For 80 meters, Kishane Thompson looked like the man to beat. Exploding out of the blocks in the men's 100-meter final at the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo, the Jamaican sprint sensation surged into the lead, his long, fluid strides daring the field to catch him.But just as in Paris a year ago, the closing meters would tell the story. This time it wasn't Noah Lyles, but his countryman Oblique Seville who reeled him in. Thompson crossed the line in 9.82 seconds, securing the silver medal behind Seville's blistering 9.77 – the fastest global final since 2019.For Thompson, it was validation: back-to-back podium finishes at the sport's biggest stages, and proof that Jamaica has not just one, but two world-class sprinters carrying the legacy of Bolt and Blake into a new era.His silver, paired with Seville's gold, delivered Jamaica's first men's 100m 1–2 at a global championship since the London Olympics.He spoke to Anderson Emerole about the 100m final at the World Championships.____________Host: Anderson Emerole | @atkoeme on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠Guest: Kishane Thompson | @ iamkishane_ on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr |⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠____________PRESENTED BY ASICSFor the third consecutive year, CITIUS MAG is proud to partner with ASICS for our global championship coverage.

Sometimes the most coolest moments in sport arrive by accident. When Julia Paternain crossed the finish line of the Tokyo World Championships marathon, she wasn't thinking about history and she wasn't even sure the race was over. Yet in that instant of disbelief, she had just given Uruguay its first-ever World Championships medal.In just her second marathon, the 25-year-old stunned the world with a fearless run, climbing from 15th place at halfway to finish third in 2:27:23 behind legends Tokyo Olympic champion Peres Jepchirchir of Kenya and former world record holder Tigist Assefa of Ethiopia. For a runner once who was among the last ones qualified for the championships, the bronze was unthinkable — and unforgettable.Born in Mexico, raised in England, tested in the NCAA system in the U.S., and now calling Flagstaff home, Paternain carries a layered identity but an unwavering pride of all those places. And with her medal, a nation of three million found itself on the global podium for the very first time.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠⁠⁠Guest: Julia Paternain | @juliapaternain_ on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr |⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠____________PRESENTED BY ASICSFor the third consecutive year, CITIUS MAG is proud to partner with ASICS for our global championship coverage.

The World Athletics Championships marathon in Tokyo was always going to be a test of patience, heat management, and guts and two American women rose to the occasion.For over an hour, Susanna Sullivan was the story of the race. A sixth-grade math teacher from Virginia, she surged to the front by 5K, running alone through the streets of Tokyo with nothing but the sticky, humid air and a clock for company. By halfway, she had built a 63-second lead on the pack of global stars behind her. And when they finally came for her, Sullivan didn't panic. She held her rhythm, managed the late miles and battled all the way to the line for fourth place in 2:28:17 — just seconds away from becoming the third American woman ever to medal in a World Championship marathon.Alongside her, Jess McClain was running her own masterclass in composure. McClain tucked in behind Sullivan early, endured the surging heat, and stayed locked in when the race splintered. Running smart and steady, McClain delivered the best global performance of her career, finishing eighth in 2:29:20. In a field stacked with some of the fastest women of all-time, McClain proved she belongs.Peres Jepchirchir and Tigist Assefa settled gold and silver with a final-lap sprint inside Japan National Stadium. Uruguay's Julia Paternain stunned the world with a historic bronze. But it was Sullivan and McClain who gave Team USA its heartbeat. Two working professionals, two fearless racers.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠⁠Guest: Susanna Sullivan & Jess McClain | @susannasullivan4 on Instagram & @jesstonn on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr |⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠____________PRESENTED BY ASICSFor the third consecutive year, CITIUS MAG is proud to partner with ASICS for our global championship coverage.

A year after Olympic heartbreak, Geordie Beamish is a world champion. Today the 28-year-old won the 3000m steeplechase at the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo. Ranked 44th in the world, the best in the sport literally did not see him coming, as he surged to victory. Sports reporter Felicity Reid spoke to Lisa Owen.

Sports Broadcaster and Author Warwick Hadfield joined Philip Clark on Nightlife to discuss the latest news and issues in sports with his weekly wrap on events. 

Valarie Allman has known the joy of Olympic gold. Twice. She's stood atop the podium in Tokyo and Paris. She's held world leads and set marks that haven't been seen since the 1980s. But until now, one medal had eluded her.In Tokyo once again, which was the site of her first Olympic triumph, Allman finally became a world champion. With a 69.48-meter toss, she claimed her first global title, winning by the largest margin in 18 years. It was a performance that broke open the event, stamped her dominance with a 29-meet win streak, and made her the first American woman ever to pair Olympic and World outdoor gold in a throwing event.After world bronze in 2022 and silver in 2023, this was about closure — about finishing the climb and silencing any doubts. In this conversation LIVE from the ASICS House in Tokyo, she calls it a dream come true.The moment itself was pure Valarie: lying down in the ring after the competition, arms and legs carving a victory angel into the infield grass. A mixture of joy, relief, and the playfulness that has made her one of the most beloved figures in U.S. track and field.Now, with two Olympic titles, a world crown, and the year's farthest throw on her résumé, Allman has fully written her name into history — not just as the face of U.S. throwing, but as one of the greatest to ever pick up the discus.____________Hosts: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ + Paul Hof-Mahoney | ⁠⁠@phofmahoney on Instagram⁠Guest: Val Allman | @valallman123 on Instagram____________PRESENTED BY ASICSFor the third consecutive year, CITIUS MAG is proud to partner with ASICS for our global championship coverage.

With the return of Parliament, we found out how the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition handle each other -- and now we'll ask the House Leader how the government plans to handle Canadians' money. The exchanges between MPs today revolved around familiar themes on familiar issues; the CBC's Catherine Cullen tells us what's different this time around. Get this party re-started. The NDP returned to the House of Commons with a mere seven seats; we'll hear how that baker's half-dozen plans to avoid getting sidelined. Trump administration cuts shut down a consortium of doctors who specialize in childhood brain tumours -- which, in turn, means young cancer patients will be shut out of clinical trials in Canada. It's a marathon, not a sprint. But then it's a sprint. At the World Athletics Championships, the men's marathon ends with a top-speed race to the photo-finish -- a staggering achievement when most of us would have been staggering. An annual competition in San Francisco puts the "wha" in "guacamole" -- as contestants come through with some of the weirdest recipes imaginable when the chips are down.As It Happens, the Monday Edition. Radio that knows all guacamole champs have the same motto: "Mashin' accomplished".

There's a new wedding trend that's trying to get the guests to help pay for the honeymoon of the newlyweds, and even though it's still summer…some stores have already got their Christmas stuff out on the floors. Some sad stats about people who are addicted to using ChatGPT, and there were not one….not two…but at least THREE green dildos thrown onto the fields during yesterday's NFL games! And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy who tunneled into his upstairs neighbor's apartment, a drone that was being used to locate some lost dogs in Maine was shot out of the sky, a couple spent four years trying to track down a wedding crasher who accidentally ended up in their wedding day pictures, and a #FloridaWoman who's mad at her bf for eating all her marathon snacks.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, hosts Amit Kamath and Mihir Vasavda turn their attention to the World Athletics Championships, scheduled for September 13–21.

These days, she lives and breathes life as an elite, and in today's conversation she talks about the hurdles she's conquered (including an awful dog bite, bone injury, and transferring schools) and powerful decisions she's made to make it to the top of her game. Plus: Her excitement over making her first U.S. Outdoors team for World Athletics Championships in Tokyo, and how she's preparing for the big competition.SOCIAL@josettenorris@emilyabbate@hurdlepodcastMENTIONED IN THIS EPISODEMiles to Go CoachingOFFERSAG1 | Head to ⁠⁠DrinkAG1.com/Hurdle⁠⁠ to get a free welcome kit (valued at $75) with 5 free travel packs and a year's supply of D3K2 with your purchase of AG1 next gen.

Just weeks later, she was dropping under two minutes in the 800, running 1:59.39 to earn silver at the USATF Outdoor Championships in Eugene.Her run through the rounds in Eugene was just as electric. In the semifinals, Congdon clocked a lifetime best of 1:58.42, finishing ahead of Olympic medalist Raevyn Rogers and punching her ticket to the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo this September.This trajectory checks out when you trace it back a bit: Growing up in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, Congdon was a multi-time state champion in the 800 and 1600.At Northern Arizona University, she found a program built for producing champions—and 2025 has become the year she's turned potential into proof. In February, she stormed to a Husky Classic mile win in 4:27.77, rewriting the meet, school, and Big Sky record books. Months later, she stood on the NCAA podium in the 1500.With Tokyo on the horizon, Maggi isn't just another name on the start list—she's a serious medal contender with momentum that feels unstoppable.In today's conversation, Maggi walks me through this breakthrough at USAs, the blueprint that got her here, her relationship with Coach Mike Smith, going Pro with NIKE, and a glimpse into her future, her ambitions for Tokyo, and so much more. Tap into the Maggi Congdon Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-BUY MERCH BEFORE IT'S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.run-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

From smashing personal bests to stepping onto the global stage — Seamus Derbyshire is one of the brightest rising stars in British athletics. In 2025 alone, the 25-year-old has: Clocked 48.47s in the 400m hurdles — the sixth-fastest time ever by a UK runner Won bronze at the British Championships Represented Team GB in the 4x400m relay at the European Indoors Hitting the qualification time for the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo

In the early 20th century, in a remote village in Hungary, a group of women, driven to despair by their violent, abusive husbands, decided to take matters into their own hands. Their solution to their difficult life circumstances was arsenic, a deadly poison easily extracted from fly paper or arsenic-rich “flystones". The women began slipping this deadly substance into their husband's porridge, stews and drinks and according to some estimates, up to 300 people in the Nagyrév region were murdered in the space of two decades. In this episode, Hope Reese, author of The Women Are Not Fine, joins Róisín Ingle to explain why this deadly sisterhood of women were driven to kill, how the murders spiralled out of control and how they were eventually caught and punished for their crimes.But first podcast producer Aideen Finnegan is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including the crowning of the 2025 Rose of Tralee, Sally Rooney's support for Palestine Action and why Rhashidat Adeleke is out of this year's World Athletics Championships. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this episode of our sports podcast, we break down the controversial viral video from the US Track and Field Championships involving long jumper Tara Davis-Woodall and social media personality Coach T. We provide the full context behind their confrontation, including Coach T's history with Tara and her husband, Paralympian Hunter Woodall, and explain why she was right to defend her space. We also discuss the post race drama between sprinters Noah Lyles and Kenny Bednarek, (Kung Fu Kenny) analyzing "the look" and the shove that has the track and field world talking ahead of the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo.In the world of team sports, we get excited for the NFL preseason as fans of the Philadelphia Eagles and share why football is the perfect sport to follow.

We also cover the wild story of a fan getting tackled while trying to crash the Tour de France finish line and chat about the new Travis Barker 5k race series.We have a hot take on fajitas and the scam of pick-your-own fruit, then dive into a chaotic parenting story about a missing Croc that required a full photo investigation to solve. We also share an anecdote about meeting new neighbors, the pressure of adopting a dog, and Bucky's interesting bathroom habits.

The Rundown returns for this week's episode of the Shakeout Podcast.

After missing the outdoor seasons in 2023 and 2024 with injury, Max is back and better than ever in 2025, outkicking an elite field of Canadian middle-distance talent to win his first senior national title last week in Ottawa. With his eyes set on a qualifying mark for Tokyo, he joins the show to discuss his return from injury, his record breaking season, and how he's leaned into his status as the dark horse in the hotly contested qualifying battle for Canadian team heading to Tokyo. Subscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts.Follow The Shakeout Podcast @shakeoutpodcastHuge thank you to this week's sponsor Altitude Sports.

She ran a debut marathon that most athletes would fantasise about – 2:22:17 – which earnt her the title of 2nd fastest British woman ever (shared with Charlotte Purdue at the time). But Calli describes her 2023 debut as both a blessing and a curse. Her time qualified her for the Paris Olympics, which would be her second marathon ever – talk about baptism by fire!  After a disappointing DNF at Paris, Calli bounced back in a BIG way! She came 7th at Berlin in 2024, running a PB of 2:21:24, solidifying her place as the 2nd best Brit all-time. And earlier this year, she put herself right in the mix at Boston, coming home with 6th place. We talk about Calli's time training with Melbourne Track Club a few years back, and the mindset shift she made after some frustrating years of not making teams. Calli now has plenty of opportunities in front of her. She's been selected to run the marathon for Great Britain at the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo this year, but is likely to have another option in the 10,000m (maybe even the 5,000m – let's see)! And most importantly, we also get the love story between Calli and now husband/coach Nick Hauger – and it's a real goodie!   -- Follow us on Instagram: @callirianne @runwithit.pod @elisebeacom -- Intro/outro music by Dan Beacom Graphic design by Kate Scheer

Mackenzie Little won Commonwealth Javelin silver in 2022 and World bronze in 2023. She won those medals whilst qualifying as a medical doctor.Following her bronze at the Worlds in Budapest, she was due back at the hospital to continue her training, but had to delay her departure for Australia so that she could attend her medal ceremony. She describes how flying back from a Worlds or an Olympics and going straight into a night shift is a very grounding experience with no time to dwell on the highs or lows of competition.After her medal in Budapest, there were patients who couldn't have cared less where she'd just been. Equally though, after personal disappointment at the Paris Olympics, her patients' enthusiasm and excitement for her even being at the Olympics gave her a sense of perspective on what she had achieved.Mackenzie is currently a second year doctor. She explains how she plots a course through life that allows her to continue her medical training and her track and field career. We recorded this episode in Oslo, where Mackenzie had used some of her annual holiday allocation to fly from Australia to Norway in order to compete at that Diamond League meet. On those ‘whirlwind' trips to Europe, as well as competing, she says she gets more sleep than when she's at home working shifts as a doctor. Briefly, having graduated from college in the United States before starting med school in Australia, Mackenzie competed for a European season as ‘just' an athlete, and found that she was ‘rubbish'. Mackenzie believes she is at her best when balancing her academic commitments with the demands of being a professional track and field athlete.Mackenzie won the US Collegiate title twice and was also a room-mate of another former Warm Up Track guest – the double Olympic discus champion Valarie Allman.We discuss imposter syndrome, which Mackenzie feels both ways. She wonders whether her fellow athletes think she's a part-timer, who hasn't sacrificed enough and isn't fully dedicated to her sport. The anxiety is also there in a medical setting – but this time it's the worry that her fellow doctors might think she's an ‘air-head athlete'.The Australian thinks that being a javelin thrower makes the balancing of her two careers possible. If she was, for example, a middle or long distance runner, she knows that there wouldn't be enough hours in day to fit in her training around her day job. Mackenzie believes that the real world demands of medicine, full of situations ‘where you've just got to do it', stands her in good stead in an athletics environment. It might be raining, she may have lost her luggage, but she can switch into competition mode and get it done.Mackenzie isn't sure whether she'll have to choose one path or another, or when that decision might need to be made, it's about what she can achieve now.Image: Bronze medalist, Australia's Mackenzie Little celebrates with her National flag and medal after the women's javelin throw final during the World Athletics Championships at the National Athletics Centre in Budapest on August 25, 2023.

Karsten Warholm has been one of the biggest stars in world athletics since winning the 400m hurdles world title in 2017, going onto become Olympic champion and win multiple World and European titles.But why has the Norwegian felt like he has needed a ‘reboot' ahead of targeting a fourth world title at the 2025 World Athletics Championships in Tokyo?Warholm shares more in a special podcast with Sportsworld's Lee James ahead of the start of the 2025 season, including an insight into his training, how the new 300m hurdles Diamond League event came about and whether there could be a head-to-head race between him and 110m hurdles world champion Grant Holloway.Image: Karsten Warholm of Norway with flag after competing in the Men's 400m Hurdles during Day 14 of Athletics - Olympic Games Paris 2024 at Stade de France on August 9, 2024 in Paris, France.
