Yared Nuguse earned his fifth Diamond League victory, Kenny Bednarek ran a world-leading 19.69, and Frederik Ruppert became the first non-African-born man to break 8:00 in the steeplechase. We discuss Nuguse's historic streak, whether Cam Myers is on a world record trajectory, and what to expect when 17-year-old Cooper Lutkenhaus makes his Diamond League debut against Emmanuel Wanyonyi and Marco Arop.

Nuguse, who set a (since-broken) WR of 3:46.63 last year, will be up against Hobbs Kessler and Australian teen sensation Cameron Myers.

Yared Nuguse ended his 2025 season with a 3:47.7 win at the 5th Avenue Mile, but the victory came with reflection. He admitted Grand Slam Track “had definitely some impact” on his year, saying it might be “a one-off race thing” going forward. From world-record highs to missing Worlds, Nuguse offered candid thoughts on his season and what lies ahead in 2026.

Yared Nuguse wins the 2025 5th Ave. Mile in 3:47.7 and Gracie Morris takes the women’s crown in 4:15.5. Post-race, stars reflected on breakthroughs, setbacks, and what’s next.

Talk about high-stakes drama. Americans Josh Hoey and Yared Nuguse need to win Thursday's DL final to make it to next month's World Championships in Tokyo, but Emmanuel Wanyonyi and Niels Laros are standing in their way. And the meet ends with a scintillating 200m with Noah Lyles and Letsile Tebogo.

After finishing 5th at USAs, Yared Nuguse began his quest for Worlds with a strong 1500m win in Silesia. His 3:33.19 finish puts him on track to qualify for the Diamond League final — and keep his Tokyo dream alive.

Hodgkinson just missed her pb by running 1:54.74 in her first race in 12 months, Faith Kipyegon Kipyegon came just shy of the 8:06.11 WR in the 3000, Kishane Thompson beat Noah Lyles, 9.87 to 9.90, while Masai Russell (12.19) and Karsten Warholm (46.28) set DL records in the 100H/400H.

Some of the fastest Americans in 2025 won’t be at Worlds. Josh Hoey. Yared Nuguse. Tia Jones. Rojo looks at who went home most devastated from USAs.

It's been 89 years since the US had the same top three in consecutive USA men's 1500 finals. Could Cole Hocker, Yared Nuguse, and Hobbs Kessler change that in 2025? Or will recent college grads Ethan Strand and Nathan Green run their way onto the team? Already this year, Hocker has run personal bests in the 800 (1:45.13), mile (3:47.43), 3,000 (7:23.14), and 5,000 (12:57.82). He ran faster and finished higher at Pre this year compared to last year. Last year, Hocker made a big jump in fitness between Prefontaine and the Olympics. If Hocker can make that same jump in 2025, he is going to be a beast come Tokyo. *Jonathan Gault thinks the US 1500 team will be Hocker - Nuguse - Kessler. Do you agree?

An American man hasn't held the mile world record in over 50 years. Might that change on Saturday in Eugene?  Nuguse's coach Dathan Ritzenhein: "It won’t shock me if they break [the world record]."

• An American man hasn't held the mile WR in 50+ years, might that change at the 50th Pre? Ritz: "It won’t shock me."
• Pre Classic - Will Grant Fisher finish DFL in Bowerman mile?

Olympic 1500 medalists Cole Hocker, Josh Kerr, and Yared Nuguse will face  each other and Olympic 800 medalists Emmanuel Wanyonyi & Marco Arop and American record holder Bryce Hoppel twice in the span of less than 24 hours.

In the span of one week in February, runners broke five world indoor records and every American men's middle-distance record from 800m to 5000m. We spoke to some of America's top athletes and coaches to find the reasons behind all of the fast times.

Grant Fisher and Yared Nuguse are world record holders as Cole Hocker and Hobbs Kessler also ran faster than anyone else ever at their events indoors at a spectacular Millrose Games where Josh Hoey set an American record. We try and make sense of it all.

The men's mile and 3k both feature marquee showdowns between Olympic medalists and the world record(s) could be under threat. Plus Bryce Hoppel v Josh Hoey in the 800, Quincy Wilson v Will Sumner v Brandon Miller in the 600, and Katelyn Tuohy in the 3000.

Hocker and Fisher talk to LRC before their epic 3000 showdown while Kerr and Nuguse do the same before their mile showdown.

From novice fans to running diehards, there was something for everyone (except perhaps Brits and Norwegians) to enjoy about one of the greatest middle distance races ever run.

We'll get Ingebrigtsen v Hocker v Nuguse in the 1500 for the last time in 2024. Plus what to make of Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone's 200/400 double.

Yared Nuguse passed Jakob Ingebrigtsen late to win the 1500 in 3:29.21 as Sha’Carri Richardson (10.84) topped Olympic champ Julien Alfred (10.88) in the 100 and Grant Holloway broke 13 in the 110 hurdles for the 12th time.

A product engineer at HOKA took down UTMB over the weekend, Addy Wiley broke the American 1000m record, and this is the year of the women's 1500.

This meet is incredible. A Paris 100m rematdch between Sha'Carri and Julien Alfred. Ingebrigtsen v Hocker v Kerr v Nuguse should make for a memorable 1500, while Beatrice Chebet looks to finish off arguably the greatest women's distance season ever - World xc gold, Olympic 5 and 10,000 gold and world records at 5000 and 10,000, breaking 14:00 and 30:00 in both.
