LORRAINE UGEN is now coached by long jump legend Dwight Phillips and has enjoyed a brilliant start to the year, writes Jason Henderson.
At the Clemson Invitational last month she leapt 6.74m – further than she managed during the whole of 2019 – and shows she is getting back to the seven-metre form she demonstrated in 2018.
The 28-year-old Londoner is now based in Atlanta but plans to return for the Müller Indoor Grand Prix in Glasgow on February 15.
On her coaching switch from Shawn Jackson to Phillips, she told AW: “Dwight was a great athlete and when I was considering moving coaches I wanted to make sure that I chose a coach who either had experience coaching an athlete to a world or Olympic medal or had experience physically doing it themselves, so that they could pass on the knowledge to me on how to also do it myself!

Carbon Footprint
You'd have had to have been running on a different planet to miss all the recent debate about carbon-plated shoes. The talk of bans and performance enhancement has been so widespread that even non-runners are asking their running friends about the potentially magical footwear.
Trail time
WHEN looking for a trail or off-road running shoe, itâs often all about the grip. However, given that no two paths are the same, careful consideration is required. Whatâs the terrain like where youâll wear the shoes the most? If youâll 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 itâs soft then youâll be fine in low-profile shoes, but on those firmer tracks reasonable cushioning will be called for.
Support network
WHEN it comes to âover-pronationâ, a common question is âhow much is over?â. With no hard and fast rules, itâs best to choose a shoe that instinctively feels right. Gait analysis can often assist in helping you make this choice and your specialist running store is always a good place to start if in doubt. To help you make that choice, hereâs a selection of some of the best âsupportâ shoes around.
Need for speed
THE racing shoe segment of the market is becoming somewhat split. This is partially due to the rise of carbon-plated footwear but also the fact that many shoes are becoming much lighter. Here we take a look at some of the leading contenders to toe the line in.
