It was Duplantis' eighth world record of his career. And he's still only 24 years old. *Mondo Jumps 6.24 (20'6") WR

Noah Lyles pulled off an incredible double, Mondo Duplantis and Ryan Crouser had record-breaking years, but there is no need to split this award: Kelvin Kiptum is our 2023 Men's Athlete of the Year. Faith Kiypegon (duh) wins our women's award.

• MB: World Athletics won’t name an AOY but we will – Let’s here your 2023 LetsRun Award nominations
• MB: Jakobs 2023 season vs Noahs 2023 season (I think Jakob's was better)

After World Athletics chose not to name a single athlete of the year, we're stepping in and handing out our own award. Meet the finalists and give us your vote. Our two winners - one man and one woman - will be announced on Monday. *MB: World Athletics won't name an AOY but we will - Let's here your 2023 LetsRun Award nominations

We asked Mondo and Warholm what the chances were of them actually getting together and racing a 100, one-on-one, and it produced one of the most entertaining back-and-forths we've ever seen at a press conference. *MB: Mondo vs Warholm at 100m - Who you got? The two stars have basically agreed to race after we asked them about it

Jonathan Gault has the highlights from an entertaining pre-race press conference for the Weltklasse Zurich featuring a bunch of newly-crowned world champions.

Mondo gave the Swiss fans exactly what he wanted - the highest vault ever outdoors (but he’s gone higher indoors). Meanwhile, refugee athlete Dominic Lobalu ran a 20-sec pb to stun Olympic bronze medalist Jacob Kiplimo. Also Olympic silver medallist Keely Hodgkinson was beaten as well.

The very strange 2020 track season is almost over as the 2020 DL season concludes Friday in Doha with some interesting distance races. For example, Doha will feature the three best men's steeplers from 2019, but they are all in the 1500. 1500 stars Faith Kipegon and Timothy Cheruiyot will both run the 800. The women's 3,000 is totally loaded with five 2019 World medalists, led by Hellen Obiri.

Duplantis now owns the world records indoors and outdoors, as after failing 14 times at the WR height this summer, he got the job done on #15. And he is still only 20 years old.

The 3000 should be incredible, while this may be Warholm's last shot at the 400 hurdles WR in 2020. Plus who will take down the stacked women's 800 that features 4 of the 5 fastest women of 2020?

What a meet! Sifan Hassan, Donavan Brazier, Noah Lyles, Joshua Cheptegei and many more stars will all compete in the best track meet of 2020 -- in front of real live fans -- on Friday in Monaco.

The format is far from traditional, but the most star-studded meet of the 2020 outdoor season so far -- which will be held in Oslo and remote sites around the world on Thursday -- will feature Duplantis, Lavillenie, Warholm, Cheruiyot, Manangoi, the Ingebrigtsens, and more.

Elle Purrier has arrived and we break Millrose down and look ahead to USAs and the Olympic Trials.

Get your weekly fix on the running world. This week we talk about who belongs on the Mt. Rushmore for Oregon T&F, Evan Jager's return, Jeema Reekie's 1:57, Vaporflys, Brett Robinson's sub-60 and get you ready for Millrose.

Coburn will race the WR holder Chepkoech for the first times since Coburn wondered if Chepkoech was clean last year.

LSU's Duplantis, the #2 outdoor jumper of all time, was the 2019 world leader at 6.00m, but South Dakota's Nilsen got PRs at 5.90 and 5.95 to score the massive upset -- and break his own meet record.

Texas Tech coach Wes Kittley shares the secrets of how he's built a national title contender from scratch and Florida coach Mike Holloway tells you how to actually win it all, " You win championships with quality, not quantity...Just because you have 100 kids at the meet doesn’t mean that you have 100 kids that can score.”

Some of the events at the 2017 Pre Classic are without a doubt better than the 2017 Rio Olympic finals. We're so excited we even preview the men's pole vault and women's 200 but we also will see a loaded women's 1500 with Faith Kipyegon, Laura Muir and Jenny Simpson and possibly the youngest sub-4 mile in history.

There's a lot of stuff we really found interesting in this one.

This week we take a look back at the whole 2016-2017 winter campaign and hand out awards. In the end, we bow down and praise Woody Kincaid, Brie Oakley, Mondo Duplantis, Laura Muir, Derek Thompson, Charlene Lipsey and Sam Chelanga. Then we analyze how important it is to be a total stud in college if you want to make the US Olympic team. All of that and much more.
