We're joined by the legendary Olympic, World and Commonwealth 100mh Champion Sally Pearson to discuss another night of shock results here in Tokyo.

We get her expert take on a startling Ditaji Kambundji win in the sprint hurdles and an elated Geordie Beamish in the steeplechase. 

But not everything was as surprising. Of course Mondo did it again. A WR on the biggest stage!!!

We had a fantastic evening in the stadium hanging out with some with Athletico Royalty and enjoying the iced wine 🧊 🍷

The action was pretty great as well.

A sensational 10k result gave fan fave Jimmy Gressier a surprise win and the 100m Finals didn’t disappoint with new Champions in both events and a resurgent Jamaica passing the baton to the next generation.

We’ve made it all the way to Tokyo and whilst the jet lag is kicking in we’re here to recap Day 1 along with Trackastic Podcast host and Atheltico royalty Chris Brown Sport. 

Golds from fan fave Evan Dunfee and a resurgent Ryan Crouser had us cheering, whilst Beatrice Chebet’s dominant kick finish outpaced all of her rivals as usual.

Mixed bag from the Brits with heartbreak for our Jaz but the sprinters all made it through safely with finals to come this evening 🤞🏾

After a week of stunning DL performances the boys discuss Keely and Karsten comebacks, WR near misses and a very damp LJ competish before we all head to Zurich for the big Final later this week. 

They then have a good old gossip rounding up all the off track drama that’s been taking place and wonder if those last few selection decisions aren’t quite as set in stone as we’d all thought.
