LRC’s Jonathan Gault talked to Northern Arizona cross-country/track and field coach Mike Smith this week to get the insight on Andy Trouard’s upset victory in the men’s 3000m at the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships at Texas A&M last weekend.

We’ve published an article on Trouard’s rise to the top of the NCAAs here: How Andy Trouard Went From Northern Arizona’s #4 Man In Cross Country To A National Champion On The Track .

However, Jon found his conversation with coach Smith so insightful that he asked after the fact if he could present it as a podcast on LetsRun.com.

Coach Smith said yes. So without further ado is the LetsRun.com Track Talk Episode 52: Mike Smith on The Rise Of Andy Trouard, Why It’s Important to “Win The Straights” Indoors & Why You Should Embrace The Hurt In A 5K.
