High School Nationals, Paris Diamond League & iShowSpeed Hits the Track | The Meet Up (Ep. 16)

Her ability to excel across multiple events, setting meet records and showing strategic, versatile pacing across the 100, 200, 300, 400, and 400 hurdles, marking a historic triple-meet-records run.
Diamond League Final, Gabby Thomas Misses Tokyo, and Sound Running’s Founder | The Meet Up Ep. 25
Q: Jesse, you mentioned many brands were vying to take this over. Why did Sound Running end up leading the effort?
The team emphasized logistical readiness and a strong, collaborative network; by aligning with Aventus and Jorge Torres, they could move quickly, secure permits, and establish top-level partnerships, which made them the natural choice to carry the heritage forward.
Inside The Marathon Project 10: Jared Ewing
Q: What has been the key to moving from breaking forward to approaching a sub-3, and how has high-volume training and coaching changed your approach?
A steady, high-volume buildup, smart recovery, and a willingness to adapt with a coach. After breaking sub-4, confidence grew and I kept pushing with structured training, which helped me push faster than even before with one leg.
Inside The Marathon Project 10: Jared Ewing
Q: Why was participating in The Marathon Project the right move for you, and is it part of your pursuit to see how fast you can go?
Yes, exactly. I want to move past the hump of a sub-3 marathon and work with a coach like Ben Rosario to push my limits, surround myself with pros, and see how fast I can go with this leg.
Quincy Wilson Dominates Penn Relays, London Marathon WR + Allyson Felix Comeback? | Meet Up Ep. 51
Q: What was the mood before the Penn Relays race?
The coach described a mix of calm focus and a readiness to compete, with athletes channeling a boxed-in boxing intro mentality to stay locked in and perform at their best.
