Letesenbet Gidey 62:52, USATF World's Selection Policy Sucks, Athlete of Year, and Beer Mile WR

2 years ago

Letesenbet Gidey ran 62:52 for the half marathon in Valenica and the LRC crew tries to make sense of this amazing record.

USATF's selection policy for the Worlds Eugene 2022 is out and people aren't happy including Rojo who goes on a rant.

World Athletics Athlete of Year: Sydney McLaughlin, Yulimar Rojas, or Sifan Hassan? Karsten Warholm or Ryan Crouser?

The beer mile record is now sub 4:30, some trouble in Oregon.
