The LetsRun crew takes one final look at Faith Kipyegon's Breaking 4 attmempt. It came up short, but what does it mean? Why was her final time, not really her time?

Kishane Thompson entered rare territory by running 9.75 & the 50th Prefontaine Classic is this weekend. Could the mile world record go?

And Oregon legend Bill Dellinger has passed.

What a week. Nico Young blasted a 12:45 to get the huge win in Oslo, while Josh Hoey went 1:42, Donavan Brazier 1:43, and Andreas Almgren (a "random" Swede) went 12:44.

Plus NCAA stars were born, the Gjert Ingebrigtsen trial ended, and Grand Slam Track may be over as well.

Nico Young did it. He ran 12:45.27 to beat a star studded Diamond League field in Oslo Norway (and break Grant Fisher's outdoor record).

What does it mean for Nico? For American distance running? For Grant Fisher?

Want a detailed? Written recap of the weekend? Read The Week That Was

The collegiate action heated up with fast times across the board and some controversy at the ACC Champs.

Sophie O'Sullivan looked impressive, Simeon Birnbaum's delivered, Parker Wolfe was impressive, but is Ethan Strand the one shoe companies should be focused on?

The Johnson twins are now a force in NCAA sprinting and Nick Symmonds made it to the top of Mt. Everest.

Grand Slam Track has made some changed and Sha'Carri Richardson had a disappointing opening to her 20245 season. We break it all down.
