CITIUS MAG
11 days ago
Olympic bronze medalist Mary Moraa entered as the favorite but faded badly to last in a shocking turn of events at the Grand Slam Track meet in Kingston. In her absence, American Nikki Hiltz seized the moment—going wire-to-wire in a huge personal best of 1:58.23, claiming the world lead in the women’s 800m. Hiltz made their move early, hitting 400m in 58.34, and held off a furious final charge from Ethiopia’s Diribe Welteji, who closed in 1:58.29. Australia’s Jess Hull also delivered a big PR of 1:58.58 to finish third. 🔥 Top Results: 🥇 Nikki Hiltz – 1:58.23 (PB, World Lead) 🥈 Diribe Welteji – 1:58.29 🥉 Jess Hull – 1:58.58 (PB) FOLLOW CITIUS MAG ▶ Subscribe to the podcast: https://apple.co/3Byp72I ▶ On Twitter: http://twitter.com/CitiusMag ▶ On Instagram: http://instagram.com/citiusmag ▶ On Facebook: http://facebook.com/citiusmag ▶ Support us on Patreon: https://patreon.com/citiusmag ▶ On our website: http://citiusmag.com For other inquiries, contact us: chris@citiusmag.com Thanks for watching - please like, share and comment, and subscribe!

We’re talking paydays. Primetime. Professional track.
Welcome to Grand Slam Track, launching this weekend in Kingston, Jamaica—the first stop in a brand-new, big-budget, athlete-first pro league created by Michael Johnson.
You want Olympic stars? Try Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, Gabby Thomas, Grant Fisher, Cole Hocker, Fred Kerley, Mary Moraa—the best of the best, signed and showing up.
You want stakes? How does $100,000 per event winner sound? Yeah.
And you want drama? It's all baked in: Racers vs. Challengers. One weekend. Two events per athlete. Only one Slam Champion.
This all kicks off in Kingston, which is basically sprinting’s holy land. If anyone’s gonna test Fred Kerley or Kenny Bednarek on their 100m trash talk, it’s the Jamaican crowd… and Oblique Seville.
We’ve got Gabby vs. Marileidy. Yared vs. Kerr vs. Hocker. Elise Cranny sweating it out after a 30:36 in SoCal, now lining up in 88-degree heat for the 5000m. Sydney McLaughlin opening her season in April. And a 1500m/800m field on the men’s side that looks more stacked than your TikTok algorithm.
So let’s get into it: the matchups, the payouts, and the storylines that’ll define Grand Slam Track.
