In this episode I am joined by Adam Craig, professional athlete for Team New Balance Manchester. After running his debut marathon in Valencia we sit down and talk about how his legs are doing, his goals for 2023 and his advice on how to get involved competitively in the sport. 

Team New Balance Manchester are the only professional running team in the UK, with a proper running setup. Adam Craig talks about what it is like to be a professional athlete that is a part of a team rather than a solo runner. Adam talks about why the UK scene needs more professional teams and how it would help the sport progress. 

This year Adam also competed at the Highgate Night of 10k PB's where he ran 29:50 after an altitude training camp. We talk about how training at altitude can help improve a runners performance and why Adam chose to move to the road after Highgate. 

As a professional athlete Adam has so much more to offer in the marathon and I can't wait to see what his professional marathon career has in store for him.
