Tales from the Valley - Episode 5 ft. Karen Blay

Karen joins Russ and Sam this week. Karen walks us through her long and successful running career which includes a number of Australian Records in the 55-59 and 60-64 categories. She will look to add the remaining records to her collection in Hobart in a couple of weeks and also looks to break 3 hours at Gold Coast Marathon this year.

Russ starts to string together some solid training and roll into Christchurch Marathon, cracking 100km for a couple of weeks now. Sam continues to string together Marathon Sessions and high mileage but has looked forward to a day or 2 off and a down week as he has developed a shin splint.

Stick around for the end as Sam speaks with Jon Holmes the Event Director for Christchurch Marathon for an overview of the course, expo and major sponsors of the event.
