Dan Rookwood: Life Coach

I want to get back into running. What kit do you recommend?

My friend Joe Mackie at Runner’s World magazine recommends Nike Flyknit Lunar 2s. Winner of best overall running shoes in Runner’s World’s latest shoe guide, they’re ‘very light and responsive but still with plenty of cushioning’. Adidas recently released the miCoach Smart Run watch, which is also a heart-rate monitor that doesn’t need a chest strap. And this month saw the launch of the latest Nike X Undercover Gyakusou running apparel. But be quick — it’ll go faster than Mo Farah.

For the next month, Selfridges is selling 50 limited-edition skateboards designed by names such as Dries Van Noten, Margiela and McQueen (from £75). Plus the store has created a skatepark in the Old Selfridges Hotel. Until Back to the Future Part II hoverboards truly become reality, this is the coolest way to skate. (selfridges.com)
