Alison Dos Santos On Earning His Second Olympic Bronze Medal In The 400m Hurdles + Joining Grand Slam Track
Podcast

 We actually recorded this while we were in Paris but had to keep it under wraps for a bit. This was just a few days after Alison Dos Santos earned his second Olympic bronze medal in the men’s 400m hurdles. He went on to win the 2024 Diamond League title and finished the year with a personal best of 46.29, which puts him at No. 3 on the all-time list behind Karsten Warholm and Rai Benjamin.

We talk a bit about the state of the men’s 400m hurdles. His experience in Paris and his excitement around becoming the first South American athlete to sign with Grand Slam Track. He will be contesting the 400m and 400m hurdles four times per year at the four Slams in 2025 for the inaugural season of Michael Johnson’s professional track league.

You can read more about Dos Santos and all of the Grand Slam Track recent signings over at CITIUSMAG.com.

Kenneth Rooks After His Audacious Olympic Silver Medal At The Paris Olympics 3000m Steeplechase Final | Recap + Reflections
Podcast

"I realized I was starting to open up a little bit of a gap and I'm like, ‘Oh my gosh, am I going to win?’ I probably was looking around way too much. But in my mind I was like, ‘Is this really happening right now? That’s what was going through my head. It was just adrenaline and just taking in the moment of, ‘Wow, this is incredible. Is this really happening?’ Then just trying to dig deep to finish the race."

Kenneth Rooks just brought home a silver medal in the men’s 3000-meter steeplechase at the Paris Olympics. How’d he do it? Well, if you haven’t watched the race yet. Go on NBC Sports’ YouTube channel, watch it and then pick this podcast back up because he comes from the back of the pack to nearly pull off one of the biggest upsets in Olympic history. His final time of 8:06.41 shattered his personal best by an astounding nine seconds and makes him the second-fastest American ever in this event.

Kenneth’s past 14 months have been amazing. Just a year ago, he was relatively unknown on the international stage, but after winning the NCAA title, the U.S. Championships in dramatic fashion by falling and getting back up and now an Olympic silver, he’s shown the world what he’s capable of. We have at least two past episodes with Kenneth that you can go back and listen to.

In a race dominated by the likes of world record holder Lamecha Girma and defending Olympic champion Soufiane El Bakkali, Kenneth’s surge in the final lap put everyone on notice. He boldly took the lead with 400 meters to go, and although El Bakkali eventually reclaimed the top spot, Kenneth’s audacious run secured him a place in history.

It was one of the biggest surprises of the Games but Kenneth takes us through why he believes it was possible, the training it took to get there and why he believes he can go a little faster. He’s just 24 years old and just getting started.

Ep.304 – Olympische Emotionen 2024: Bronzemedaillen und Überraschungssiege
Podcast

Olympische Emotionen 2024: Bronzemedaillen und Überraschungssiege

In dieser packenden Episode des MainAthlet Leichtathletik Podcasts sprechen wir über die emotionalen Höhepunkte und Überraschungen der Olympischen Spiele 2024 in Paris. Die Olympischen Spiele neigen sich dem Ende zu, aber die spannenden Wettkämpfe und beeindruckenden Leistungen haben uns noch lange nicht losgelassen.

Wir beginnen mit einem Rückblick auf den zweiten Tag des Siebenkampfs der Frauen, wo Caro Schäfer ihre olympische Karriere mit einem soliden Weitsprung und einer starken Leistung im Speerwurf krönt. Ihre Bestweite von 46,45 Metern war ein würdiger Abschluss ihrer großartigen Laufbahn.

Auch die deutschen 4x400-Meter-Staffeln der Frauen und Männer haben uns begeistert. Während das Frauenquartett knapp den Einzug ins Finale verpasste, überzeugten die Männer mit einer der schnellsten deutschen Zeiten seit Jahrzehnten, auch wenn es am Ende nicht für das Finale reichte. Wir diskutieren die Leistungen und analysieren, was in den kommenden Jahren für beide Staffeln möglich ist.

Ein besonderes Highlight dieser Folge ist die Analyse der deutschen 4x100-Meter-Staffel der Frauen, die mit einer Bronzemedaille in einem dramatischen Rennen brillierte. Mit der erfahrenen Alexandra Burghardt an der Spitze und Gina Lückenkempers sensationeller Zeit von 9,89 Sekunden in der Kurve hat das Team eine beeindruckende Leistung abgeliefert.

Ein weiteres emotionales Ereignis war das Kugelstoßen der Frauen, bei dem Yemisi Ogunleye mit einem Stoß über die 20-Meter-Marke die Goldmedaille sicherte. Ihre beeindruckende Leistung und die damit verbundene emotionale Geschichte berühren uns tief.

Nicht weniger spannend war das 400-Meter-Hürden-Finale der Männer, in dem Rai Benjamin überraschend die Goldmedaille gewann und Karsten Warholm hinter sich ließ. Dieses Ergebnis zählt zu den großen Überraschungen der Olympischen Spiele 2024.

Wir werfen außerdem einen Blick auf das bevorstehende Marathon-Finale der Männer und die weiteren spannenden Entscheidungen am letzten Tag der Olympischen Spiele. Sei dabei und erlebe die emotionalen Höhen und Tiefen des größten Sportereignisses der Welt hautnah!
