Jakob Masterclass, Marcell Jacobs is Back, Grant Fisher AR in Monaco + Fall Marathons Preview

Jakob Ingebrigtsen made it look easy over Mohamed Katir in the Euro 5000. Is he unbeatable at 5000? Marcell Jacobs is back in form with a 9.95 European win. Grant Fisher left Monaco with the American record while Faith Kipyegon just missed the 1500 world record. The fall marathon fields are largely out and we give our thoughts on Berlin, London, Chicago and New York. Show notes below. (Sponsor) The AIRWAAV® ENDURANCE Performance Mouthpiece is here! Airwaav is a relatively new training tool that launched late in 2020 after nearly 16 years of research. Now they have the ENDURANCE model that provides a more snug fit, keeping the mouthpiece in place for endurance athletes who relax their jaw during long-distance workouts or races. The AIRWAAV performance mouthpiece fits along your bottom teeth and directs your tongue down and forward creating the “optimal airway opening” resulting in: Increased airway opening by up to 25% resulting in an immediate 28.5% respiratory rate reduction during a steady-state run Increased endurance — by reducing respiratory rate by 20%, resulting in less lactic acid production Faster recovery times — by reducing cortisol build-up by up to 50% LetsRun listeners can save 10% with the code "LR10" Dig into the science and put AIRWAAV to the test.

High Schoolers Juliette Whittaker and Cade Flatt ran the #2 times ever in NYC, did the pre-race showers have something to do with it? (Sponsor) The **AIRWAAV® ENDURANCE Performance Mouthpiece is here!** Airwaav is a relatively new training tool that launched late in 2020 after nearly 16 years of research. Now they have the ENDURANCE model that provides a more snug fit, keeping the mouthpiece in place for endurance athletes who relax their jaw during long-distance workouts or races. The AIRWAAV performance mouthpiece fits along your bottom teeth and directs your tongue down and forward creating the “optimal airway opening” resulting in: Increased airway opening by up to 25% resulting in an immediate 28.5% respiratory rate reduction during a steady-state run Increased endurance — by reducing respiratory rate by 20%, resulting in less lactic acid production Faster recovery times — by reducing cortisol build-up by up to 50% LetsRun listeners can save 10% with the code "LR10" Dig into the science and put AIRWAAV to the test.

Gary Martin Sub 4 Like Jim Ryun, Katelyn Tuohy 4:06, Go Pro Early?

Pennsylvania high schooler Gary Martin did something that had only been done once before, by Jim Ryun in 1965, go sub 4 in the mile in a high school race without a rabbit. Former prep phenom Katelyn Tuohy blasted a 4:06 1500m, Maria Garcia Romo blasted NCAA record holder Eliud Kipsang at SECs in the 1500, Yared Nuguse's NCAA career is over, there were some amazing sprint performances at the conference meets, and DII star Christian Noble turned some heads by not only turning pro before NCAAs, but also signing as a male with New Balance. We break it all down and discuss whether Newbury Park XC was the best high school team ever in any sport and whether Matthew Centrowitz, Donavan Brazier, or Jenny Simpson are in trouble.
