Paul Chelimo joins us at 80:57 to talk about getting the only male American distance medal in Tokyo, performing well in the big races, his racing tactics, and he's got some tough words for Nicholas Kimeli.

Prior to that we get you up to speed on the Shelby Houlihan ruling, break down Yalemzerf Yehualaw becoming the first woman to go sub 64 (63:43) in the half marathon, plus talk a little ultra running, discuss Jenny Simpson moving up in distance, and Molly Seidel's airplane story.
