  • S3E6: NOPe, Nothing to Talk About This Week

    JK we pretty much just talked about four things and it took over two hours. Not quite a PR, but close! In addition to all the things you're expecting (1:59:40, 2:14:04, NOP, and shoes) we went head-to-head with athletes to determine which man and woman should wear the Athlete of the Year crown. We talked about pacing at Worlds and the relaxation of Rule 40 as well.

  • S3E5: A Long End to the Long Season

    That's right, this sucker is 140 minutes long, which is 18 minutes longer than the runtime for the recently released feature film "Joker". You could go see that whole movie and we'd still be talking about some combination of the Alberto Salazar coaching ban by the IAAF, discussion about what really constitutes a breach of coaching ethics, why the way people cast speculation of doping on incredible performances is so often dumb and ruins the moment for fans and also seven days worth of results from the IAAF/World Athletics 2019 Doha World Championships. (The audio is back to normal this week.)

  • S3E4: Berlin and Doha WC Update #1

    Hey there, just a warning that the audio quality on the part where Alex joins in (16:22 to end) degrades quite a lot because she was recording on the phone in the car so if that's going to bug you, you might bail at that point.

    BUT if you do that, you'll miss a recap of the following Worlds events: women's marathon, men's 100m, women's 10,000m, and the men's 5000m prelims. You'll also miss our Berlin Marathon recap! Choose your adventure!

  • S3E3: In-N-Out

    Not the burgers, this isn't a food podcast. We're talking about people, events, and brands and whether they're in or if they're as out as wearing white after Labor Day. In this episode, find out how far tennis players run in each match, who pulled out of which races, who set world records, and why the IAAF...or Global Athletics' selection process for Worlds has let down some athletes that had already booked their tickets to Doha.

  • S3E2: There Are Only A Few Certain Things In Life

    And they always involve Mo Farah and Jenny Simpson. We talked Great North Run and Fifth Avenue Mile plus that Woody/woodsy 5000 on Nike's track. We also tried to convince you about how great the Japanese trials are going to be and talked about the organic track beef coming from the Kenyan steeple team.

  • S3E1: The Beginning and the End

    We started off the third season of the 1609 Podcast by talking about the last two meets of the Diamond League this year! We had a lot to cover between two DL meets, the Coleman testing resolution, Drew Hunter's news about Worlds, a number of ultra races and a few track and road races as well. We also got a cool email and talked about our weeks in training.

  • S2E52: Sayonara Season Two

    We wrap up our second season with some Japanese records falling, and more discussion of track, trail, and road races. We also considered coaches and talked about the big not-quite-doping news this week. And on that bombshell...see you next week, thanks for listening!

  • S2E51: Pan Am-azing

    Nailed it. This week was a little light on content. We did a high level Pan Ams recap, talked shoe...laces, answered some of Google's favorite running questions, talked a lot about our feet, and covered a little bit of pro news. Plus a great email from Elijah, and our newly-returned Weeks in Running!

  • S2E50: Return of the Weekly Training Segment

    We didn't think we would have a full length show this week, but it turns out this one was pretty solid. We have the usual doping segment, plus comfortable shoes, Beach to Beacon, NYC. a Rathod fields (and why some folks are running it so close to the Trials), some Pro moves, a fast half by a high school freshman and a few other treats this week.

  • S2E49: USAyyyyy(s?)

    The puns are getting tougher. Not as tough as that women's 400h race at the USA Championship though! We spent a very long time breaking down the races from this past weekend, but found time for doping talk, a few Tokyo topics, and (if we're honest, pretty cursory) discussion of the Canadian champs. So if you were looking for in-depth discussion of the big race between Ahmed and Knight, we're sorry to have let you down.
