Leo and Lex Young join us at 78:19 to tell us about the transition to collegiate running, how Stanford is going so far, talk a little NIL and a lot more.
Prior to that we break discuss the latest in the running world including Rojo being called by Kenyan parliament for an apology and Parker Vably getting paid (more than Cole Hocker?!) by New Balance, before discussing who should be the athlete of the year (Grant Holloway, Rai Benjamin, Jakob Ingebrigtsen or Noah Lyles on the men's side, Beatrice Chebet, Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, or Faith Kipyegon on the women's side).
We discuss the prenats NCAA cross country results before talking to the Young twins at 78:19.
