TORCH TALK DAY 1: JOSHUA CHEPTEGEI FINALLY GETS HIS 10,000M GOLD, GRANT FISHER TAKES BRONZE! TEAM USA BREAKS THE MIXED 4X400M WORLD RECORD + FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF THE REPECHAGE ROUNDS | LIVE FROM PARIS

We are FINALLY underway with track and field action at the Paris Olympics.

On this first episode of TORCH TALK (presented by Asics), Chris Chavez, Eric Jenkins, Mitch Dyer, Aisha Praught-Leer and Katelyn Hutchison unpack the first day of action including:

– Uganda's Joshua Cheptegei set a new Olympic record with a time of 26:43.14 to finally get his Olympic gold medal in the event. Ethiopia’s Berihu Aregawi closing hard to snag the silver medal by two-hundredths of a second. Grant Fisher holding on against some titans to run 26:43.46 and become just the 4th American man to medal in the event.

– Team USA's mixed 4x400m relay broke the world record in 3:07.41 in the heats. They could break their own world record again tomorrow.

– Sifan Hassan started her 5000m/10,000m/marathon triple and looks better than we expected for the 5000m.

– We officially got introduced to the repechage rounds with the heats of the 800m and 1500m.

– Germany’s Leo Neugebauer leads the decathlon after Day 1.

– Reigning Olympic champion Valarie Allman topped discus qualifying with 69.59m

– Jamaica’s Shaniecka Ricketts led the triple jump's first round with a 14.47m leap but it was Keturah Orji, who made some history for the U.S. as a three-time Olympic finalist.
