This week in track and field, Chris Chavez and Anderson Emerole discuss: Kenya cutting down down on its list of athletes for their Olympic Marathon team selection (Find out who is in and who is out); some of the key performances of the Miramar Invitational in Florida; Abby Steiner raced for the first time since season-ending surgery last summer; Olympic silver medalist Christine Mboma is eligible to compete in the 100m and 200m.
Topics discussed:
– Athletics Kenya has trimmed down on its names for its potential marathon quad for the Paris Olympics. We are now down to five men and six women who are up for selection for the Games.
– The Miramar Invitational lost its spice after Sha’Carri Richardson and Shericka Jackson withdrew from the meet in the days leading up to it but we still saw strong runs from Kenny Bednarek, Britton Wilson, Alaysha Johnson and Melissa Jefferson.
– In her first race back from surgery to repair a bone spur in her heel that was pressing up against her Achilles, Abby Steiner ran 51.58 to win the 400m at the Gamecock Invitational in South Carolina.
– MTA was reportedly asking New York Road Runners for $750,000 a year to make up for the lost toll revenue from shutting down the top and bottom parts of the Verazzano Bridge.
– Namibia’s Christine Mboma is reportedly now eligible to compete again. She was the Olympic silver medalist in the 200m at just 18 years old. She is now 20 years old but has not competed in the last two years because she’s had to undergo hormonal suppression therapy to lower her naturally-high levels of testosterone in her body. (If you hear an ad over the discussion, a new version has been re-uploaded)

On this week's show, Chris Chavez, Kyle Merber and Katelyn Hutchison break down all of the U.S. sprinters who have set the tone early that 2023 is going to be a FAST one. We saw some big performances in Miramar and Baton Rouge from Sha’Carri Richardson (10.57 with a 4.1m/s wind reading) and Aleia Hobbs (10.87 with a legal 2.0m/s wind reading). 400m hurdles world championship silver medalist Rai Benjamin threw down a 44.21 for a 400m PR in California. Abby Steiner and Christian Coleman held off strong challenges from young stars to win the women's and men's 200m at the Miramar Invitational, respectfully.
Plus our Buy and Sell segment features a discussion of the Arcadia Invitational, the BAA stopping DraftKings from betting on the Boston Marathon, the marathon race walk mixed relay addition to the 2024 Paris Olympics.
