  • Great listen!

    I like how it’s based on true research studies and not just “I’ve run for a while and my opinion matters”.

    Does a good job turning complex, PhD level research into digestible learnings for me as a runner. Excited to keep hearing more!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Kansas State T&F Recruiting Coordinator and Assistant Coach - Trey Brokaw
Q: What was your thesis on during grad school?
The thesis focused on limiting factors to performance in collegiate middle-distance runners, with running economy identified as a primary predictor of performance, along with an in-depth look at weight training.
Justyn Knight: Overcoming Injury and Being Grateful for What’s in Front of You
Q: When did you realize you were good at running and feel that you could pursue it seriously beyond other sports?
I recognized my potential during high school after transitioning from basketball and volleyball; a pivotal moment was excelling in gym class and then joining track, which led to a track-focused path and later college success.
NCAA Track and Field Championship Predictions
Q: Who are the standout contenders in the men's 800 and why do you think Tyrese Taylor stands out?
Tyrese Taylor is highlighted for his sprint speed reserve and a strong 800m PR of 144.15 with a 143 at Pan Am Games last summer, suggesting a high ceiling. His combination of speed and endurance, along with a positive progression in recent seasons, makes him a strong challenger in a deep field, especially if he maintains his speed into the later rounds.
NCAA Track and Field Championship Predictions
Q: What is the format for advancing from regionals to Nationals for different events, and how many times might athletes race if they double in longer distances?
The rules vary by event, but generally the top athletes from regional heats advance, with some events taking into account times as well as placement. In events like the 800, top three in a heat plus the next fastest times qualify, while longer events have different heat-based qualification structures; athletes doubling (e.g., 15 and 5K) can end up racing multiple times across the meet, potentially three to four times if they advance through heats.
The Spectrum of Training with Olympians Joe and Sage Hurta-Klecker
Q: Do you get excited for workouts when you know you can be a little rested and still push hard?
Yes, there are sessions that feel especially fun when rested, allowing them to push beyond previous marks and translate that freshness into better paces, which makes workouts enjoyable and productive.
