Samuel Tefera broke Hicham El Guerrouj’s world record in a thrilling race and then barely celebrated.

We break it down and are joined (79 minute mark) by Tefera’s rabbit in the mile record, Jordan Wiliamsz who reveals he never spoke to Tefera before or after the race.

Article continues below player.

We had a ton of other serious action including road 5k world records and not so serious action like Anthony Famiglietti going sub 4 in the mile at age 40 thanks to a dog and Lance Armstrong and another drug cheat showing up at the Austin Marathon.

Plus live commentary and reaction of Jakob Ingebrigtsen’s 1500m win in Dusseldorf over Tefera on Wednesday.

Show notes to come. Listen in the player below or at your favorite podcast provider. (You can download the podcast via the Soundcloud link below if you’d rather do that).
