UKA and the London Marathon today announced a funding partnership which will further enhance the successful UKA Endurance Programme and help to produce world class British distance athletes.

London Marathon have agreed to an annual investment up to £150,000 which will be added to UKA’s existing significant investment into the Endurance Programme, which has been developed over the past year under the leadership of Ian Stewart.

The funding will be used to help finance altitude training camps in Iten, Kenya and Font Romeu, France, both established altitude training centres which are proven to have physiological benefits for endurance athletes. Font Romeu has long been the European base for Paula Radcliffe, whilst Iten is host to many of the world’s leading distance athletes. (more…)
