GRAND SLAM TRACK: PHILLY PREVIEW | ATHLETES + STORYLINES TO WATCH (LIVE FROM PHILADELPHIA)

The Grand Slam Track series heads to historic Franklin Field and we’re breaking it all down in this jam-packed episode of the CITIUS MAG Podcast. Join Chris Chavez, Eric Jenkins, Anderson Emerole and Aisha Praught-Leer as the crew previews the Philly Slam from every angle—diving into the matchups, storylines, and athletes you won’t want to miss.

We highlight the key events and rivalries to watch, including:

– Kenny Bednarek vs. Fred Kerley and the rest of a stacked men’s short sprints field

– Gabby Thomas dropping back down to the 100m to battle Melissa Jefferson-Wooden and Brittany Brown

– The return of Olympic 400m champ Steven Gardiner and his showdown with Matthew Hudson-Smith

– Marileidy Paulino’s redemption arc in the women’s 400m

– Dylan Beard’s Cinderella story in the short hurdles

– Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone’s last hurrah in the 400m hurdles before switching events

– Deep fields in both men’s and women’s distance events, with stars like Grant Fisher, Cole Hocker, Nikki Hiltz, and Diribe Welteji going head-to-head with world-class Challengers

Plus, we preview which athletes are poised to cash in—or crash out—under the Grand Slam Track’s high-stakes scoring system.

Whether you’re watching live on Peacock or tuning in on The CW, this episode will get you prepped and pumped for the action ahead. Be sure to subscribe to the CITIUS MAG Podcast on Apple or Spotify and follow along all weekend on YouTube.
