Tales from the Valley Podcast ft. Trent Macleay

Sam and Mitch catch up with Trent Macleay this week. Trent has run 17:27 for 5000m, 52:44 at C2S, 1:22 for the half, and 2:56 just a few weeks ago at the Noosa Marathon. Trent came into his own as a runner after picking up the running bug from the rest of his family, running his first C2S around a decade ago. Trent tells us how he has evolved as a runner since then and has started to run these impressive PBs. Coached by Barry Keem, Trent is keen to keep improving on these times with a big focus on the marathon PB.

Mitch runs 121km this week, with more progress in sessions, outperforming his splits from the same session a few weeks ago. Sam runs his first session back from injury and is surprised by how well it went given the circumstances, slowly building back with a 63km week. Trent is just building back after the Noosa Marathon; however, he runs two very impressive sessions with some blistering 400s and a kickdown long run on Sunday.
