On Wednesday, New Balance announced they have partnered with Meb Keflezighi—one of the most decorated American marathoners ever. Keflezighi will run the Boston Marathon this year to mark the 10-year anniversary of winning the race in 2014.The deal marks Keflezighi’s departure from Skechers, after signing with the brand in 2011. For over a decade, he was the face of the company, and he even had his own shoe line, the GOmeb.
Now, he’s still taking training seriously, but most of his runs are around four to six miles, with regular off days.“Sometimes I’m like, ‘That used to be my cooldown,’” he joked.Keflezighi was sidelined for most of December because of a quad injury that he suffered on Thanksgiving, but he gradually increased his training volume and long runs to a point where he feels prepared for the race. At the peak of his block, he hit 22 miles for his long run.
