On this week's show we spend most of the first hour breaking down the 2023 Berlin marathon where Tigst Assefa ran an incredible 2:11:53. How shocked were we by the run? What it made it possible - pacing, shoes, talent, or doping? Eliud Kipchoge got the men's win in the 8th fastest time in history but is he starting to slip? The US men did not do well - will they even get three into the Olympics on world ranking? Should Paul Chelimo run the marathon Trails or does he have a better shot in the 5000? We break it down for you. Eugene, Oregon will host the US Olympic Track and Field Trials and Rojo is irate.
