Production via Wyatt Barnsley On this week’s episode of The Stride Report Podcast, Ben and Garrett break down a historic weekend of performances headlined by Simeon Birnbaum’s NCAA record 3:31.69 over 1500 meters, sparking the question of whether he can finally shake the men’s 1500-meter national meet curse. The guys also dive into Geoffrey Kirwa’s incredible steeplechase run, Rosemary Longisa’s NCAA #2 all-time 1500-meter effort and a wave of elite 800-meter performances led by Colin Sahlman. They also highlight Emmaculate Jemutai’s sub-2:00 (800) breakthrough, Jane Hedengren’s continued dominance with another NCAA 5k record and Habtom Samuel’s closing speed to break his own 5k record. The episode wraps with standout distance results from Sophie Novak, Elsingi Kipruto and Caren Kiplagat as the outdoor track season reaches another level. Be sure to listen, subscribe and review!
