On this episode, we discuss:

  • What do we make of the rules and is there a stigma attached to those athletes who wear them?
  • Oregon announces the new Hayward Field will honor former track and field legends Steve Prefontaine, Raevyn Rogers, Ashton Eaton and Otis Davis but who else should have a floor named after them? We need more women!

  • Running through results: Millrose Games | Ajee Wilson is the gold medal favorite, Donovan Brazier is going to be a problem, Justyn Knight didn’t take a subway for coronavirus concern, Elle Purrier has a tough decision with the 1,500m and 5,000m for outdoors
  • Galen Rupp proved he is back with his 61-minute win at the Sprouts Mesa Half Marathon.
  • The beef between Lopez Lomong and Paul Chelimo through memes, explained
  • U.S. Indoor Track and Field Championships meh after World Indoors was canceled but Bowerman Track Club has a great showing
