Wellington's James Preston storms into athletics history books

from The All Sport Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

Sir Peter Snell, James Preston, Sir John Walker.  That's the new order of New Zealand's all-time fastest 800 metre runners after Preston's effort of one minute 44.87 seconds at the National Track and Field champs in Wellington.  It takes the Wellingtonian past Walker's 1:44.92 - and just adrift of Snell's 1:44.3.  Preston explained to Adam Cooper how he intended to get ahead of rival - and 1500 metre specialist Sam Tanner - on the track.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
