Tales from the Valley Podcast ft. Dane Ottesen
Manage episode 433616270 series 3554445
Sam, Katie, and Mitch are joined by WTC member Dane Ottesen. In just a few short years, Dane has run an impressive time trial of 15:04 on the Picton Parkrun course (though not during an official event), but officially clocked 15:37 at the Wollongong Running Festival, 31:55 at the Sydney 10K, and 71:50 at the Gold Coast Half Marathon.
Dane started running when Picton Parkrun began, initially finishing in 22 minutes. He improved to 18 minutes on his own until Myles Gough traveled up for Parkrun and introduced him to WTC. Since then, Dane has been coached by IRP’s Brady Threlfall and has seen great improvements in his running. Currently, Dane is managing his work-life-running balance and trying to string together more consistent training.
Mitch is back from Spain. Despite the jetlag and a bucks party on Friday night, he managed to run 49:50 at C2S today. Katie is building on her running while continuing to work through her hip injury. Dane put together a solid week with strong sessions and an unintentional 2-hour, 20-minute long run, which included a 9-meter fence climb. Sam hit 100 km for the week, his first time reaching that milestone since March.
