TWIN TARGETS LIE AHEAD FOR ALEX YEE AS HE PREPARES FOR A HIGHGATE 10,000m RETURN
-
ALEX YEE insists his triathlon and athletics ambitions can operate in tandem for the moment, with the 21-year old potentially eyeing a spot on the Great Britain team for both sports at this summer’s Olympics, writes Euan Crumley.
The Kent AC athlete will compete at the Highgate Night of the 10,000m PBs, the event at which he was British champion in 2018, with the aim of landing a shot at the 25-lap distance in Tokyo.
Though he is not about to make any bullish predictions, and there is a tight turnaround given that the triathlon is on July 27 and the men’s 10,000m final takes place on July 31, Yee is clearly keen to challenge himself.

Trail time
WHEN looking for a trail or off-road running shoe, it’s often all about the grip. However, given that no two paths are the same, careful consideration is required. What’s the terrain like where you’ll wear the shoes the most? If you’ll be negotiating soft, wet and muddy conditions then look for deeper lugs. For tackling gravel tracks and forest trails then more evenly spaced lugs will work better. When it comes to cushioning, consider how hard the ground will be; if it’s soft then you’ll be fine in low-profile shoes, but on those firmer tracks reasonable cushioning will be called for.
