Day four of track and field at the Paris Olympics delivered! From Mondo Duplantis resetting his own world record (yet again) to the chaos of Faith Kipygeon being disqualified and later reinstated as the women’s 5000m silver medallist, today was a memorable one. In tonight’s edition of Torch Talk, we dive into all of the highlights from another action-packed day…

– Mondo Duplantis broke the pole vault world record for the ninth time in his career en route to winning his second straight Olympic gold in the event. Sam Kendricks took silver after clearing 5.95m, and Emmanouil Karalis finished in bronze with 5.90m.

– Beatrice Chebet took home Olympic gold in a chaotic women’s 5000m race in 14:28.56. After originally being DQed, Chebet’s countrywoman Faith Kipyegon took silver and Dutchwoman Sifan Hassan won bronze in the first of her three finals at these Games.

– Keely Hodgkinson won the women's 800m crown with her time of 1:56.72. She is the 3rd British woman to claim this title. 2023 World Champion Mary Moraa took bronze, and Tsige Duguma won Ethiopia's first ever Olympic 800m medal with her silver.

–Valarie Allman won her second straight Olympic gold in the women's discus with a best mark of 69.50m. Allman is one of only three women in history to successfully defend her Olympic title in this event. Bin Feng of China took silver and Sandra Elkasevic of Croatia took bronze.

Today’s excitement was off the charts! Day three’s events were a rollercoaster of thrills, but stealing the spotlight was the men’s 100m final – a race that had fans across the world on the edge of their seats from start to finish. In today’s edition of Torch Talk, we recap…

– Noah Lyles wins the first Olympic gold of his career by taking the 100m crown over Jamaica's Kishane Thompson. Both men ran 9.79 and the gold was decided by thousandths-of-a-second. American Fred Kerley came through for bronze in 9.81.

– World record holder Yaroslava Mahuchikh won her first Olympic high jump title with a mark of 2.00m. Australia's Nicola Olyslagers won her second straight Olympic silver, while Iryna Gershchenko and Eleanor Patterson tied on countback for the bronze medal.

– Ethan Katzberg won the Olympic gold in the men's hammer with a mark of 84.12m, the second-best mark in Olympic history. It was the largest margin of victory since 1920. Hungary's Bence Halasz took silver and Ukraine's Mykhaylo Kokhan took bronze.

– Grant Holloway posted the fastest time of the Olympic 110m hurdles qualifying by a HUGE margin, clocking a 13.01 to win his heat by 0.41 seconds.

– The women’s 800m finalists were determined: Keely Hodgkinson, Tsige Duguma, Prudence Sekgodiso, Shafiqua Maloney, Juliette Whittaker, Rénelle Lamote, Mary Moraa, and Worknesh Mesele.

This year’s edition of the world’s biggest one-day athletics event did not disappoint in the slightest.

"When I quit after college, I genuinely thought, ‘That's it. I'll never go back to track.’ I just wish I'd heard more stories like mine where you take a huge break, get back into something that you love, and make it to a really high level… It's just nice to know that there's not one route to make it to the Olympics."

Georgia Bell and I connected after she just ran 3:56.54 at the Monaco Diamond League to become the second-fastest British woman of all time over 1500m. She had shared that she’s a fan of the show and I’ve been following her story closely this season and it’s remarkable. 

She quit track seven years ago after finishing up her college eligibility at Cal – but after dabbling in the duathlon, she decided to make a comeback this year. It has been nearly perfect as she has won the British 1500m indoor and outdoor national titles, finished 4th in the World Indoor Championship final, earned a European Championship silver medal and is now headed to the Olympic Games for Team GB.

She did much of it in the beginning of the year while balancing a full-time job in cybersecurity. She trains under coach Trevor Painter and Jenny Meadows and in the same training group that included Olympic silver medalist Keely Hodgkinson. Georgia explains how her training set-up works since she’s still living in London most of the time and has to do much of her own training solo – while also still incorporating a bunch of biking.

We thought long and hard about alien physiology before recording this great episode! The main topic was a wildly cool wrinkle in training science. Across all different types of events, the most predictive variable for performance is often how fast an athlete can go at VO2 max effort. That could have massive implications for how we think about training and what we consider "specificity" for long events!

We discussed why we think that is, along with workout designs, the use of hills, and how much we want to get aliens on a treadmill. ET can phone home after ET does a VO2 max test.

And this one was full of our favorite topics! Other topics: Addie dog going strong at nearly 12 years old, the upcoming Olympic Trials on the track, our wild travel schedule between the Trials and Western States, stroller running and our worrisome experience, sodium bicarbonate hacks, workout design, the power of using set-based structures, running economy and other predictors in ultras, a new study on fatigue resistance/durability and its relation to training status, Alex Honnold running the Lavaredo 50k, Roger Federer's wonderful speech on perseverance, messages about ferritin increases from liposomal iron, Joey Chestnut's ban from the hot dog eating contest and what it says about sponsorships, the increasing cost of shoes, Keely Hodgkinson's low-volume approach with lots of cross training, and hot takes.

When the aliens arrive, we should give them a cup of chocolate Nesquik so they can experience our finest delicacies. Then it's straight onto the treadmill for some podcast content.

We love you all! HUZZAH! Aliens!

It was a race for the ages. The Prefontaine Classic Bowerman Mile delivered on the hype with 9 men breaking 3:50 and reigning World champ Josh Kerr taking down reigning Olympic champ Jakob Ingebrigtsen 3:45.34 to 3:45.60.

No amount of trash talk can trump results, and Kerr has not lost to Ingebrigtsen since June of last year.

Chris Chavez, Mac Fleet and Karen Lesiewicz had to record a podcast about it immediately after.

We also talk about:

– Keely Hodgkinson shows the world why she’s the one to watch in the women’s 800m, clocking a world leading 1:55.78 and defeating reigning World champ Mary Moraa.

– Diribe Welteji clocks her fourth sub-4 of the season with a 3:53.75 victory in the 1500m, leading 6 athletes under 4 and holding off a hard-charging Jessica Hull (3:55.97, Australian record).

– Elle St. Pierre keeps her incredible 2024 season rolling with a big 3:56.00 personal best in the 1500m, good for 3rd place. St. Pierre moves up from #6 to #2 on the U.S. all-time list. More takeaways from the 1500m.

Brian is the West Coast Marketplace Lead for Maurten, the fueling company that is used by the likes of Eliud Kipchoge & Keely Hodgkinson. Fueling is a complex subject that l've been wanting to dive into and there's no better person to do it with than Brian! He is extremely gifted in breaking down complex subjects in an engaging way. Brian is also a very accomplished runner in his own right with a Marathon PR of 2:21.

Some of the subjects covered in today's episode include (but are not limited to): the importance of fueling, the myth of carbs being bad for you, the science of digestion, how fueling impacts recovery, your brain burning calories, baking soda in relation to lactic acid, and much more!

I can't reccomend this episode enough! If you want to learn all there is to know about fueling, this episode is for you.
