London's New King, Faith Kipyegon's Moonshot, Chebet's Diamond League Madness, Phenoms at Penn
What a weekend!
Nathan Green and UW turned heads at Penn but what about Ethan Strand and Gary Martin?
Sabastian Sawe won London and staked his claim to #1 marathoner in the world although John Korir may want to argue. Former #1 Eliud Kipchoge put up a fine performance.
Sifan Hassan's 4 month lay-off was too much as Tigist Assefa set a women's only world record and took home over $300,000.
The Diamond League opened and Beatrice Chebet was better than ever, while Karsten Warholm got a 300m world record. What's up with Grant Holloway?
And what about Faith Kipyegon's sub 4 attempt?
