Description

It's time for NZ Sporting History, and today Jesse is joined by our oldest living Olympic medalist Barry McGee. Barry is best remembered for taking home Bronze in the 1960 Rome Olympic marathon. In 1961 he led the world 10,000m rankings and was part of New Zealand's world-record-breaking 4 × 1 mile relay team. After retiring from international running in 1965, Barry moved into coaching, where he became one of the country's most influential distance running coaches.
