    Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone Starting a Family, Noah Lyles vs Rai Benjamin Dream 150m Race, Marcell Jacobs Changes Coaches

    Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone announced that she will be starting a family in 2026 with her husband and taking the year off. This is big news for Sydney and an amazing personal achievement, but also comes at the perfect time in her career as there are no Olympics or World Championships in 2026. Lets discuss what this means for the women’s 400m this year, as well as some other women who have had children and returned to the track better than ever. Noah Lyles and Rai Benjamin announced that they may be running a 150m race at the Ostrava meeting on June 16th 2026. Though this is still many months away, this is a big opportunity to showcase something different in terms of events and hype for a specific event. But who else would we like to see race them in this 150m race? 2020 Olympic 100m Champion Lamont Marcel Jacobs recently announced that he will be returning to his long time coach Paolo Camossi. This comes off moving to Florida in 2023 to train with Rana Reider as well as dealing with various injury setbacks. Will this be a good move for him? We also breakdown some of the recent NCAA Highlights from the past weekend ⁠------------------------------------------- Sources: Sydney announcement: https://www.instagram.com/p/DT0e_r_j2sP/?hl=en&img_index=1 Noah vs Rai 150m race: https://x.com/LylesNoah/status/2015841450496290987 Lamont Marcell Jacobs Coaching Change: https://www.fidal.it/content/Mei-Jacobs-torna-ad-allenarsi-con-Camossi-/181849 NCAA Leaderboards: https://www.tfrrs.org/index.html ⁠------------------------------------------- Chapters: 00:00 Intro 11:22 Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone + 400m Landscape 45:50 Noah Lyles vs Rai Benjamin 150m in Ostrava 1:10:03 Marcell Jacobs Changes Coaches 1:17:49 NCAA Highlights 1:27:20 Athlete Sponsorship Changes ⁠------------------------------------------- 📱Twitter: https://x.com/EmeroleAnderson 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFinalLeg 📱Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/atkoeme/ 🎧⁠Subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts ⁠-------------------------------------------

    Is IShowSpeed Good for Track & Field? | Shaunae Miller-Uibo Returns to the Track | Letsile Tebogo Gets Offers to Change Nationality

    2x Olympic Champion Shauane Miller-Uibo announced that she gave birth to her 2nd child and is also making a return to the track in 2026. But considering how much the landscape of the 400m has changed over the past 3-4 years, will Shaunae be able to make a successful comeback? iShowSpeed recently raced Letsile Tebogo in Botswana as part of his tour of Africa. Speed has been engaging with track and field athletes more frequently over the past year, but is engagement with iShowspeed a net positive for Track & Field and a way to grow the sport? Letsile Tebogo recently spoke about receiving offers to change his nationality from Botswana to instead represent various countries in the Middle East. He ultimately denied those requests to transfer and continues to represent Botswana, but why did he choose to stay at home in Botswana instead of taking a likely large sum of money? ⁠------------------------------------------- Sources: Shaunae Miller-Uibo: https://www.instagram.com/hey_itsshaunae/reel/DTBWwsEEflK/?hl=en IShowSpeed Races Letsile Tebogo: https://x.com/CitiusMag/status/2008588776365584514 Letsile Tebogo Botswana Interview 1: https://x.com/TrackGazette/status/2000605969978437802 Letsile Tebogo Botswana Interview 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9APzecMeEHw ⁠------------------------------------------- Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:10 Shaunae Miller-Returns to the track 16:32 IShowspeed vs Letisile Tebogo 34:06 Letisle Tebogo's offers to switch nationality 51:22 Greatest Athletes of the 21st Century ⁠------------------------------------------- 📱Twitter: https://x.com/EmeroleAnderson 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFinalLeg 📱Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/atkoeme/ 🎧⁠Subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts ⁠-------------------------------------------
