Olympic Marathon Trials Mania: Galen Rupp Delivers, Aliphine Tuliamuk Leads Upset Charge, Molly Seidel, Abdi, Riley, Kipyego

The fabulous 2020 Olympic Marathon Trials are in the books (full coverage here).

Galen Rupp delivered once again, Aliphine Tuliamuk ended HOKA ONE ONE Marathon Month on LetsRun.com in the grandest way possible by pulling the huge upset, as Molly Seidel delivered in her debut, Jake Riley made his return more than complete, so did Sally Kipyego, and 43 year-old Abdi Abdirahman became the 1st 5 time male track and field Olympian in the US.

We break it all down, talk shoes, and the party scene in Atlanta. Plus Karissa Schweizer's stunning American record upset over Shelby Houlihan and yes of course Mary Cain and the crazy results from the Tokyo Marathon: the shoes have totally changed the game in the marathon.

Podcast is sponsored by HOKA ONE ONE. 17 HOKA Athletes ran the Trials (and we shared all their cool stories here), and yes Aliphine Tuliamuk, who was on last week's podcast, won them.
