Show Notes
Kiwi middle-distance prodigy Sam Ruthe has made history.
The 15-year-old is the youngest person to break the four-minute mile barrier, and the 49th New Zealander to do so.
His dad, Ben, is also an accomplished middle-distance runner and he joined Piney to discuss his son's journey
“I would have thought that this was not something that was possible for anybody on the planet.”
