Keith has switched to light weight flexible flats for his racing and training, plus he does half his running barefoot on grass.
i just bought a pair of the Nike elite retro 1976 shoes for an amazing £29.
I will be testing them out and reporting back soon!
Raced at Birkenhead park last night but used it more as a fast training session, holding back until the last mile.
finished with 29.10 for the 5 miles.
Next week i start Marius Bakken's Marathon training week one after following 3 weeks of introduction training.
