Elite coaching special - Nic Bideau, coach to Craig Mottram
The secrets of Mottram’s success - getting the grounding
It is no fluke that Mottram has become one of the world’s greatest distance runners. But for Craig Mottram training began early, with the basics. Nic said: “There is no doubt he is a very talented athlete and has got good equipment to work with.
“When he first came to train aged 17 or 18 he was already very fit and had done lots of training on the bike and in the pool for triathlon. He was very aerobically strong and his time in triathlon with good basic strength and fitness enabling to cope with quite hard training immediately. With any other kid who comes along you usually have to spend two or three years getting them fit to be able to train and absorb the big level training. Mottram improved rapidly as a result.”
That basic fitness is a huge factor in athletic success, says Nic.
Nic said: “It doesn’t need to be athletics specific. Benita Johnson was an international hockey player and that game gave her a high level of fitness to launch her into athletics.
“You tend to get athletes coming from towns where sport is more prominent.
“The best Australian athletes often come from smaller country towns where there’s an outdoor lifestyle and more sport – they walk and run around more. It’s been similar in Ireland. Sonia says, ‘People say the Kenyans ran to school. I ran to school too but no-one focuses on that point.’
“When we were kids there was a lot more running, more playing football or cricket in the street for two or three hours. That’s not as commonplace now. But Mottram grew up like that.”
