LetsRun.com's Track Talk: The Home of Running and Track and Field31 Mai 2023

Is Jakob Improving? Rabat, LA, Lex Young HS Record, and LOADED 5k in Florence

It was a jam-packed weekend with the LA Grand Prix on Friday and Saturday, the Rabat Diamond League on Sunday, and NCAA Regional.

Jakob Ingebrigtsen is still king of the 1500, but is he still improving? Abdihamid Nur got a big win but will he even make the US team this year? Lex Young broke the high school 5000m record, but he's not the fastest 18-year-old training in America.
