We've been busy working on content for the awesome @NightOf10kPBs #Highgate10k on 19 May. Official event programme is coming. In the meantime, here's an interview we did with @SvenPres @EuroAthletics who talks grassroots athletics, Bislett Games and his best 10,000m memories.

But why prepare for London 2017 in France? What's wrong with Loughborough, Birmingham or London?
