Today on AtoZrunning:We react to an outstanding comment in a Hobbs Kessler interview about the costs and benefits of training. In the world of running, Tokyo Marathon served upsets by upstarts as well as title defenses all in one race. The last little bit of indoor track action in the US was once again dramatic, if not earth-shattering. And if you can name one thing about either the men's or women's US half marathon champs, you'll be in the minority. For training, coaching, and other services, visit https://atozrunning.com/coaching
New high school mile record-holder and future Washington Husky, Owen Powell, joins the show just days after crushing his second sub-4-minute mile in February, etching his name in history books.First, Owen ran a sizzling 3:57.74 on February 14 against collegiate runners at the Husky Classic in Washington. Then, to add to his incredible start to 2025, he blew the doors off the national high school indoor mile record (held by Hobbs Kessler) with a time of 3:56.66 at BU's Terrier DMR Challenge on February 21. The signs have been pointing toward this type of performance for a while; last season Owen was named 2023-24 Gatorade Player of the Year for the state of Washington, running a 1:48.60 in the 800m to gain national attention. Owen also won the Washington 3A State Championship in the 1,600m in 2023, and state championships in cross country and the 800m in 2024. In addition to his mile and 800m PRs, he has also run 2:24.41 in the 1,000m, 3:44.70 in the 1500m, and 8:04.83 in the 3,000m.Heading into his senior year he had an impressive 3.68 GPA in the classroom. Outside of school, Owen is an avid mountain biker and rock climber, while also volunteering locally as a youth track coach.In today's conversation, Owen takes me through his remarkable week of performances, his mindset leading into this outdoor season, and his thoughts on Webb's record, what his training looks like, and so much more.

Jason and Kevin discuss Josh Hoey, Nikki Hiltz, Hobbs Kessler, Shelby Houlihan, Grant Holloway and all the other news makers from this year's USATF Indoor Championships. Then, the guys chat about Jacob Kiplimo possibly breaking two hours in the marathon, a trio of boys going sub four minutes in the mile and the state of track and field on television.
On today's show, we have a lot to talk about. Josh Hoey just ran 1:43.24 for 800 meters—indoors. That's the second-fastest time ever run indoors, behind only Wilson Kipketer. We'll break down what this means for the American 800m scene, how he's addressed skepticism that inevitably comes with a performance like this and whether Hoey is suddenly a legitimate outdoor medal contender.Hobbs Kessler doubled at USAs, taking both the 3000m and 1500m titles like it was just another weekend at the track. We'll talk about what impressed us the most about Kessler's double, how the men's middle distances are shaping up for 2025 and why it was OK for Cooper Teare and Cole Hocker to skip out.And then there's the "rivalry" that was quickly dispelled by the athletes – Nikki Hiltz vs. Shelby Houlihan. Just a few years ago, Houlihan was untouchable. Then came the four-year ban, and now, she's back—and already battling for the top spot. In the 3000m, Houlihan got to the front, squeezed the pace, and dared anyone to come with her. And Nikki Hiltz? They came with her. And then passed her. In the final strides of the women's 3000m, Hiltz outkicked Houlihan, officially stamping themselves as America's best championship racer in the middle distances.Plus, we'll get into the results of the sprints and why the 2025 World Indoor Championships in Nanjing might be one of the weirdest global meets we've ever seen—between withdrawals, travel logistics, and a US team that's missing some of its biggest stars.Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSKETONE-IQ: Level up your training with Ketone-IQ – a clean shot of energy with no sugar or caffeine.

Hosts Jonathan Gault, Robert Johnson, and Weldon Johnson give their final thoughts to the 2025 USATF Indoor Championships. Josh Hoey put on an exhibition running 1:43.24, the 2nd fastest 800m ever, and Hobbs Kessler and Nikki Hiltz got double wins in the 3000 and 1500 as Shelby Houlihan returned from her doping ban.

In February 2021 Hobbs Kessler recorded the fastest indoor mile ever by a U.S. high school runner. Last week he moved to number two on the all-time world rankings with his 3:46 mile at the Millrose Games. In between, Hobbs inked a pro contract with adidas, won the mile at the World Road Running Championships, and made the Paris Olympics in both the 800m and 1500m, finishing fifth in the 1500. Recently, Phil and I had the joy of sharing an hour with Hobbs. We chatted about the special significance of relationships in running, took a deep dive into his training system, discussed the in-race learning experiences of a young pro, and much more!
Grant Fisher and Yared Nuguse are world record holders in the 3000 and mile respectively as Cole Hocker and Hobbs Kessler ran faster than anyone else previously in the event. Josh Hoey's amazing 2025 continued with his 2nd American record. Shelby Houlihan ran the 2nd fastest indoor mile by an American in Boston and 16-year-old high school sophomore Cooper Lutkenhaus ran 1:46 at Millrose. We try and tell you what it all means?

He's coming for it all. 2025 is the year of Hobbs Kessler. Back on the podcast today is 21-year-old mid-distance Olympic star Hobbs Kessler, who is gearing up for the Wanamaker Mile at the Milrose Games in New York City on February 8, 2025. (Hobbs came in 2nd last year at this race with a time of 3:48.66; fellow American star Yared Nuguse took the win.) Hobbs was most recently on the episode right after placing 5th in the 1500m in Paris, running a 3:29.45, in the most stacked and competitive 1500 race of all time. He also ran the 800m in the Olympics, but was eliminated in the semifinals. Hobbs competed for Skyline High School in Ann Arbor, Michigan (the school he attended for academics did not offer competitive sports). It was in high school that Hobbs ran an indoor mile record of 3:57.66. Hobbs then ran a 3:34.36 in the 1500m while still in high school, which was faster than the NCAA record at the time; this catapulted him to his first Olympic Trials in 2021. While Hobbs' father was his high school coach, he delegated most of the planning for his son's training to Michigan coach Ron Warhurst, whom he still trains under as a member of the Very Nice Track Club in Michigan. This 21-year-old is chock full of professionalism and has a laundry list of accomplishments. In today's conversation, we dive into Hobbs's fall training, his mindset for the Millrose games and the 2025 season, how he views breakthroughs, advice to make your 2025 your best year yet, why 2025 is the year of Hobbs Kessler, and so much more. We can't wait for you to hear this episode. Lace-up your shoes, throw in your AirPods, and enjoy this conversation with the legend Hobbs Kessler. Tap into the Hobbs Kessler Special.

Today's podcast is an exploration and deep dive into how to go from "good" to "great" in the sport of running in the coming months, and many insights on training, racing, and well-being. All with Coach Patrick Henner, one of the greats. If you're not familiar with Coach Henner, Coach Henner has coached Mike Smith (current coach of NAU), Chris Miltenberg (current coach of UNC, formerly Stanford), Brandon Bonsey (current coach of Georgetown), and more in his tenure. He has also coached studs Isaiah Jewett and Will Sumner over the past few years. This past year, Coach Henner worked extensively with Hobbs Kessler going into his performances at the US Olympic Trials, where he placed in the top-3 in both the 1500m and 800m to send himself to the Paris Olympics, where he then went on to place 5th in the 1500m. Prior to successful coaching stints at Georgia & USC, Henner was the director of track and field and cross country at Georgetown from 2007-15, and prior to that he had spent eight seasons as the Hoyas' head men's cross country coach and assistant coach for the men's and women's track and field team. Henner's coaching resumé also includes a nine-year stay at James Madison, where he led both the men's and women's cross country teams to their first CAA titles, trained 28 track and field All-Americans, and was twice named CAA Coach of the Year. He began his coaching career at Blacksburg High in Blacksburg, Va., where both the men's and women's teams won state championships in 1984, 1985, and 1986. In today's conversation, Coach Henner and I dive-deep into training theory, speed development, the things great athletes do during this next month of the year, his thoughts on racing, lessons and insights from working with Hobbs Kessler, and so much more. This one is PACKED with wisdom from truly one of the greatest coaches of all-time. You'd be a fool not to listen. It's free wisdom. Tap into the Coach Henner Special.

Hobbs Kessler is a 21-year-old professional runner who ran a 3:34 in the 1500m in his senior year of high school. He has also climbed as hard as 5.14c with an ascent of Southern Smoke in the Red River Gorge. Hobbs just returned from the Paris Olympics, where he competed in both the 800 and 1500m races. But first, your curmudgeonly hosts roll their eyes at one of climbing's most bitter personas: the climbing curmudgeon. It's like we're looking in the mirror! Today's final bit is a mother-daughter violin performance of the Appalachian Waltz. The musicians behind this composition are my good friend Kate McGinnis, a nurse from Atlanta who is one of the most talented and strong climbers I've ever met, and her 13 year old daughter Annie, who is crushing rock climbs just like her mom.

Last one, fast one?! The final day of the Olympic Trials was one for the history books. In every. single. event. that took place on the tracks yesterday afternoon, the Olympic Trials meet record was broken. In multiple events, simply qualifying for Team USA meant you had to produce a performance that ranked in the U.S. top-10 of all time. 12.37 in the 100m hurdles, 3:56.75 in the women's 1500m, and 1:44.12 in the men's 800m were only good enough for fourth place. The mantra of “iron sharpens iron” normally applies to training groups, but it certainly also applies to American track and field right now. When being top 10 in the world is not a guarantee of being top 3 in the U.S., the choice is simple: you elevate your game or you go home. The afternoon began with the 5000m final, where last year's U.S. champ Abdi Nur and this year's 10,000m champ Grant Fisher treated the fans to an epic duel over the final few laps. It took a sub-4 1600m to break the rest of the field, and in the final strides, Fisher was able to re-pass Nur and get his second title of the week, the first time he's completed the 10/5 double. Behind them, it was a similar battle for third between collegians Parker Wolfe and Graham Blanks, and it's still not clear whether Wolfe or Blanks will end up on Team USA. Wolfe needs a few scratches in the world rankings ahead of him, and Blanks has the auto standard. In the men's 800m, Bryce Hoppel won his sixth straight U.S. title (counting indoors), but he did it in the fastest time of his career, a 1:42.77. His training partner Hobbs Kessler snagged third and qualifies for both the 800m and 1500m, the first time an American man has done that since 1976. In the women's 100m hurdles, you could throw a blanket over the whole field with two hurdles remaining, but it was Masai Russell who closed the best and clocked a 12.25, the good for #4 on the world all-time list. Rai Benjamin did Rai Benjamin things in the men's 400m hurdles, cruising to a 46.47 world lead and meet record well ahead of the competition. The women's 1500m was an absolute battle — more on that below. And then we closed the weekend with Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone. McLaughlin-Levrone is used to being the star of the show, and honestly her biggest competition is usually the shadow of her past self. In the 400m hurdles final she had the benefit of a fast-starting Anna Cockrell on her outside, who stayed even with the Olympic champ for the first three hurdles and kept the pressure on early. But the real difference was that, coming around the final turn, McLaughlin-Levrone didn't shut it down like she normally does through the rounds, instead powering down the homestretch to an incredible new world record 50.65. For those keeping score at home, that's the fifth time McLaughlin-Levrone has lowered the world record. When she started, the world record she was breaking was Dalilah Muhammad's 52.16 from 2019, and now it's an incredible 1.51 seconds faster. SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

The track is HOT. Okay, it's actually quite pleasant by Eugene-in-June standards, with temperatures in the high 70s and a pleasant breeze that always seems to be a tailwind in Hayward Field. But the performances laid down last night in Day 8 of the Olympic Trials sure heated up the stadium — even in events where we're not on finals yet. For the first time in history, three men broke 13 seconds in the same 110m hurdles race as Grant Holloway picked up his second national title, made his second Olympic team, and clocked the fourth-fastest performance in history ahead of Freddie Crittenden and Daniel Roberts's lifetime bests. Five men broke 20 seconds in the 200m semifinals led by Noah Lyles's wind-aided 19.60, and another epic battle between Gabby Thomas and Sha'Carri Richardson is set up in the women's 200m final. While middle-distance rounds can sometimes get tactical, they sure didn't tonight. It took 4:05.36 to make the final of the women's 1500m, and the “heavy hitters” heat did not disappoint with Nikki Hiltz making a statement with a 4:01.40 win and five finishes at 4:02.14 or faster. The 1500m final will be absolutely stacked, and in the mixed zone competitors were suggesting that it may make times well under 4 minutes just to make the team. In the men's 800m, it's clear that qualifying for the Games in the 1500m has lifted a weight off Hobbs Kessler's shoulders, as he seems to be absolutely elated in each round of racing and led all semifinal qualifiers with a huge personal best of 1:43.71. Kessler skipped the 1:44s entirely as his PB heading into this weekend was 1:45.07. It's now officially the weekend and, bittersweetly, our final two days of action, so make sure you don't miss any of these incredible competitions over the last few finals. If we've learned anything form the action we've seen so far, we're in store for something very, very fast in multiple events.

In today's episode of Conversations About Running we are joined by British elite middle distance athlete, Callum Elson. Callum is a 1500m specialist with a personal best of 3.35, who tasted his first global success at the inaugural road running world championships in 2023 where he took the silver medal behind Hobbs Kessler. Callum has enjoyed a spectacular rise up the ranks of British middle distance running and until recently had his sights firmly set on gaining an Olympic qualifying spot. Callum then went on to qualify for the world indoor championships where disaster struck as he was spiked through the Achilles tendon by a fellow competitor. With the Olympic dream put to one side, Callum is now focusing on rehabbing a torn achilles. Callum's rise to the top table of British distance running has been achieved partially by his unique approach to social media and content creation. Both the injury and Callum's YouTube channel are topics of this podcast episode. We hope you enjoy our chat with Callum Elson.
"We're here to medal. We worked so hard and no one worked harder than any of us. You just have to do it on the day. I think we all did it and it's so cool – obviously, it's indoors and sure there's an asterisk because it's not the Olympics or World Outdoor Champs, but it's a race when it matters. It's a championship. There are medals on the line and we are so competitive. We're going to run fearless. We're going to be like Hobbs Kessler, who is 20 years old and led that whole thing or Emily (Mackay) in her first world champs and she's like, 'F**k it. I'm just going to take the lead.' We're going to make bold moves. We're gonna be really hard to beat. And I think that's the momentum we're taking into outdoors. That's a statement we're making." This is Nikki Hiltz's fifth time on the show. Our last interviews came after last summer's World Championships in Budapest and also after they broke the U.S. outdoor mile record at the Monaco Diamond League. The hot streak has continued into 2024. Last month, Hiltz won the U.S. Indoor Championships for the second consecutive season. And just this past weekend, they ran two personal bests at the World Indoor Championships to earn a silver medal in the 1500m final. Ethiopia's Freweyi Hailu earned gold in 4:01.46. Hiltz came in less than a second behind her for the third-fastest indoor 1500m performance in U.S. history. Team New Balance Boston's Emily Mackay finished third for bronze. The U.S. had a super strong showing at the World Indoor Championships. We topped the medal table with 20 total medals. Seven of those medals came in middle distance events – including four in the 1500m between Hiltz, Mackay, Cole Hocker and Hobbs Kessler. In this episode, Nikki recaps their whole trip to Glasgow, the learnings from another World Championship experience, the statement made by American middle distance runners and how their outlook shifts to the outdoor season now.

"For the longest time, my definition of mental toughness was being in the call room and not being scared and not being nervous. As I get older, I think mental toughness or mental resilience is being scared, being nervous, but knowing you're mentally robust and that you can handle these stressful situations. And trusting your fitness is there, trusting yourself and your instincts, that all the pieces are there and it's not going to fail. It's okay to be nervous." It's been almost three years since Hobbs Kessler joined the CITIUS MAG Podcast. Back in 2021, he was a high school phenom out of Michigan before turning pro ahead of the 2021 U.S. Olympic Trials. Now, he's the world champion and world record holder in the road mile. We caught up just two days after he ran 3:48.86 to finish second in the Wanamaker Mile at the Millrose Games to become the second-fastest American man in history. In this episode, he opens up about his training and adjustments he's made – including not running any run longer than seven miles, doubling every day and still sharpening his speed. Hobbs also shares how he's changed in his approach to racing and feels that he belongs among the best pros. Time Stamps: 4:39 - Recalling his first summer as a pro. 5:15 - His confidence before becoming an established pro. 6:23 - Some of the low points he's experienced over the past two years. 8:16 - The people that have had the greatest impact on him. 9:07 - His training and mindset leading into the 2024 indoor season. 11:33 - What training in Flagstaff looked like for him in January. 13:57 - His training philosophy + finding what training works best for him. 17:50 - Experimenting with training. 18:31 - Breaking down his training structure. 20:19 - How he's been able to continue developing speed. 24:13 - Race tactics and strategy. 26:08 - Goals heading into the Millrose Games Wanamaker Mile. 27:50 - Thoughts leading into Indoor USAs. 29:02 - Where his current fitness is at. 31:12 - Thoughts on the BU track. 32:20 - His favorite race. 33:45 - What race he would re-run if he could do it over 35:01 - Advice on managing nerves before racing.

The running world tragically lost one of its brightest lights, Kelvin Kiptum, the world record holder in the marathon, the man who in 10 months revolutionized how the marathon can be run, tragically passed away at the age of 24. We pay our respects. Then we turn to an amazing 2024 Millrose Games where Devynne Charlton started things off by breaking the world record in the 60m hurdles but the highlight was Josh Kerr running 8:00.67 to break the 2-mile world record and take down Grant Fisher, plus American records by Ellie St. Pierre, a big run by Yared Nuguse, Hobbs Kessler and even Cole Hocker. Plus, Alicia Monson broke an American record and Rojo wasn't that impressed. We break it all down and then take a look at a stacked USATF Indoors. Show notes below. Want to stay more focused?

Today on AtoZrunning: Where do we start as runners? To kick off our 5th season, we address this question whether you're a long-time runner or totally new to the sport. Also, close to 5,000 runners were informed mere hours before the start of their event that it was canceled. The world athletes held the first ever road-racing championships, and Hobbs Kessler's post-race reaction was priceless. And this track meet went off the rails when they found out drug testers would be making an unexpected appearance.

I have the great privilege of welcoming Hobbs Kessler to the podcast today. Hobbs competes professionally for Adidas, having turned professional directly after high school. He holds the North American U20 record in the 1500 meters, having run 3:34.36 at the Portland Track Festival in May 2021. He also holds the American high school record for the indoor mile, with a time of 3:57.66 set in February 2021. He was named the 2021 Gatorade National Track and Field Athlete of the Year. Hobbs competes for The Very Nice Track Club based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Hobbs is one of the greatest runners of our generation. Hobbs is also an outstanding rock climber. Growing up, he represented the United States many times growing up. In today's episode of the podcast, Hobbs takes us through his incredible story and rise to the top of distance running. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and hearing more in-depth about the races that have shaped his career. Going through Hobb's incredble story and lessons he's learned along the way was incredibly enjoyable and inspiring.

His name would have you think he bats cleanup for the 1927 Yankees, but Casey Comber is actually an Under Armour athlete with the UA Mission Run team right here in Baltimore. (Update: the man just finished in second-place at the iconic B.A.A. Mile over Boston Marathon weekend, less than a half-second behind winner Hobbs Kessler.) We got him into the studio to talk shoes, life as a professional athlete, and what it's like to sleep in an altitude tent all the time.

Yared Nuguse started it off by running 7:28.24, an American record for 3000m and then a few hours later Woody Kincaid shocked the nation and Joe Klecker by running 12:51.61, an American record at 5000m. The next day Katelyn Tuohy broke the NCAA record in the mile. Plus a sneaky good performance by Hobbs Kessler, a win and interesting comments from Drew Hunter, a world best by Keely Hodgkinson, Mo Farah news, a nice win by Ajee' Wilson, and another great meet this weekend in Boston.

A great listen. Our talk with Frank went longer than expected so we've got a super long podcast for today as before our talk with Frank we broke down the latest professional track and field news.

Domani, sabato 30 luglio è la giornata del 33° Meeting Internazionale di Atletica Leggera Sport e Solidarietà. Lo stadio Teghil di Lignano Sabbiadoro è pronto per ospitare una delle più importanti manifestazioni dedicate alla “Regina degli Sport” che si tengono in Italia e, soprattutto, una di quelle che negli ultimi decenni ha saputo rinnovarsi di più e consolidarsi meglio anche a livello internazionale, grazie alla presenza continua di atleti di alto spessore, in primis i fenomeni giamaicani. Campioni olimpici e mondiali si cimenteranno sulla pista dello stadio “G. Teghil” fra i Campionati del Mondo ad Eugene in Oregon (USA) ed i Campionati Europei di Monaco in agosto. Come accade fin dalla prima edizione, spazio anche alle giovani promesse, ai master e ad atleti con disabilità che, nel corso delle varie edizioni, hanno avuto modo di correre al fianco di grandi campioni. A raccontarci gli ultimi dettagli prima della partenza e i grandi ospiti attesi il direttore sportivo Stefano Scaini: GLI ATLETI Appuntamento a partire dalle 20 con i campioni olimpici e mondiali. Decisamente interessante la gara dei 100 metri femminili. L'olandese Dafne Schippers, due volte campionessa del mondo (dei 200 metri), nel 2015 a Pechino e nel 2017 a Londra, e con un 10”81 nei 100 metri come migliore prestazione individuale, se la vedrà in pista con avversarie toste come le giamaicane Nathasha Morrison, campionessa olimpica della 4×100 a Tokyo, due volte iridata e capace di un “personal best di 11”10, Shockoria Wallace (11”09), Kasheika Cameron (11”24) e Krystal Sloley (11”49). In pista anche le giovani speranze italiane Giorgia Bellinazzi e la friulana Aurora Berton, sicuramente spinta anche dai suoi tifosi personali. Questa è anche la gara di Shericka Jackson, presente nel suo ruolo di testimonial di Sport e Solidarietà 2022, oltre che madrina delle gare che vedranno impegnati, nel pomeriggio, gli Special Olympics. Solo all'ultimo momento si saprà se la campionessa olimpica cubana, reduce dalla vittoria iridata nei 200 metri a Eugene, sarà in gara a Lignano. Nella gara dei 100 metri maschili, riflettori puntati sul liberiano Emmanuel Matadi, bronzo continentale africano e velocista capace di scendere sotto i 10”: reduce dai Mondiali di Eugene, dove s'è spinto fino alla semifinale, Matadi ha un personale di 9”98. In pista con lui, occhio ai cinesi Deng, Gaufei, Haibin, GUanfeng e Xingquiang, al sudafricano Dambile e agli italiani Enrico Sancin e Federico Rossi. Il popolo friulano avrà applausi per Giada Carmassi, impegnata nella gara dei 100 ostacoli nella quale dovrà guardarsi soprattutto dalla campionessa ellenica Anais Karagianni e dall'americana Chanel Brissett, argento ai giochi Panamericani e capace di un primato personale di 12”52. Nel giro di pista, sui 400 metri femminili, la giamaicana Junelle Bromfield, bronzo olimpico in staffetta ed ex campionessa del mondo indoor, è la vedette di una gara di alto profilo spettacolare, contando anche la presenza dell'ucraina Kateryna Karpyuk e dell'olandese Eva Hovenkamp. Come sempre molto sentita è la gara dei 400 metri ostacoli maschile, che mette in palio il 9° trofeo Ottavio Missoni, dedicato all'indimenticabile stilista ed atleta che partecipò alle Olimpiadi di Londra nel 1948 proprio in questa specialità. Due nomi su tutti: gli americani David Kendziera e Aldrich Bailey jr. Per quanto riguarda il mezzofondo, attenzione al qatariota Mohamed Al Garni, componente della staffetta che attualmente detiene il record asiatico della staffetta sui 1500 metri e pluricampione continentale. A livello di tempi, l'americano Hobbs Kessler vanta il miglior “personal best” tra gli atleti presenti a Lignano nei 1500: 3'34”36. Inoltre, fresca reduce dai Mondiali di Eugene e dalla vittoria nei campionati universitari americani, la bertiolese Sintayehu Vissa (pb: 2'01”06) sarà la vedette della gara degli 800 metri, con l'australiana Sally Sanford e l'olandese Marissa Daminkk come principali...

Plus, recaps of the USATF 10,000m champs at Pre, and talk of the 9.86 by 20-year-old Oregon sprinter Micah Williams. 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.

In today's episode, I talk to Luke Warhurst. Luke is the Director of Partnerships and Social Media at the Very Nice Track Club, one of the world's fastest professional track teams, with athletes like five-time Olympian and two-time Olympic medalist Nick Willis, Olympian Mason Ferlic, and high school 1500m American record holder Hobbs Kessler. Wanting to document this amazing team, Luke started creating YouTube videos highlighting the workouts, race preparations, and lifestyle of the Very Nice Track Club. As a Michigan native and son of the legendary coach Ron Warhurst, running has always been a part of Luke's life and he shares some really interesting stories of being surrounded by this elite running community at such a young age. Luke is also a racing driver and he talks about this aspect of his life along with what he believes motorsports is doing right. Also, stay tuned for a special guest appearance by Hobbs Kessler, who, like I said before, is the high school American record holder in the 1500m and current professional runner for Adidas. I hope you all enjoy this episode!

Fresh off his 3rd place finish at the Olympic Trials steeplechase, Mason Ferlic, joins Chris, Kyle and Nick on the podcast to celebrate his newly booked trip to Tokyo. The group discusses his journey from the University of Michigan to getting dropped from his professional contract and to eventually finding a home with Tracksmith, both as an athlete and employee. Ferlic peels back the curtain to share his insights as to why he believes the importance of a balance between running, work and the rest of his life led him to this career highlight. Based out of Ann Arbor and training with the Very Nice Track Club, he is surrounded by the all-time great young American miler, Hobbs Kessler and one of the best veterans to ever do it, Nick Willis. This magic formula worked -- it is sending Mason Ferlic to the Olympics! TUNE IN AND LISTEN TO TRIALS TALK WITH CHRIS AND KYLE. Our daily podcast from the Olympic Trials is presented by Tracksmith.

The Very Nice Track Club meets very brutal banter! Your Hosts take on the array of highly talented Track and Field athletes ranging from High School Record Holders (Hobbs Kessler), NCAA Champions (Mason Ferlic) and Olympic Medalists (Nick Willis). The accolades of these individual athletes could fill more pages than your hosts book "Small School Big Dreams" The guests gang up on your host Josh Kerr and ask about his old NCAA Record, what his 3:31 1500m American Soil record meant & more. Dave & Josh do their best to handle the entourage around Hobbs Kessler but lost the battle when it came to the Banter Bowl. This rare and hilariously unique episode gives every perspective possible of the athletic journey: past, present & future. Whether you are out for a jog or doing a workout to quicken for a race; this episode will be just what you need to keep working. Oh, and your hosts refer to Nick Willis as past because if you're not careful he will certainly kick "past" you! ;) Sit back & Kick it to the sound of our voices. Enjoy this one of a kind episode brought to you by the most banterish hosts on the track and behind the mic.

In this episode, I recap my vacation to Colorado and Utah, I talk about Erriyon Knighton's new World Junior record in the 200 meters, Hobbs Kessler's new high school 1500 meter record, and how improvements in performance and adaptations to training come from a shift in your priorities. I also talk a little about the upcoming Olympic Trials and Olympics.

Hobbs Kessler recently shattered Alan Webb's high school 1500m record (also breaking Jim Ryun's 55 year old U20 record as well) with a 3:34.36. This time is also faster than the NCAA DI 1500 meter record. Kessler, who was a 4:24 miler as recently as the start of the pandemic, has committed to running at Northern Arizona. The question has arisen with him, as it did with Mary Cain, Katelyn Tuohy, and Drew Hunter before - should you capitalize on your financial value now and turn pro? Or should you go to college and develop there? Our answer, in typical Skieologian form, attacks the foundational issue with this question. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/seder-skier/support

"I have a really unique privilege of being able to do both worlds. I don't know if anyone's been able to work out with pros and do their easy runs with their high school team. It's super cool. It just works because of the circumstances of my dad being the coach and Ron (Warhurst) being the assistant coach at Skyline. I definitely wish a lot of people knew I'm not just training like a pro. I work out with those guys but I'm a high schooler and I treat running like I'm a high schooler. I just have fun with my teammates and jump in the river on runs and stuff." Hobbs Kessler is a high school senior competing for Skyline High School in Ann Arbor. He just made history this past weekend by running 3:34.36 for a new U.S. high school 1,500m record but it’s also now faster than the recent 3:34.68 NCAA record. Kessler’s time is faster than Jim Ryun’s U-20 record of 3:36.1 that was run back in 1966. And of course, this guarantees Kessler’s spot at the U.S. Olympic Trials later this month. What’s next for him? Well, he’s looking to win his first state title this weekend when he goes up against other people his age at the Michigan high school state meet. In this episode, you’ll learn more about his backstory including a better understanding of just how great of a rock climber he is, why his parents are his role models as runners, how coach Ron Warhurst plays the Yoda role in the Very Nice Track Club, the buzz about turning pro and much more.
Kevin and Gordon discuss Athing Mu's collegiate record, the biggest surprises from NCAA prelims, what Hobbs Kessler's high school record means for the future of US mid-distance running and the rest of a busy weekend.
