Oscar in return talks

Bailed Blade Runner Oscar Pistorius has held talks with his coach about resuming training.

The Paralympics legend, who faces a charge of murdering girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, was pictured back on the track in his home town of Pretoria.

The family of the 26-year-old double amputee issued a statement insisting he was only jogging and is “still in an extremely traumatized state.”

 “He told us he would like to get back in training and we can now look at formulating his training schedule.

“Oscar is still coming to terms with the sad loss of Reeva.

“That is why it will be better for him to be back at training.

“It will be great to get him some routine. But this is not disrespectful to Reeva, or her family.

“This has been part of his life for so many years. If it makes things easier for him to get some sense back into his life, let him run and let him jog.

“He’s a human being and that’s maybe an outlet for him.”

Pistorius is next due in court on June 4, with a trial expected to take place in South Africa before the end of this year.

His relaxed bail conditions now allow him to travel abroad in order to continue his athletics career.

But Pistorius has not trained for two months since the shocking events on Valentine’s Day when he allegedly shot model Reeva in his home. He claims he mistook her for an intruder.

His last competitive race was his victory in the 400 metres final at the London Paralympics in September last year.
