The 1609 Podcast

We wanted to release this interview that Alex got to do with Chris Bustard, a runner (and rower and skier and...lumberjack?) who's got a fun resume of beer miles and marathons and ultras. He finished the Vermont 100 this past weekend in the midst of a bad heat wave in the area and we figured it was time to have him on. We talked about his varied athletic endeavors, and how he got into running ultras and the really metal race he's got coming up next.

That's right, we're continuing with the awful pun titles and this is the London recap! We had a chat about what Kipchoge's jamming out to, talked about Le Tour, wrapped up the Pan Am Games drama, and covered some signings, all before we covered the happenings in the two day London meet. Thanks again to Anonymous Runner for the kind words and Patreon support! PS: Listen to the end and let us know if you're interested in USAs next weekend.

Old person's marathon results, some gross microbial news, an update on the 1:59 project featuring Eliud Kipchoge, and a quick preview of Western States happening this weekend. We actually did a full-ish preview of Pre because it's going to be pretty top notch out there on Sunday. Finally, we wrapped up with a long explanation of the latest example of how USATF is failing its athletes. It's another fun one!

We started off with some devastating news this week about Gabe Grunewald's passing. If you'd like to donate to her foundation, you can do so at this site.

We had lots of races to recap after that, including NCAAs and Oslo, plus some news about the Hardrock 100. We talked athletes going pro, a potential 1500/5000 double, and why one runner was banned for having rat poison in his blood.

But we're talking about it! And doping! And whether living the dream is really that great, why no one will have pictures of Tokyo 2020, plus some action from a homophonically named 10K and a Diamond League meet.
