Thanks for joining us long.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
I appreciate it, man, I appreciate it. Chad, what's up? O? Choe?
What's up? Baby? Man?

Speaker 5 (04:34):
Everything good? I'm still waiting to race you. I remember,
I've been waiting by I've been waiting bout ten fifteen years. Now.

Speaker 6 (04:39):
We're gonna put them spikes on.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
But for you know what. First of all, I was
trying to add added to my stats.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
I was trying to get down to say, hey, beat
Chad Oto Sinko in the street race.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
But my package an't come.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
I hit the button that said thirty days on Amazon
and said overnight.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
So I didn't get my spikes yet. So we gonna wait.

Speaker 6 (04:55):
Oh oh, okay, okay, we're gona beat that popping though.
Yes sir, yes, sir.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Justin, let's jump right into it. In the women's one
hundred meter final, this wasn't upset. She was the overwhelming
Ferry favorite. Although Julian Alfred has been running well all year,
she's been in her bag all year. So let's not
just make it seem like she just came on the scene.
She's an NCAA champ, she's a medalist on the world stage.
She can run, and she put the race together of

(05:23):
her life. She got out of the block and to
Carrie couldn't chase her down. It seems like to me
that Sha Carrie she was not herself. She wasn't a
jubilant she wasn't playing around like she normally was. When
you watch this race and you break it down from
your professional standpoint, what besides Julian Alfred running, Well, what

(05:45):
do you think happened to Sha Carrie in this race?

Speaker 4 (05:48):
Well?

Speaker 1 (05:48):
You know, I think Sha Carrie is known to be
a fighter, right, That's how she's made her mark in
the sport.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
She's fought the world.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
We know it because you can see it in her
races when she comes across that line, you know what
I mean. So watching her run, she didn't show that
I think in the semis and the finals.

Speaker 4 (06:06):
But once again, just like in the Super Bowl, when
you get to the.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
Olympic line, everything that you think of that you when
you was a little kid about being an Olympic medalist
or going to the super Bowl, and so flashbacks to
come to you.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
That moment is here.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
Now, it's a heavy moment that you have to put
on your back when that gun goes off. So I
think at the end of the day, sometimes that moment
gets bigger than you and the preparation you just got
to put to the side and say everything that got
me to this point, I'm gonna do it again.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
Go ahead, o Joe.

Speaker 5 (06:35):
I mean, I think, I think all she Curry has
to do, She's been phenomenal all year.

Speaker 6 (06:41):
She's been phenomenal all year. Obviously, she did win silver.
And there's one thing. I'm not a track runner.

Speaker 5 (06:46):
I'm not a track star, but I am familiar with
what track runners with athletes.

Speaker 4 (06:51):
I have one.

Speaker 6 (06:51):
Now you know, my daughter's here, she's at University Kentucky.
If we can help my baby, if we can help
my baby with.

Speaker 5 (06:57):
Her start, just get it better, Just get a faster start,
Just get it her start turning over a little faster.

Speaker 6 (07:01):
Because the second the back half of the race, she's good.
She's good.

Speaker 5 (07:06):
And other other than that, I have I have nothing
bad to say. I'm happy, I'm happy she gets she
won silver, and I'm excited I'm excited.

Speaker 4 (07:12):
I don't think that was a Sha carry that we
know showed up today.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
And that's nothing against SHA carry, because I think that
if the shake carry we know that showed up to
Olympic trials would have handle business today, that would have
been that would have been a very close race and
a very competitive race today.

Speaker 5 (07:26):
Hey, Justin and I I have a question with someone
as good as that. I'm sure obviously, whenever you race,
especially on.

Speaker 6 (07:34):
A stage this big, do you.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
As a runner, as a competitor, do you still consider
it a bad thing?

Speaker 6 (07:42):
Coming in second? Is it?

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Is?

Speaker 4 (07:44):
That?

Speaker 6 (07:44):
Is that?

Speaker 4 (07:45):
I mean?

Speaker 5 (07:45):
How do you guys view it as Olympic sprinters not winning.

Speaker 6 (07:48):
Gold but still but still placing You know really well.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
I mean when you look at the point of how
you trained all year, you've become the favorite, and you've
worked so hard to make sure you want to obtain
that goal. Yes, it's a little hurt in your heart,
you know what I mean, because your focus is to
get that goal. That's what you're here for. You the
favorite going into the finals. You the favorite going into
the Olympics. So everyone's already saying that it's yours to louse.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
That's what you want.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
But at the if you're looking at it from like
fifty thousand feet up, when you look at yourself a
seven point nine billion people in the world, you get
in that second place. It's still an accomplishment, you know
what I mean, Especially for if you have a young career,
you have.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
A long career.

Speaker 6 (08:25):
Nay, so yeah, long way.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
I don't think that she should walk away feeling with
her head hanging down. Is the fact that it's motivation
going into the World Championships and her getting ready for
the next Olympics when it comes.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
Oh yeah, but this is what we've talked about.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
We should carry all along, even when you carry before
what transpired in twenty twenty one, we always question the starts.
We know at this level. This is not high school,
this is not the collegiate level. Justin you are not
going to consistently run down these men and women if
you get left in the blocks.

Speaker 4 (08:57):
They're just too talented. Talented.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
You can't spot a great. You can't spot women and
men that are the equivalent of you two meters and
think you're gonna chase them down. The reason why Boat
got so good, because great is because he worked on
that start and once he could get out the blocks
even with you. Once he got the fifty meters and
he stood up, it was over.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
Should Carry has a top end like you.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Gotta go back to Flow Joe to find a female
that has a top end like should Carry.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
But she's giving up too much.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
Ground in the beginning of the race justin and she
can't chase these women down consistently.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
So my coach when I when I was competing, is
actually her coach. And my coach always said, Jennis Mitchell
said nine to seven, don't catch nine to seven. So
you can't give a deficit to an individual that is
your equal out there. When you compete in the cast,
you gotta make sure that you go through your checks
and balances before that race, and when that gun goes off,
anything that is what you gotta hit, which is your

(09:56):
strong suit. You gotta capitalize on your strong suit. Her
strong suit is that second half. She has to be
in striking distance of the Julian Alpha. Because Julian Alford
is strong, she gonna push to that line and that's
what she did tonight. She got in front and she
did not relinquish that lead. For s Carrie sh Carrie
had to give like you said earlier with Usain Voat,

(10:17):
have a good start.

Speaker 4 (10:18):
You ain't got to be in front the field.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
We know that when the light goes on and you
hit that fifty meter mark, she Carrie wakes up and
we see what she can do when she wakes up.
So the fact is now, then lift the gold of
somewhere else. Let that be motivation for her to be
able to come back and do something bigger and better.

Speaker 4 (10:34):
We need to see a ten to five. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
The thing justin is that we look at her in
the trials. She ran ten seventy one. She ran she
ran high ten eighties. Do you people, I don't know
if people understand how slow Now we're not talking about
the world. When she ran ten sixty five, which is
probably one of the four or five fastest time ever
run by woman. She ran ten seventy one at the

(10:58):
Trials and it wasn't closed today. She ran ten eight
high ten eighties. That's not she carry shea KaiA can
run ten eight to oh in her sleep. But but
I believe the moment, the pressure, the expectations came along
and all of a sudden, she was she was She
was steal in the Blox, I'm like, she not catching

(11:21):
Once I saw the way that the way Julian Africk got.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Out, I said, Shaki is not catching her. Not today,
Not today.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
She'd have had to run ten sixty I don't know
if she could have called her, she'd run ten sixty
five with the start that she got today. Justin and
then listen, and what we're trying to do. We're trying
to analyze and go through the steps the cadence of
what a world class runner, male or female go through.
And what Justin said, what I'm trying to say is
that look he said it. Dennis Mitchell said, if you

(11:49):
run nine seven and I run nine seven.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
And I get you out the gate, you not catching me.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
It's just like a race car if we both got
eight hundred horsepower and I'll get you off the line.
On Joe, you care to me if I got eight
hundred horse powers, you've got eight hundred horse power and
with the equivalent drivers.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
So she had to hit that mark. She needed to
be with Alfred.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
And then when we got to fifty, now let's see
my top end have already was even with your back
with your run in, and now let's see who.

Speaker 4 (12:19):
Can get to the last fifty meters and but I
go ahead.

Speaker 5 (12:23):
Yeah, I always thought about someone when I think about racing. Obviously,
I don't know track like that, justin. You can correct
me if I'm wrong. I think there may be two phases,
maybe three different phases in track. Obviously there's a start
that's one phase I would assume. Then you have your
drive phase, you know which I'm assuming you driving out
to get out, and then I'm not sure what the
third phase might get called your transition. Being able to

(12:45):
hold that phase as long as possible, I'm assuming your strength.
You don't actually turn over and get faster, You're just
able to maintain that top end speed longer than everybody else.
So when it comes to racers, there's a bunch of
receivers in the NFL. Everybody can, but they all get
open a different way. So are there runners.

Speaker 6 (13:03):
Or is it?

Speaker 5 (13:04):
Is it crazy to say that each runner has a
different strength and nobody will have all three phases and
be really really good at all three phases.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
Justin, That's the one thing I love about running one
hundred meters. Man.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
All three of us are built different, we have different
we have different attributes. We've being to the table, but
all three of us could run sub ten. That's what
you're looking at when you looking at those women when
they get to the line, and the men, it's the
fact that there's some are some are tall, some are short,
some stocky, some skinny, but the fact that they all
can go.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
I think you have to play on what your strengths are,
but you have to mask and protect what your weaknesses are.
And her in that situation is all right, we know
you're not the best starter in the world. But the
fact is, it's saying, like you said, you got to
make sure that you get out you are striking distance,
and you got to get to what you are good at,
which is your top end speed. You have your start,
you have your drive phase, you have your transition, you

(13:56):
have your top end speed, and you finish.

Speaker 4 (13:58):
That's what it is.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
It's so five phases, and she's good at four of
those five.

Speaker 4 (14:02):
You see what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Once she gets going, it's a rap and we seed it,
especially through that through that prelims.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
If you watch her pre limbs.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Them wheels were spinning when she's coming through that line,
and she only caught ten nine and she was just spinning,
so you noticed she had a lot left in the tank.

Speaker 4 (14:17):
And the confidence was there as well.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Going into that finals and that Semis, it was a
whole different ball game when you line up next to
somebody that you know that can be a possible threat.
You know what I'm saying now, you start second guessing
exactly in those moments when you're running Olympic finals. There
are no fourth quarters, they ain no two halves. You
only get ten seconds for them females, You don't get
nine seconds for them men. You ain't got time to think.

(14:40):
It's all instinctual. You gotta react like a savage. You
got to get out there and.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
Just go yeah, I agree with you, justin I'm not
for sure. I'm not saying that she ought your Remember
you and I was talking justin How fair would it
be if Usain Boat had Christian Coleman start or had
your start? It wouldn't be four fair? He runs some
nine four if he had a start like that, with
a top with a like what he has. But the

(15:08):
thing is, as runners out, Joe, Once you get to
a certain point, it's not about speeding up.

Speaker 4 (15:12):
It's about the profit. When you start to decelerate.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
His deceleration is so much slower than everyone else's deceleration,
and so.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
That's why it looks like he's speeding up. He's not.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
It's just everybody, everybody going down a lot faster what
he is, and I believe should carry. She didn't need
to be second out of the block, but she couldn't
be dead last out of the block, And I think
that was the difference in the race, because you get
somebody like Julia Laffert, who's a strong runner, who can
start exceptionally well. If you spot her that much distance.

(15:45):
I'm not saying you need to be second out of
the block, but if you dad last and give up
that much separation, you're not catching.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
You not catching, And it's the same thing, but you're
about to give me some nightmares. Man. If you saying
bowl had a Christian Coleman start and a You.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Sain finish, I probably have to take up for a
whole of the career.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
Brother.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
But at the end of the day, when you look
at Julian Outford and giving her praise, yes, her track
record speaks for it. She's a two time NC double
champion one hundred and two, one hundred.

Speaker 4 (16:15):
And the two hundred.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Correct, she is the indoor world champion just of this year,
and then she went into the final. There's one of
the fastest times of the season. So she knows how
to get it done in championship environments. So she and
that kind of person that's sitting there hoping that she
gets on a podium, She's coming to get to the
top of that podium.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
That's what she's built. Like. Can I ask you this,
what do you think?

Speaker 2 (16:38):
Because if you look at a lot of these a
lot of these runners should carry did not run after
the trials. Julian and Afford ran, no Allow ran, Rob
Benjamin ran, Christian Warholme ran, Alison Dos Santos ran them
Cabo ran how much because that's like a six week
law in between, when you're ear to all of a

(17:01):
sudden trying to ramp it back up in six weeks.
Do you believe that played a role?

Speaker 4 (17:09):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
I don't necessarily think so, only because I came from
that same coaching system.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
I know Dennis is going to get you ready.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
He knows what he knows what's at state, and we
trained extremely hard right to the point where it did
give you nightmares when I retired. My body felt better
retired than it did when I was in the game
of play, you know what I'm saying. So we worked hard, man,
So I know that she was working hard, and that
moment meant everything, not only to her, but a whole
training group. It meant and to her whole circle, her coaching,

(17:37):
her agency. They knew that this moment was there for them.
So I think that she was prepared physically for that moment.
It's just the fact that the moment was very big. Yeah,
the moment was very big.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
In that moment, this was a very seismic moment for
the small Caribbean island of saying Lusha with a population
of under two hundred thousand. Julian Alfred just went rount
won the nation's first ever Olympic medal and its goal.
Her time of ten seventy two is a Saint Lucian
national record that puts her in the top ten all time.

(18:07):
The margin of victory the zero point one point five
the biggest winning margin in the women's one hundred meter
Olympic final since Shelley and Fraser Price won in Beijing
in two thousand and eight. That's how dominant, what Julian
Alfred just did let that seek in the biggest margin
of victory in sixteen years. We know, sha, as far

(18:31):
as women started, ain't nobody had a start like the
BOMBI Rocket, shelle Anne, Fraser Price. But here's the thing.
In order for you to beat Shelle Anne. For Elaine Thompson, Herra,
she had to be close because she got that flow
Joe closing speed. She said, if I can just be closed,
I know at fifty meters, if I'm close, I'm gonna

(18:52):
come get you, right. But if you're not close, and hey,
look a lot of those Jamaican women can get out
the gate on you. I mean, we forget about Veronica
Camber Brown, We forget about.

Speaker 4 (19:04):
Stewart, uh Ron, Stuart Start seven.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Yep, Stuart Stewart, the Jamaican lady for Stuart All obviously,
Marley Oddi, Julie All.

Speaker 4 (19:14):
I mean, Jamaica has female sprinters.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
I mean, we just know about over the last sight
decade when you talk about Shelley and Fraser, and we
talked about Marley and ODDI and we talked, we talk
about some of the ones that we know.

Speaker 4 (19:27):
Cherika Jackson.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Cherika Jackson started as a four hundred meter runner, won
the bronze medal, dropped down and now here she is
one of the fastest women in the world, the fastest,
ran the second fastest time ever at the World's last
year forty one starting the challenge in flow. Joe's record,
I think her record is what twenty one thirty three,
twenty one thirty four. I think it's something like that.

(19:50):
So we we know what the Jamaican women can do.
But give give Julian Alfred Juju. She put on the
show today and you watch the watch party, justin and
you see the way that nation. Man, you thought you
were at a local bar and that was the hometown

(20:10):
team playing in the Super bowls oh Joe or the
NBA Final.

Speaker 4 (20:14):
The nation got behind that young lady o Joe Shannon.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
I'm gonna tell you right now, like watching watching her win,
and and how many people are in her country over
two hundred thousand talking about seven point nine billion people
in the world, you understand. And when she goes home
to train, everyone in the country line up on the
fence just to watch her do drills, a skips and

(20:41):
beast skips, just to watch her train.

Speaker 4 (20:43):
They'd have so much love for her.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
She's she is one of those generational athletes that's going
to help the next generation of female sprinters and male sprinters.
We have confidence to say, I'm from a small island.
I can get the job done too.

Speaker 6 (20:58):
I've done yeah.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
Uh uh.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
They're the video surface and Shelley Anne Fraser Price this
is her last Olympics.

Speaker 4 (21:05):
She let it be known, this is my last Olympic that.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
I guess what's transpiring justin If you don't ride the
team bus, people are having issues getting in and it
seems like shir Carrie had that issue and Shelley and
Fraser Price had the issue getting to the warm up area. Uh.
And I guess when she got there late she ended
up tweaking a hamstring. I'm not really sure. You're in

(21:30):
Paris justin? What if you heard was the run of
the the reason or one of the reasons why Shelley
Anne pulled out of this ruce knowing it's her last,
her last.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
First of all, it started off that she had hamstring issues,
and then it started up that she.

Speaker 4 (21:42):
Wasn't let it into the warmp area.

Speaker 1 (21:44):
Now hearing that it's a she had to ride the
bus to be able to get into the into the
warm uth area.

Speaker 4 (21:50):
To me, Bro, It's just it's just ludicrous.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
First of all, in our sport, when you are a star,
you come in with a private car because you dial there.

Speaker 4 (21:59):
You focused to get on that bus.

Speaker 1 (22:01):
Sometimes that bus gets overpacked there, you know, seats left,
you got to sit on the floor.

Speaker 4 (22:05):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
Just to get to ride for twenty thirty minutes on
a bus where there ain't no air conditioning, and to
get to the stadium. Yes, it's a humbling experience. But
where you are poised to win, or you have one
Olympic gold, there should be a different level of preparation
for you.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
We know that you can get the job done.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
There's no reason why she should not have been let
into the warm up area to get ready for her
last one hundred meters that we ever gonna see. I
feel like that was a shame to the fact of
altering her preparation and the legend that Mommy Rocket is.
Now we're going to look back at those channels on
the internet and see that vacant lane lane five and

(22:46):
there's no Mommy Rocket there. I feel like that that
hurt my heart, knowing that such a legend and your
legends in your own right. Imagine that they call your
name out to come out on the fielding and you
don't show up because you couldn't get what you need
to get done.

Speaker 4 (22:59):
No Olympics, she do it. We couldn't get into that.
You couldn't get into the damn stadium.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
The Olympics shouldn't should oblige those ones that we know
that are gunning for the Olympic title, because that's gonna
make that's gonna make a better show for everybody.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Right, Oh, Joe War Anti Clive Magic, the US four
by four m mixed reelay yesterday, Dwayne Deadman, Vernond Norwood,
uh Shamil Little and Brown, I forget Brown's first name.

(23:39):
They set the Olympic. They set the world record in
the four high four mixed relay. Okay today the Dutch
team anchored by the legendary Famica Bold and a sub
forty eight Yeah clothing split you ran forty seven ninety
three and she tracked down the American to snatch gold.

Speaker 6 (24:00):
Go yeah, I saw that, justin saw that.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
Was it a mistake not to have Quincy Wilson because
you took him over there and I don't get it now.
He's run in the rounds at the Trials, he ran
sub forty five all three rounds.

Speaker 4 (24:16):
His last meet. I think it was the.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Edwind No, it was maybe the Edward Moses or uh
the one in Florida with what's the guy the HRD
Mike Halloway Holloway Grand Holloway Holloway Classic. He ran forty
four to twenty, which is one of the fastest times
in the world this year. Why you said, well, he
doesn't have he doesn't have world experience. Well, how the

(24:39):
hell are you gonna get it if you don't take it,
If you take him cross the water, don't let him run.
So what you think what did you think was gonna happen?
Justin if you let the kid run, he's gonna all
of a sudden blow up and run a fifty. I
don't think that's gonna happen. So what do you think
happened in the mixed relays other than fifthkenbol running that
legendary anchor lady.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
So sources are saying that the Quincy Wilson injured you
know what I'm saying, while he was at practice for
the relay.

Speaker 4 (25:03):
So if that's the case, I hope he gets well soon.
He's had an amazing season.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
First of all, he's pr four times this season as
a sixty year old. He ran a whole youth season.
Then he went to big boy trials, you know what
I mean. He went out there to Olympic Trials, handled
his business Olympic Trials, made the relay team, and then
he went overseas to run races as well. So he
dropped that forty four twenty, which makes him the third

(25:28):
fastest American this season, and he ran stride for stride,
but one of the fastest Americans this whole season to
be able to get that forty four to twenty, and
that means he's about the top five fastest times of
the year throughout the world, you understand. So, yeah, maybe
his leg's a little tired, But if he wasn't injured,
there was no reason why you don't use this young
athlete on the team. That gives other opportunity to be

(25:51):
able to rest the athletes that are critical in your finals. Right,
So if you rested Bryce Deadman for the prelim, you
put Quincy Wilson in there, He's gonna show out and
you're not gonna have a real, look at what the finals.
Team USA is going to do in the finals. Now
you're kind of leaving everybody or guessing what they look like.
They broke the world record, which is bittersweet because they
broke the world record at third three premium three minutes

(26:15):
seven seconds and three minutes seven and forty forty one seconds.

Speaker 4 (26:21):
Was the world record they smashed right to win.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
The gold was three minutes, seven seconds point forty three,
So literally just a couple of hundreds of seconds away
from breaking that world record or they could have got
that Olympic gold.

Speaker 4 (26:37):
And that's the difference. Yep.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
Look justin you you ran you, You had a fifteen
year career at that level.

Speaker 4 (26:45):
You was running sub damn there.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
You and Kim Collins might be the only tu that's
ever run sub sub tea then forty years of age,
so you know the margins of victory. It's not like
high school. You're not finna be blowing these people out
of the water. These people can run. And look, I
get it, like when you're running, you in the moment
and they stayed on the gas. The anchor leg I

(27:08):
was listening to Richard Ross, She's like, she's still on
the gas. I thought she would back off and save
some in the tank. There was no reason to break
the world record. Because you break the world record in
the prelims and you don't.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
Get gold, people are gonna be scratching your head.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
Was like, damn, did you leave some of that on
the track the day before? We oh tell you know,
we're talking like, hey, save some of them catches for
next week, or save some of those baskets for next week.
Don't use them all up right now. So if you're
the coach of that team, what would you have said,
what would have been your strategy justin going into a
week A let's just win to make sure we qualify.

(27:48):
We don't we're not out for a world record. We
just want to make sure we qualify and then let's
drop the hammer in the finals.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
I think right now, it's kind of what the same
thing is going on with the mess basketball.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
The world's catching up to you. The world catching up
to you.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
You have a lot of international athletes who come to
America to get trained by American coaches at American institutes,
so they're understanding the ideology that we have when it
comes to competing at a high level.

Speaker 4 (28:10):
Right But the thing is happening now.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
Is the fact of as if I was that relay coach,
I would say, go out there, qualify, that's all we
need to do. Qualify, get to that get to that finals.
Then you let loose, get that goal and that world record.
Then you gonna catch everybody off guard. But now the
fact of they gave Fimketball and Team Netherlands a look,
you guys running three minutes and seven seconds. Okay, cool,

(28:33):
We're gonna be ready for that when it comes to
the finals. They came out with the same quartet, so
they knew exactly what that order was gonna be.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
They knew exactly how they were gonna run.

Speaker 6 (28:41):
And of the and of the.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
Fact of you've been in broke.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
We have a little technical difficulties with Justin's Mike. He
is in Paris later, so forgive us. And it's the
wee hours of the morning, so we greatly greatly appreciate
just taking time out of his busy schedule, staying up
night late night with us to break down these races.
I agree with you, but Harr's the difference is is
that you see they brought fimcam. Now is that forty

(29:14):
seven ninety gonna take something out of her legs for
the four hundred, because you know, seeing Sid wants to
be She's thought of right now as the greatest four
hundred meter a female woman's hurdler in the history. There's
something to be said about a two time Olympic chair
because for me, justin I believe this will be a
last four hundred. I believe Bobby and her will focus

(29:36):
on the open four hundred. It to make her the greater,
the greatest middle distance sprinter in the history.

Speaker 4 (29:42):
If she can win a goal, win two goals in.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
The Olympics and the four hundred hurdles and the world
and then turn around and in the World Championship win
the four hundred gold sitting up for twenty twenty eight
to win the four hundred, it ain't even close.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
At the end of the day.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
You got to look at what fimkabos bil fimber Cabal
is building a campaign to show how great she is. Yes,
Sydney's chasing history. Filmic cabal is chasing Sydney to history.
But what's gonna happen is Sydney can't make no mistakes
in her race.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
She can't hit.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
Or hurdle she can't stutter step film caball is gonna
be right there in that picture frame with accounts. Do
I think that that running that forty four to seven,
to run that forty seven in that mixed relays is
going to tax filmkeball.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
No, she's trained for that this whole season.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
She could running mixed relays from the World Relays all
the way through to now, so her body's ready for that.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
It's used to it.

Speaker 5 (30:36):
M Hey, you know when I think, when I think
about it, they set the world record and then you
come back and to gas out on the last You know,
I'm assuming gas that. You know that that monkey jump
on your back which allowed the Netherlands or Hollering for
that matter, to close the gaps when we weren't able
to where we weren't.

Speaker 6 (30:55):
Able to win goal.

Speaker 5 (30:58):
Is there any other methods that you guys go through
in preparation for after running a race like that to
kind of recover a little bit faster outside of cold
tub ice tub massages. Is there anything else you guys
can do to kind of refresh your legs after an
event like that.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
Not necessarily, we do have the state of our trainers
that come with us, you know, for a team for
Team USA. So everyone's on deck making sure these athletes
are ready for the next next event or the next
round for the finals. So I think they're gonna be
in great hands when you look at somebody like Filkeball,
she ran from fourth place to first place.

Speaker 4 (31:34):
That's hard to do it, ready, if you already in lead.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
Team USA was already in lead by a margin, So
for her to run people down one by one to
get to the front, what do you do. The only
thing you can do is you got to go into
your arsenal and get a bigger doune. You gotta go
get someone like tap City on the shoulder and say, City,
we need you for this mixed relay. We got to
see what we can do, because now that's the only
thing you really can do.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Mm hmm, okay, yeah, it's gonna be be very interesting
the women's four by four, because you know Sydney normally
runs like second or third leg. They might save see
it for the anchor leg, just in case it comes
down to Filmica and this thing's closed. Now that's what
I want to see. I want to see. I believe,
I believe if fim Cabol has anything less than a

(32:19):
five meter lead.

Speaker 4 (32:20):
See it the go get her.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
I've seen Seid run open four forty eight to seventy
five and not be pushed. I've seen a run twenty
two point zero seven and really not be pushed. I
believe she can go. She might be the first since
Metalin of Coat in eighty five to go below forty eight.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
Justin Well, first of all, you making my appetite for
a competition kind of like spark right now, doc to
watch Sydney run down film Cabal in the finals of
the of the women's four by four with five me
if with five me the game boy, that is going
to be amazing to watch.

Speaker 4 (32:52):
Man give it two. Five might be too much. Five
might be too much.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Because but here's the thing we've seen when people are
prop clussier to filmka.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
We saw in the World Championship.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
We saw when the girl put that pressure and started
to ease up on him. We saw it tied up.
You see, it's either to run from behind that is
the front.

Speaker 4 (33:11):
Justine.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
You know this because you get to relax now all
of a sudden, because if she doesn't come back, ain't
nobody saying nothing. Everybody said, well, man, look how far
she had to come from. But when you in the
front and you feel that pressure and that crowd, and
they start standing and they start chomping at the bit,

(33:33):
and you hear that crowd. You don't even if you
don't look at the board, justin you hear it. You
know it, you can feel it. Now all of a sudden,
you're like, damn, my ham streets started to oo. Now
you start running straight up, you start looking like Michael Johnson.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Running and see it come absolutely, boy, if they come
over the hood, whoop in Paris the an Olympics.

Speaker 4 (33:53):
Boy, I'm gonna come out of a timing. Boy. That's
that's it. The table.

Speaker 6 (34:00):
To be dope.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
We look at Ryan Krauser three times. He's the first
man in history to win three consecutive shot put the
shot win the shot put three consecutive Olympics with three
gold medal in the Olympics. He's put it away on
his first throw. I think he went twenty two to
sixty four meters and then he finished it off with
a twenty two point nine zero meters not quite as

(34:22):
world record, but he put it away early.

Speaker 4 (34:25):
So what Ryan Krauser likes to do, he likes to
get that big throw first, come catch him.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
If you catch him, if you can, absolutely, that's gonna
pu pressure on the rest of the competition. If I
put that big throw out there, then you ain't focus
on how you your technique is. You ain't focus on
what you and your coach have been working on all year.
You're trying to go get that gold medal. You're trying
to get that mark. And at the end of the day, Hey,
that many people in the world has ever thrown that
far before except for Ryan Krause. So now your whole
game plan is all off tilt, now you know what

(34:52):
I mean. So he knows what he's doing and he's
doing it over and over and over again. The point
is he needs to go ahead and clone himself so
he can have some competition because right now he's running
away with it.

Speaker 2 (35:05):
Yeah, only Big Joe can consistently. And this is the
third straight Olympic that the Americans have gone one two
in the shot put. Ryan Krauser's won the last three,
Joe Kovacs has been won the silver medal. Joe's like, man,
I don't know what the hell like, I don't know
what I can do because we know at any given

(35:25):
moment Ryan Krauzer can unload a world record, a mythical
world record that we thought. I remember, I'm old enough
to remember, justin when Randy Barnes through that world record,
I think seventy five ten back at eighty eight, and
I was like.

Speaker 4 (35:38):
Ain't nobody ever gonna break that record?

Speaker 2 (35:40):
And here in lor and behold we get a six
foot five Orgonian over three hundred pounds and he's seventy six,
and I mean he obliterated the record. It wasn't a
couple of feet, you know. I think Timmerman had the
record before Randy Barnes broke it. But he's just he's,
like you said, he's in a class by himself right
now throwing that sixteen pound metal ball.

Speaker 4 (36:02):
List you as.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
You come across athlete, you come across athlete like Ryan
Sidney or are you saying they just say do your best,
do your best?

Speaker 2 (36:16):
Let mask give us your preliminary what you think, what
you think is gonna happen in the one hundred meters.
We got the men, we got no allows, we got
Cashane Thompson, we got over laque Seville h We've got
Kenny Banerik, we got Fred clerk curly. We got the
the Italian that won the I forget his name, Marcelle Jacobs,

(36:37):
justin Marcel Jacobs who ran nine eight Ryan nine eighty,
but he has not been in that form since he's
been nicked all the way.

Speaker 4 (36:46):
You got to me.

Speaker 2 (36:49):
So you've got some guys that are right there, but
seems to be the overwhelming favorite. It's Kase Shane Thompson,
since he laid down that nine to seventy seven. No
allows did run an which is a lifetime best. Again,
he's not the best starter. The two hundred meters is
his best race because it gives them a chance to
build up.

Speaker 4 (37:08):
But it ain't no building up in one hundred meters, No,
not at all.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
I think what's gonna happen in this situation is Keyshane
is right now is the favorite, right on paper for sure.
When you watch him race and you watch him go
through the rounds, I mean you go through his practices
and you see the videos, he looks like a rocket
coming out the blocks, he looks strong, and watching him
run that nine to seven and shutting it down at
the Jamaican Trials look gave me. It gave me nightmares
and I'm retired, you know what I mean. So when

(37:35):
you watching, when you watch an individual like that, the
only thing you can do is you got to turn
it into a foot race.

Speaker 4 (37:40):
Noah Llows got to turn into a foot race.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
Fred Curley and the rest of the guys, they got
to meet him at the fifty five meter mark when
he goes and tries to take off. You gotta go
stride for stride with an individual like that because someone
like him, he doesn't need to run through the line.
He shuts it down before he gets to the line.
Show him something different, Go stride for stride with him
for the last to twenty meters and see exactly what
he's made of. That's what you only gonna get on

(38:04):
top of that podium if you run strivee for try
to make him dot die for that line. That's where
you're gonna see a different key shame. But you gotta
go and you gotta surprise him. You got to go
stride for try with half of the half of the
race to go.

Speaker 5 (38:17):
And the funny thing about that, when you when you
mentioned that being able to go strive for stride, that
means you got to get out with him too. So
your footspeed, your turnover, your transition at the at the
very beginning has to be that much better, that much
faster than what you used to running. And then when
you when you when you factor in the pressure situation
because of who you're running with, the nervousness, the butterflies.
Obviously I've never been in that position, but I'm thinking

(38:38):
about the nervousness when it would just tire me just
to play a regular game on Sunday. So I could
imagine in Paris at the Olympics, you know, represent your country.
It got to be not the worst feeling, but such
an adrilling rush where you want to perfect all the
work you put in for the last four years to
a t and refer it to a science and the

(39:00):
fact that you have someone that's ran nine seven and
that's in the back of your mind. It has to be.
It has to be, and I'm excited. I'm excited to
see it and hopefully you really there's nothing. It's not
like magic. You can't just change your routine, you can't
change your technique. It just like you said, you got
to show him something different.

Speaker 4 (39:20):
Well, I'm gonna make sure that.

Speaker 6 (39:21):
I'm hoping we can do it. I'm hoping.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
I think we have a good shot at you know
those guys.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
When you look at Fred Curley, you know he's built
with a lot of grit. He loves, he loves to
be able to have that adversity, you know what I'm saying,
to go through. And when you look at someone like
no Allows, he's a showman. He's kind of like a
usane boat when the pressure is on and lights turn on,
I'm I'm gonna give it my book, I'm gonna show
up and I'm ana show out. So I think tam
Usa has an arsenal to go out there and upset
you know what I'm saying, Keyshane. But Keishane is the enigma.

(39:49):
No one's ever seen him in the championship. No one's
ever seen him. No one hasn't really raced against them either.
So now it's a whole new look. So when that
gun goes off, your heart gonna be beating very fast
because this is somebody you never race against. You never
had an opportunity to watch film on really, so you
got to go out there and just run light pole
to light pole like back in the day.

Speaker 4 (40:11):
I like that. I think you said something very interesting justin.
I remember my coach.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
I was running the I was running third leg of
the four hundred meters in the relay, and the guy
he ran to open four and he had done got out,
and you know, cause you know.

Speaker 4 (40:31):
Back then we could switch the stagger.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
It was like, okay, you pisciling to run the third leg,
the second leg, acre leg. We was moving people around,
according so coach say, hey, coach wished just around. I
was supposed to be the anchor because it was gonna
be too far ahead, and so he told me to
go to third leg. And so I was like, coach,
what you want me to do? He said, sucker, you
got to put him to the tab, make him run,

(40:55):
make him run the entire don't let him relax.

Speaker 4 (40:58):
So what I.

Speaker 2 (40:59):
Did is is that I ran and I pulled up
beside it. So now he got to go. He's got
to run faster than he thought he was gonna have
to run. But I said, oh, it's something told me.
I said, I'm gonna stay here as long as I
can because I want to see how I can be
uncomfortable longer than you can, bro but because I know
what I've done.

Speaker 4 (41:19):
But we're gonna see when we got to that. When
we turned got into the curve.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
I say I should go. I said, no, I'm gonna
sit right here. I ha, hey, I'm gonna sit right
here on him because he know I was there. He
kept looking, he kept kept glancing. Once I saw him
glance that last time, I said, I got it. When
we pulled out, you hit it. We had that.

Speaker 4 (41:37):
Last eight I looked at him.

Speaker 2 (41:40):
I put the batar, I put ay. I put the
baton in his face. I told you, and I turned
it over to the anchor leg and we brought it home.
But that's the thing, what you're saying about what they're
gonna have to do to Kashin. You gotta put him
to the test. If you let him be Scott three
and fifty meterings, you're not gonna be able to touch it.

(42:02):
You gotta make him run those first fifty meters because
Noah had the top end speed that if I'm with
you for fifty meters or I'm a step behind you
at fifty, I can bring it home.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
Absolutely yea. And that's what it's gonna take. It's gonna
take that grit, you know what I mean. You gotta
put up. You gotta put question in his mind or
doubt in his mind when you strive for strial and
he be like, oh, man, I ain't running nine seven.
I must be running nine to nine or something like that,
because you right next to me, but in reality you
are running nine seven. But I am too, because I'm
with you.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
Right tobogo the books wanting he's run he's what he
hasn't he run like nine eight? He's run nine eight
this year nine He's a legit. There's a Kenyon that's
run nine to seven nine. So there have been some
There are a couple of guys that are in the
one hundred meters field justin that's run a faster time

(42:51):
than Noah's lifetime best. Kashane nine seven seven, the guy
I forget, the guy from from Kenya. He yes, yes,
So there are some guys in there. So but here's
the thing, and you know this. Every Olympic we saw

(43:12):
uh a softa power come to the line with the
fastest time in the world leading into the Olympics, and
every time he ain't getting on the podium. So just
because you got the fastest time over there in Paris
or the Diamond League or whatever the case may be,
your trials. Can you run that time when it matters? Oh,

(43:34):
you remember the mark of any great office or defense.
Can you do what you need to get done when
you have to get it done well? Can you run
nine seven an Olympic final? Can you run nine seven
nine an Olympic? If you can't, that's gonna be the
difference in the ball game, Justine.

Speaker 4 (43:53):
Absolutely.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
When you think about these countries like Jamaica, those athletes
carry a lot of pride. But also what comes with
that pride is because they putting that whole country on
their back. Yes, so you know you got it. That's
what you gotta play Kate too. You gotta play Kate too.
All right, you got that pride, you're gonna show up.
But what about that pressure? That pressure heavy, you gotta
We're gonna test that pressure. And that's what Team USA
has to do. They gotta test that pressure. And the
rest of the field gotta do that too, because that's

(44:15):
what's really gonna take because at the end of the day,
write down on paper, it's key Shane's all the way,
But it's gonna take a real person that to step
on to that stard line and finish first.

Speaker 4 (44:26):
He's gonna have to have the start of his life. Yes,
he's gonna have to start.

Speaker 2 (44:30):
He's gonna have to start, have the start of his life,
his best start, his reaction time.

Speaker 4 (44:36):
I'm not saying he.

Speaker 2 (44:36):
Needs to be Christian Coleman, but he's gonna have to
have the start of his life. Because the thing is,
if you let Kashan get Kashane get out there and relax.

Speaker 4 (44:44):
You know, a relaxed runner is a dangerous runner. Of Justin,
it is. And that's what he was able to get
to the lead in the Olympic trials.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
And that's why he can sit it down because he
know once he got to the front, he knows the
beliefs of Bill. I don't have that kind of top
end speed to travel. He knows none of those other
guys having a top end speed the challenging. So now
he could just sit down.

Speaker 4 (45:04):
I can relax.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
Justin, you know the guy when they got that league,
Oh goodness, look at that stick.

Speaker 4 (45:13):
That's how he looked. That's how he looked at it.
But he looked up at the screen.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
He's just running half of the race is read and
looking up at the screen. But relaxed, relax and as
soon and as soon as somebody pull up on him
and put him to the test.

Speaker 4 (45:25):
Yup, got to tighten up.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
Okay, let's take a look at the women's two hundred meters.
The favorite hasn't been running well this year. I don't
know if she's an injured Srika Jackson. She pulled out
of the one hundred meters. She's like her and her
coach decided that the best of the best chance for
her to win the medal of the gold medal within
the two hundred, But I don't know. Has she been
under twenty two this year? She hasn't looked like the

(45:51):
su Rika Jackson that ran twenty one forty one and
at the World Championship and Eugene obviously, Gavin Thomas has
been amazing. When you try to when you break this
race down, what are you looking at? What's going to
surprise you? What's going to be the difference? If Serrika
is healthy.

Speaker 1 (46:09):
Is favor If Serika's healthy and we know how Srika
could run, in my mind, she's a favorite.

Speaker 4 (46:16):
You know, she gets a job done.

Speaker 1 (46:17):
In the last couple of years, it wasn't about her winning,
it was about her chasing that world record, that float
joe record. She's the closest one to get to it,
so I think the confidence is at a different level,
you know what I mean. She's become a world champion.
She knows what it takes to be a champion. So
the byproduct is the gold medal. The fact is, I
want to go after that world record, you know what
I mean. So I think a healthy Shika could get

(46:38):
the job done. But if it's a not healthy Shika,
and I'm only reading through the words of listening to
her press conferences and when you talk about preserving your
energy or your health, you know what I mean, just
to see if I have an opportunity to win just
in the two hundred, not over the hundred, and we
know she could do damage in both. She's ran ten
sixty in the hundred, so she's one of the fastest
females in the world bar none know that she can

(47:00):
get the job done there. I think that she's buying
time for her and whatever her little knickknack injuries may be,
to be able to make sure that she's at least
close to one hundred percent as possible when she goes
out there for that two hundred. But at the end
of the day, you cannot count out Gabby. Gabby has
shown that she can get the job done. She does
it with grace, she does it with poise. It almost
shows like a two point oh of Alison Felix. She

(47:22):
glides and she prances across that track, but she powers
it home that last fifty meter. That's what Gabby's dangerous.
At her last races, she just ran. She wasn't even
the first place with twenty meters to go, and she
served on them.

Speaker 4 (47:35):
He ran out Julian Affert and Anita and Dina have
that's what we're talking about. And Julian for just ran
ten seven.

Speaker 1 (47:42):
So that that tells you exactly what Gabby has an
up her sleeve for this two.

Speaker 4 (47:46):
She in shape and she ready.

Speaker 6 (47:49):
Yeah, that's gonna be That's gonna be a good one.

Speaker 4 (47:52):
Oh Joe.

Speaker 2 (47:53):
Obviously the man Noah is the overwhelming. But the grass
he wanted last, he wanted last Olympic cycle. You have
Kennan Baner. He put a he pushed Noah all the
way to the line. You got Arion nineteen, the American
that's run nineteen sixty. You got Banig that's run nineteen

(48:17):
fifty nine. You got the grass that's run nineteen sixty two.
You got a Noah allowed to run nineteen thirty one
handicapped this race.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
Noah, that's his that's his baby. He loves that two hundred.
That's where he thrives at. Right He's ventured into the
world of the one hundred meters and he's been successful
so far. But that baby is his two hundred. That's
where it's pride, his ego lies. He can't lose. Since
he got that bronze medal in twenty twenty one, He's

(48:48):
never lost a two hundred meters since then he's been
so he's gonna come out ready to roll, no matter
what happened. I think we froze a little bit there
we go before that, Before that, you look.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
Eran the fresh legs.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
Yet the fresh legs, he hasn't run this season. He's
only ran test tricks up his sleeve. He always has
tricks up his sleep. He every chip is a more
mature athlete than he's ever been in his life. Right
now he's poison. I think he's gonna do damage hundred
meters and I think he has uh his name on
that podium for that two hundred meters, So I think

(49:41):
it's gonna be a tight race.

Speaker 4 (49:42):
It's actually gonna we have.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
A little technical difficulties with with Noah, excuse me, with
Justin Gatlin. Remember, guys, he is in Paris. There is
a substantial Uh, there's a sixth hour. He's not He's
nine hours from where we are right now, six hours
in the coast, nine hours on the west coast. When

(50:09):
I look at kennybin are you surprised that Kenny Binik
was able to drop down to one hundred meters and
have the level of success we saw Fred Fred came
down from the form all the way down to the one.
I don't know if Kenny might have ransom for I'm
sure he did in high school and maybe in college.
When you have that kind of speed, they throw hell,
you probably ransom four of the meters in the high school.
In college they throw you asside there you're that fast.

(50:31):
But are you surprised the level of success that Kenned
Beinerrick has been able to have and the one hundred
meters after not really running hundred meters, say, the first
five six years of his career, especially on an international.

Speaker 4 (50:43):
Level, No, not at all.

Speaker 1 (50:45):
Actually I trained with Kenny before I retired, So I
watched him compete. You know, I know that he has
I know he has that go, but he has his
acceleration is unmatched. It's the fact that he needs to
make sure his timing at the end of his races.

Speaker 4 (50:55):
Is there. Same thing with Fred Curley.

Speaker 1 (50:58):
I was the first one to race Fred Curly when
he dropped down from the four to the hundred, and
he beat me in one hundred meters. I was like, Oh,
it's a four hundred beater runer. I ain't got nothing
to worry about. Boy. I could not drop him up
at the fifty meter barck. He was still with me
and he beat me. I was like, I told the world, yo,
watch out man, Fred Curly ready boy, And he went
on to become He went on to become a world champion.
So when you look at guys like that, they're poised

(51:18):
to do great things across the board from the four
all the way down to the one hundred.

Speaker 4 (51:22):
They have that talent.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
So if you had the handicaps race and you picking
who you thinks on the podium in the.

Speaker 1 (51:30):
Two hundred, I'm gonna go Noah, Kenny. I think it's
gonna be American sweep. I'm gonna go Noah, Kenny Arian.

Speaker 4 (51:40):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (51:41):
Yeah, I'm trying to When was the last time we
swept the two hundred meters?

Speaker 4 (51:46):
Do you do we have to go back to eighty.

Speaker 1 (51:47):
Four for Olympics? Probably do? Yeah, we probably do. We
have to go back far Man, cause I think.

Speaker 4 (51:57):
That was the year. Who was it was it?

Speaker 2 (52:01):
Uh, Carl Lewis, I think Kurrent Baptist and Thomas Jefferson.

Speaker 4 (52:05):
It was a Mike Marsh. I think it was Mike
Marsh and there.

Speaker 2 (52:09):
In eighty four. Are you sure he was? He was
Mike Martin. That's a little bit. Yeah, that's about.

Speaker 1 (52:13):
Little Yeah, that's a little earlier than Mike Marsh, So
probably I.

Speaker 4 (52:16):
Think Mike Marsh might have been like ninety two, but
it was a sweep. I think. I think Thomas Jefferson.

Speaker 2 (52:22):
I don't because Jodan Loach, Joda Loach was eighty eight.
I think JOEA. Loach, y'all. I don't know why I
want to say that, you.

Speaker 1 (52:32):
Know what, it was eighty eight because I think eighty
four was a boycott year.

Speaker 4 (52:36):
That was a boycott year. No, eighty was the boycott year.
Eighty was the boycott year.

Speaker 2 (52:40):
Was in Moscow because the Soviet inveloded that Afghanistan, and
so the Russians repaid us the favor when it was
in the eighty four, when it was in La so
they repaid us the favor after we boycotted there assid
in nineteen eighty. But I know we as a matter
of matter of fact, hell, we might have swept on
a hundred meters too, because I know Sam Graddy Sam

(53:02):
Sam Graddy card One said da da got your Tennessee alone,
like yourself. He went to the north side Atlanta, And I
think ron Brown might have got the got the bronze.

Speaker 4 (53:15):
Yeah, we might have swept both of them. Yeah, yep,
I think that was it. That was one hundred.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
But uh, I was, I was. I was a sophomore
in high school and now I remember that. Then the relay, Look,
we had three women in the fight. We got silver
and bronze. Gabby so Cha Carry will probably run anchor.

(53:43):
It'll probably be the same team that won the world
and ran one of the fastest time in the history
of the women's relay.

Speaker 4 (53:52):
So Gabby will probably anchor. No Car will anchor.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
Gabby will run third leg because she can run the
turn like no other t t who made the Olympic
finals in the one hundred meters you'll run, You'll run
the second leg and Jefferson will get out the gate
for us if we could, ain't no reason we shouldn't
challenge the world record and win.

Speaker 4 (54:14):
To go.

Speaker 1 (54:15):
You sound like right now, Shannon, you sound like you
sound like my co hosts am ready said go. He said,
the women the four point one they about to break
the world record.

Speaker 4 (54:23):
Man, is there's some news to be honest, man, I
mean if you look at who's usually.

Speaker 1 (54:28):
Our formidable opponent is Jamaica, and right now they're pretty dismantled.

Speaker 4 (54:31):
Yeah, becomes no E.

Speaker 1 (54:32):
Laane Trick is probably injured, and then we don't know
exactly what's going on with Shelley Ann.

Speaker 4 (54:38):
So we have to see exactly Team USA has it
right there.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
It should be an easy win for them, and it
should be a world record for them.

Speaker 2 (54:47):
But that word, I mean, you got They're gonna have
to this. The batar is gonna have to be perfect
because that forty eight, that forty point eight two, I
mean think about what they are bliterate moving, I mean,
they didn't creep after world record is justin they blew
it out of the water. They went sub forty one,
which and women nobody thought that was even possible for

(55:08):
women to go something because the Russians had that.

Speaker 4 (55:11):
I think the Russians of the East. Germans had that
record for damn in German, that's who it was. It
was a Germans yep, yep, and so nobody thought sub
forty one.

Speaker 2 (55:21):
They're like, okay, yeah, somebody would probably get forty I
think the world record at the time was forty one
thirty And somebody's like, well, did somebody probably run forty
one twenty five to go from what they were running
to forty point eight two?

Speaker 1 (55:34):
To listen, when you think about it, those three women
that they trained together, t T Terry, Melissa Jefferson, Shakerry
Richardson iron sharpens, irons, they trained together. They know how
to get the job done, and they're not happy with
the result from the one hundred, you know what I mean.
So they gonna come back to make sure they get
their goal and seal that deal. And what's the better
way to seal the deal. Make sure you get a
goal or a world record with it.

Speaker 6 (55:55):
Two mmm, I like it.

Speaker 2 (56:00):
So see, they're a question where are the best sprinters
from Are they from Florida?

Speaker 4 (56:07):
DA?

Speaker 2 (56:08):
Are they from Teata? Are they from calif Florida? Seemed
like Virginia says, hey, we raising our hand. Georgia say, hey,
throw us in the mix. What the what state produces
the best?

Speaker 1 (56:19):
I'm gonna tell you, just like this, Texas makes the
most fast runners, but Florida makes the best fast runners.
For whatever reason. When you have a sprinter from Florida,
they the best in the world. Boy, Christian Miller, Xavier Carter,
myself is different.

Speaker 4 (56:37):
Different, it's different. We could be one of one every night,
one of one.

Speaker 2 (56:40):
Bro.

Speaker 1 (56:41):
We don't need we don't need a whole arsenal of sprinters.
We just need one or two were good. We're gonna
take over the world.

Speaker 4 (56:49):
But Jeff, I don't know if people realize this.

Speaker 2 (56:51):
You started out as a as a hurdlers, attend.

Speaker 4 (56:56):
The hurdler and drop down. Why did you drop down?
I just had extra talent.

Speaker 1 (57:01):
My high school coach realized that I was the fastest sprinter,
but I also could hurdle. So you know how it
is with team you gotta score them points. You try
to get all the points you can. So he's like,
while why are we trying to fight each other for
the same points. We're gonna throw him in the hurdles.
So that's how I actually got my start. That's actually
how I got to college. Once I got to college,
I told my coades I could sprint too, So we

(57:21):
had a private practice.

Speaker 4 (57:22):
He saw me spread. He kind of shook his.

Speaker 1 (57:24):
Head like okay, okay. He's like, all right, bron you
ain't you ain't a hurdling no more. And then from
there I went on to win titles. The first thing
I said to him was like, hey, coach, I'm from Florida.
He said, oh, yeah, you can sprint. So let me
ask you a question.

Speaker 2 (57:40):
Obviously, what are the typical track practice like for one
hundred meters two hundred meter running?

Speaker 1 (57:47):
I mean, I mean, if you thinking about it, we
have we have stages to get to that point of
elite sprinting. So from from November to about January, that's
all of our endurance phases. From and you wear on
to about uh I'll say, beginning of March that's our
sprint endurance phase. And then from March all the way

(58:08):
to like May that's our speed total speed phase. So
we're doing five hundred repeats in our endurance phase, we're
doing exactly with.

Speaker 4 (58:19):
Two minutes, how many how much rest time?

Speaker 1 (58:22):
You gotta come through hit it BYuT a minute fifty
and then when you cross the line, you got two
minutes rests before you hit the next one, and you
gotta hit you gotta.

Speaker 6 (58:29):
Hit sight of the goodness.

Speaker 1 (58:31):
Yeah, it's different, broy. You come across that line, fight
to get a cross that line. That's how you be
looking for how many you said five? Yeah, you're gonna
you're gonna do two, and then you got you're gonna
back it up. No, you gotta you gotta do five hundred,
two minutes rest, five hundred, Then you get six minutes
rest and you gotta repeat the process two more times.

Speaker 4 (58:50):
So you got six of them.

Speaker 6 (58:51):
Oh oh hell oh hell.

Speaker 4 (58:53):
Yeah, yeah, I want to.

Speaker 5 (58:55):
You know, my daughter she run it at University Kentucky.
She runs a four and eight. You think she has
to do that that they have that same process?

Speaker 1 (59:03):
Is it?

Speaker 6 (59:03):
Is it as complex as you guys know?

Speaker 4 (59:05):
Is she still running the eight hundred?

Speaker 1 (59:07):
Yeah, if she's still running eight hundred, she's gonna have
some workouts on. It's gonna have a lot of broken
a lot of broken four hundreds for show. That's what
she's gonna have for Shure real. But yeah, but if
she get if you're getting ready for that that speeding
Duran's face, that speed and Durn's face is gonna be
a looted to repeat one hundreds.

Speaker 4 (59:23):
What's what girl?

Speaker 6 (59:25):
You good?

Speaker 4 (59:27):
Yes, I'm good? All right? We talk about your workouts
for this season. So it's uh.

Speaker 2 (59:37):
Because I saw what's the guy, Hudson Smith and I
think Stevie Gardner, little Stevie the Bahaman, he's the he's
the reigning Olympic champ.

Speaker 4 (59:49):
And they had six repeaters of two hundred meters, so.

Speaker 2 (59:52):
You had to come through in twenty six seconds and
you got two minute rests. So you come through and
twenty six you got two minute rests, and you got
to do that six times.

Speaker 4 (01:00:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
Yeah, that's a grooling where you got to put that
work in so you can stay that that that that
endurance all the way through your season, you know what
I mean. So you'll want to get out and get
that one off. It's like it's like watching the rounds
of the Olympics right now. You can run a one
off well, but you need to have that energy for
the prelimb semis, and you've got to be able to
show on that finals, right, and.

Speaker 2 (01:00:24):
As you go and as you go, like the four hundred,
it's even more grueling because you got the opening round,
then you got the semis, and now you got and
and now it ain't no more like it ain't no
more jogging because everything is a sprint. I watched them
guys run the ten k, the ten thousand meters and
they basically run it every lap at at.

Speaker 4 (01:00:44):
A minute one hundred percent. Everything is a sprint. It
ain't no more.

Speaker 2 (01:00:48):
Ay, I'm gonna build up, I'm gonna pay sin and
then I'm gonna strike at the end.

Speaker 4 (01:00:52):
Ain't no more, ain't no more going from the gun.
Everything going from the gun. That's what it is. You
got to go out there.

Speaker 1 (01:00:58):
The level of competition has risen in track and field
world across the board.

Speaker 4 (01:01:04):
So let me ask you this. Justin you in the finals.

Speaker 2 (01:01:09):
You done going through your warm up, You've talked to
your coach, you got your last minute instructions. Now you're
up under the stadium and they're getting ready to bring
you guys out. What's going through your mind as you're
getting ready to run as you're getting ready to walk out,
and you know, the premiere event in all of the

(01:01:30):
Olympics and all the track and field is the hundred
meter and you know, if someone has television that race
is on. What's going through justin Gatlan's mind as he's
getting ready to come out from under that stadium and
take that track for nine seconds.

Speaker 1 (01:01:48):
I'm a gamer man, I'm a gamer. So I'm itching
to get out there. I want to get because what
happens is we're sitting in the callroom. The callroom probably
as big as walking a very large walking closet, probably
twenty by twenty. So you imagine the elite athletes, the
best fastest men in the world, they're all sitting shoulder
and shoulder in this quiet little room, and so one

(01:02:08):
individual walks in there, they say, y'all ready go. Then
you stand up, you grab your bag, you get single
file line, and you walk in into that stadium. And
then as you walk in it gets dim. But then
the whole stadium opens up. You could smell the energy.
You could smell the energy because guess what everybody sees
you walk out and they look at you and you
know what time it is. So for me, My mentality is,

(01:02:31):
this is what I've been waiting for. I'm ready to
get on that track. I'm ready to tear these people apart.
I'm ready to go out here and put on the show.
Because all that work I did, all them five hundreds
of everything I did, I ain't I ain't gonna let
it be in vain.

Speaker 4 (01:02:44):
I gotta go out here and show out.

Speaker 1 (01:02:46):
Especially And when you hit at a championship, it's usually
across seas over somewhere else in the world, right, so
you're gonna get a lot of dominant European flags flying around.

Speaker 4 (01:02:56):
People from other countries.

Speaker 1 (01:02:58):
It always be that one little mayor can flag flapping
someone from Iyoa or something like that.

Speaker 4 (01:03:02):
You never met before in your life, you.

Speaker 6 (01:03:05):
Know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:03:05):
And they just waving that flags just to go. Baby,
that's where your energy's at. You look at them, you
point to them, you be like, all right, I'm doing
that for you. And then once that moment happened, you
getting that blocks gun goes off. You got a all
ass man. That's what you do it for. That pride
that I mean, just in your start, that's what you
were known for. Your start, that drag you and Kristen,

(01:03:29):
were that where that toe is basically scraping the gras
scraping the top of the track, and.

Speaker 6 (01:03:34):
It's man, tuck your tuck your arms in your arms
all out here.

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
No no, no, no, I'm no, I'm just saying no, I'm
talking about the top of this.

Speaker 4 (01:03:47):
Yeah, but I'm saying you were doing the exactly.

Speaker 5 (01:03:49):
You had your arms all right here, man, tuck your
arms on an example.

Speaker 4 (01:03:53):
You gotta go eat in the pocket.

Speaker 2 (01:03:54):
So so when you when you're when you're doing that,
and you like, do you know when you have a
great drive, do you know like, oh this it feels.

Speaker 1 (01:04:07):
Oh yeah, you know when you hit it when that
gun goes off and you leave the block.

Speaker 4 (01:04:10):
But I hit that one just like that, you know
it the first the first two steps hit it? Yeah,
and you said sorry salar rats you like yeah, especially when.

Speaker 1 (01:04:25):
You know you can look behind you almost and see
everybody like, oh all right, goddamn boy, they're done.

Speaker 4 (01:04:29):
They done.

Speaker 2 (01:04:34):
So So at what point in time how many steps
do you going before you like, okay, I keep my
head because for really like mo Green was really the
first one that he stayed, I mean he stayed, he
kept his head down and then all of a sudden
it was like a swimmer.

Speaker 4 (01:04:49):
All of a sudden he popped up on top of
the water.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
You know, like Michael Phelp when he go down and
they stay up underwater, and all of a sudden he
pop up. It's like, Mo Green was really like the
first one that we really noticed. I mean Ben Johnson.
Ben Johnson did it also, But we ain't gonna talk
about being uh but Mo, but how many steps are you?
Kind of your steps says okay, one, two, three, four, five, Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:05:13):
Here I go.

Speaker 1 (01:05:15):
You don't necessarily have to count your steps. I use
actually places on the track as a point of reference.
So if I get to that point of reference, it's
almost like thirteen fourteen steps. So if I get to
that point, I know I could eyeball where thirty meters is.
I know I got to drive to there once I
once I come across that that that piece of line
or that color on the track, I can say all right,
this one, I start to come up and start moving.

(01:05:37):
Because you can't. You gotta have your blinders on when
you and your drive phase. You can't be looking around
over the place. That's where your real focus is. Once
you come out that drive phase. You go in that transition,
everything's a blur, and then that's when you start to
come into your competition phase. Once you get to that
top end speed, and then you can look around and say, okay,
this is where everybody is.

Speaker 2 (01:05:53):
Hmm, that's live many How many steps?

Speaker 4 (01:05:57):
How many steps did it take you to run one hundred.

Speaker 1 (01:05:59):
Meters forty one steps? You say it was forty steps.

Speaker 4 (01:06:04):
Wow. So being here with the longest strivers, you're.

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Looking at an average elite elite athletes taking about forty
forty three steps to forty four steps.

Speaker 6 (01:06:16):
Yeah, yeah, I was. I was doing forty four in
high school too.

Speaker 4 (01:06:19):
Bright.

Speaker 6 (01:06:20):
Yeah, man, that's crazy, bro, that's moving.
