ABI'S WINNING HABIT

AFTER winning English Schools and SIAB Schools pentathlon titles last year, 14-year-old Abi Pawlett hopes to step up to under-17 level in style in 2018 and gain another opportunity to represent England.

Her international title in Glasgow in November capped off a sensational year, which also saw the Stockport Harrier win the England Athletics 100m and hexathlon titles, along with English Schools 75m hurdles silver.

“My first national medal came in February when I won the national indoor 60m hurdles gold,” says Abi. “This was amazing as I had been third-fastest going into the competition and I came out of it with a top five of all-time British runs with 8.86 and my first national gold.”

Another special moment came outdoors, when Abi was able to stand on the national podium alongside her training partners. “I won the national hexathlon, which felt incredible, as it was a long, hard weekend,” she recalls.

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.
