Better take up the trumpet
Posted by simon on 1/11/2007 on simon's blog

Great interview with masters mile phenom Nolan Shaheed has just been posted by Dan Empfield on the triathlon site Slowtwitch.

Nolan is a multiple world record-holder and a leading jazz trumpeter, once the lead for the Count Basie orchestra and a highly sought-after session man who has played with Natalie Cole, Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross and Phil Collins. The interview has details of his slightly strange training routine, which can see him running up to 2 hours a day, six days a week -- on a track. He says he doesn't get bored, because of all the jazz impro he can hear in his head!
