    Here's To The Bold & Brash - Anticipating Summer 2022

    Be sure to check out Sound Running's Coverage of the 5000m event we discuss in this episode on May 6th. You can access the PPV LINK HERE for $5.99. Seems really fair to us. Tomek & Steve give a short review of the Boston Marathon & anticipate the coming action in outdoor track & field this summer. Steve's Most Anticipated Cade Flatt - HS 800 runner. Want to see if he can run 1:46,45 to break the HS record. Only two HSers under 1:46 ever. Love his attitude. Focusing on World Juniors. Love his attitude & approach. He’s into MMA & brings that warrior mindset to an event that may be the closest to a MMA fight in energy & ferocity.  https://trackandfieldnews.com/high-schooler-cade-flatt-focusing-on-no-1-in-the-800/Tomek: I like Cade.  Women’s 800m at US Champs & World Champs - With Ajee WIlson’s win at WIC, how will Athing Mu respond? How does the new guard (Mu, Raeven Rogers, Michaela Meyer, Allie WIlson) of American women in the 800m respond to the “older” guard (A.Wlson, Kate Grace, Chanelle Price). There are HS athletes who we are still seeing amazing things from recently (Roisin WIllis-17 yo Sr - 2:00.05), Sophia Gorriaran-16 yo Jr -2:00.58) with new HS records this indoor season. That’s just the US. At WIC we missed seeing the two UK women who were finalist & one a medalist at the Games, I expect to see many epic battles at this distance. Watch the women's 800m OT Final 8 of the 9 finalists went under 2:00 & the 9th finished (Nia Atkins) fell down in the first 200m. Tomek: For sure, that would be interesting. Especially, this is going to be Athing’s first full pro year: Less races, more pressure to perform when it counts etc. At least she is at the same training/life environment as last year.  Elise Cranny - She’s run 14:33i & 30:14 out. SHe has ferocity, hunger, mental toughness & is poised to be our most competitive 5K/10K athlete in multiple generations. I won’t be surprised with a WC medal in Eugene & the women's world elite 5K/10K is not a place we expect to see an America woman from a tiny town in Colorado. Expect Jerry to have her ready & there is a seething anger boiling in the bellies of the Bowerman women. I expect Cranny to be all piss & vinegar at the WC Trial & WC in Eugene. Tomek: Also Karrisa Schwizer is back. And I doubt she wants to give away #1 5K-er to Elise ;-) But Elise showed good 1500m speed in her last race, which makes her hard to beat at 5k.  Men’s 1500/5K - With the Ingebretsen/Cheryuiot duels now at an epic level how will the rest of the world respond, esp the surging Aussie/UK threats.  Add an invigorated Ethiopian contingent & a rested recovered Cheptegei at the 5K, we are in for a very exciting series of races where Jakob now has the full weight of the pressure on his shoulders. Additionally, we have Grant Fisher/Mo Ahmed in the 5K/10K where the can be expected to be in the mix. This will be very interesting. Tomek: 1500m I bet Jakob is only thinking about WR :-) But then again, lots of changes in Team Ingebritsen  Tomek's Most Anticipated: US 1500m Can youngsters repeat 2021: Hocker, Hobbs, NeguseIs Centro done? Christian Nobel’s new D2 3:36:00 record Donovan Brazier vs World Sifan Hassan — what are her goals in 2022? It’s going to be epic either way Sprints Women: Abby Steiner (how fast she can go?)Sha'Carri Richardson (if she doesn’t perform, is going to quit?) Brittany Brown — can she be new US star? Jamaica vs USMen:Marcel Jocob vs Americans How fast can Erriyon Knighton go 200m? Vs Noah LylesMatthew Boling — only him and Carl Lewis sub 10, sub 20, >8m LJ. What is his future?
