Olympic and Kiwi legend Peter Snell has passed. Kiwi Running Show podcast host Hayden Shearman joins us to give his insight on Snell, the athlete of the last century in New Zealand.

Update: Peter Snell's biography No Bugles, No Drums is now available on kindle here.

We discuss Foot Lockers and debate Zofia Dudek vs Kately Tuohy, give praise to podcast listener Josh Methner for his run away victory. Alberto Salazar = the possible person of the decade? Des Linden running Olympic Trials and Boston, + club nats and Tuohy, Mary Cain, and Tinman elite, race of decade, and threads of week. Full notes below.
