An interview with Jake Wightman, who talks candidly about the struggles, after that stunning world 1500m title in Eugene, that led to him splitting with his dad Geoff as his coach. They are father and son again, and ultimately that’s what matters. thetimes.com/article/218794…

ENJOYMENT IS KEY #SALtogether @WightmanGeoff coached @JakeSWightman to World title but he tells @paulajradcliffe @Thommo10k that, in younger age groups, main issue for young athletes is: Are they looking forward to it? important advice @SALDevelopment @SAL_Coaching @EilidhDoyle
