1 00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:04,320 This episode of the City Smack podcast is presented by EX 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:06,640 Endurance. When you finish a hard workout, 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:10,160 whether it's a long run or a workout on the track or a big 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,760 lift session, the work isn't actually done. 5 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,200 We all know this. That's when recovery starts. 6 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,160 It can get expensive to constantly pop into a smoothie 7 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,200 shop after a run, so one of the things that I've been doing 8 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:26,160 lately is using EX Endurance Protein, which is designed 9 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,200 specifically to help your body recover, rebuild, and get 10 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,880 stronger after training. I'm super excited to welcome EX 11 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,320 Endurance into Cydia Smack's family of sponsors since I've 12 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,920 watched them support many professional athletes over the 13 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,040 last decade. Mac back in the day was an EX 14 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,720 Endurance athlete. Lately you may have seen Jess 15 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,760 McClain using their product as she builds up to the Boston 16 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,080 Marathon. What makes their protein a 17 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,680 little different is their blend. It combines 4 different types of 18 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,960 protein so your body gets both fast absorbing protein for 19 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,320 immediate recovery and slower release protein to support 20 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,200 muscle repair over time. Each serving delivers 20 grams 21 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,800 of protein and over 4 grams of BCA AS, which help support 22 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,200 muscle growth and recovery after long sessions. 23 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,960 It also includes electrolytes and vitamins B6B12 and D to 24 00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:18,880 support your overall recovery. And one thing that I've 25 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,240 appreciated is that it's easy on the stomach. 26 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,040 No bloating or digestion issues like you sometimes get with 27 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,880 other whey proteins. You just mix 1 scoop with about 28 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,000 four to 6 ounces of liquid and it's great before a workout, 29 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,080 after a workout, or really anytime during the day when you 30 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,760 want to support your recovery. Now if you want to go crazy, 31 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,800 here's my go to mix which is the chocolate protein, half a 32 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,840 banana, a scoop of peanut butter, ice and some almond 33 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,200 milk. Mix it all together, delicious. 34 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,560 If you're putting in the work and training X Endurance protein 35 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,200 can help your body bounce back and get you ready for that next 36 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,480 big session.

All right, it is Saturday 21st 44 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:33,640 of March and we've just finished day two of the World Indoor 45 00:02:33,640 --> 00:02:37,920 Championships Kujawi Pomoja here in Toran, Poland. 46 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:43,680 A lot of great racing, some really fun, fantastic results. 47 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:49,680 So I'm Preet Majithia with a quick round up of everything 48 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,880 that happened over the course of the day's action. 49 00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:57,240 Let's start off with the morning session. 50 00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,800 We'll keep it a little shorter this time. 51 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,520 Couple of main things. There was a final of the mixed 52 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:12,440 relay and straight final. Six teams in it and we got the 53 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,960 US team announcement. I think everyone who saw it went 54 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,360 straight to Google to to try and identify who who the different 55 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,960 runners were. So, so a fairly new team. 56 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,120 I think Javon O'Brien is the only one former Texas A&M runner 57 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,960 who who'd been on AUS team before. 58 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:39,280 But nonetheless, AUS team is always strong. 59 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:51,040 And then the first changeover happened and essentially there 60 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,240 was a lot of confusion. The Jamaican athlete was coming 61 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:59,440 in on the inside, the US athlete was coming in outside them. 62 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,440 But the Jamaican athlete was placed by the officials outside 63 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,600 of the US athletes. So the baton was passed kind of 64 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:15,520 a cross between the US athletes by the Jamaicans and that caused 65 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,120 a bit of obstruction. And then there was a bit of 66 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,959 carnage with with the Poles and the Dutch coming in. 67 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:29,760 And essentially Sarah Reifenrath of Team USA went down, lost her 68 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:34,200 shoe and still impressively with the fall and the lost shoe still 69 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:39,600 managed to run a 52nd 56 second relay leg. 70 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:44,880 But obviously that really did take Team USA out of contention 71 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:49,560 for the medals. Unfortunately, Jamaica were 72 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:54,040 subsequently disqualified, but the Belgian team of Jonathan 73 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,720 Sakour, Ilana Hansen's Julian Watron and Helena Parnett 74 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,640 managed to take a convincing win. 75 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:09,000 Spain got the silver and wants Jamaica work, were disqualified. 76 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,480 Poland ended up in bronze, which is obviously popular with the 77 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:19,360 home crowd. And then the other final in the 78 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:28,640 morning was the men's high jump, Ole Darshuk of Ukraine, one in 2 79 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,680 meters, 30. So Ukraine take a sweep of the 80 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,080 high jump medals, But I suppose the most fun part of this was 81 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:42,760 Eric Portillo of Mexico, who jumped to PB of two minutes 82 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,240 thirty and was just so thrilled to get a medal. 83 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:51,240 And it's those kind of moments that you kind of live for at 84 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,720 these sorts of championships where someone unexpected can can 85 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,320 get a medal and have a real, real breakthrough moment. 86 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,880 So that was really nice and really inspirational. 87 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,560 I've got a great interview with him up on on the six Mag 88 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,240 YouTube. And then Raymond Richards and 89 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:13,000 Sangyuk Wu both tied for the bronze medal in in 226. 90 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,440 So it wasn't kind of the strongest competition, 91 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,520 unfortunately at the end of the day. 92 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,760 But yes, some some some nice results. 93 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:28,680 And then I suppose we have a 60 meter hurdle prelims and the 94 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,560 women's 60 meter prelims. But they were all pretty chalk. 95 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,840 All the expected people went through. 96 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,320 And then we had the 800 meter semi finals. 97 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:45,160 So on the women's side, as expected, Keely Hodgkinson 98 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,080 comfortable heat win. Addy Wiley sort of sat in behind 99 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:53,720 her, but they both ran. So Keely ran 15853 and Addy 100 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,720 Wiley an indoor PB of 15875 right behind. 101 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:03,280 They were well clear by the end and and Cruz threw comfortably. 102 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,560 Pretty impressive run from Allie Wiley as well. 103 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:12,080 I think Keely was also a bit happier with with her effort in 104 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:18,080 the semi final. And then Audrey Werro was kind 105 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,840 of expected to win the third heat and she did. 106 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:27,440 And then *** Gettichu of Ethiopia took the second spot of 107 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,840 the two available for the final. But it was the first heat that 108 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,160 was perhaps we weren't really sure what was going to happen. 109 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:39,840 Obviously it had Izzy Buffy who's 3rd on the on the time top 110 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:45,480 list this year. But it was Hayley Kitching of 111 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,800 Penn State and Australia who took the win in 2 flat O 6. 112 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,160 Some really great racing from her, really moved up at the 113 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,840 right moments. And Clara Lieberman of France 114 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:04,120 takes the second spot for that final, which is tomorrow, Sunday 115 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,600 evening. But yeah, really great. 116 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:11,480 Penn State have a man in the 800 final as well as we'll come on 117 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:12,920 to. But but really, really 118 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,680 impressive for them to get Hayley Kitching in to that 119 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,720 final. So yeah, men's 800 meter semi 120 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:30,040 finals, first one Peter Bowl wins in one 4621 And Alan Clay 121 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:35,799 of Penn State, as I mentioned, just behind very impressive meet 122 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,559 for him. Mark English was also in this 123 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,880 heat and and Ben Patterson of GB, Ben sort of led the first 124 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,360 lap or couple of laps. Then mock English made a very 125 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,640 hard move which kind of spread the field out a little bit. 126 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,080 But Peterborough was always sitting comfortably in second or 127 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,520 third place and really kind of position himself well to take 128 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,280 the win. And Alan Clay, he kind of said 129 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:03,760 afterwards, you know, I always have a kick. 130 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,280 I know I always get a kick. So if I'm within range, if I'm 131 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,760 within 510 meters I can I can catch people. 132 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,640 So yeah, he did just that and and impressively made a world 133 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:22,520 final, so props to him. Second heat was probably a 134 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:27,960 pretty tough heat, but Cooper Lutkin House looked serene and 135 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:35,840 cruising to A14429, whilst Mohammed Atawi, by contrast, 136 00:09:36,680 --> 00:09:41,320 worked really hard for his 14448, adopting the same 137 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,840 strategy as he adopted in the prelims yesterday of sitting at 138 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,720 the back and coming very late. I've still have a lot of work to 139 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,280 do. Pretty stressful. 140 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:57,560 And he sort of edged out key edge Widdeka of Poland, 141 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:03,280 unfortunately for the home crowd and Noah Quebec of Kenya, who 142 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,920 looked really good in the prelims, but he he got 4th. 143 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,400 So that was second heat and the final heat. 144 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,840 Elliott Crestan looking very, very controlled again to advance 145 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:23,800 to the final in 14571. Marina Blue Deck of Croatia came 146 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:28,720 three for that second spot. Sean Dolan, our Team USA 147 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,720 unfortunately missed out, came third. 148 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,000 He ran a really impressive race. The 1st 750 meters, he was just 149 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:41,040 in the right position, sitting in the pocket on the rail, you 150 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,360 know, and, and moving along. But he just ran 750 meters of a 151 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,760 really good race and and then didn't quite have it in that 152 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,400 last 50 when when blue deck came past him. 153 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,800 So he unfortunately does not advance. 154 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,280 But obviously a great experience at, well, indoors for him. 155 00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:04,360 Yeah. But the other kind of moment of 156 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:09,760 the morning really was right at the beginning where Simon 157 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:17,880 Ahammer of Switzerland in the men's heptathlon ran 752, which 158 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,600 is a time that we've got him into the men's 60 hurdles final 159 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,520 later in the day. But he ran that it's I think 160 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,640 it's a it's a world heptathlon best. 161 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,040 And that really threw the cat monks pigeons because he was 162 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,440 already leading that heptathlon overnight. 163 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:39,440 But it then put Ashton Eaton's world record within reach. 164 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,120 And we were on world record watch. 165 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,040 We were expecting, you know, potential world records from 166 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:48,680 Mondo in the pole vault later on, potentially in the women's 167 00:11:48,680 --> 00:11:52,960 60 meters that the the world record looked potentially 168 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,280 vulnerable, but but this one was was a little unexpected. 169 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,000 But with that hurdle time really put that on the radar. 170 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:04,480 So, and we then got a pole vault where he really needed to jump 171 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:10,680 5:30, which is kind of close to his his PB of 535 outdoors in 172 00:12:10,680 --> 00:12:14,120 the pole vault. And he did it, he jumped 5:30, 173 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,720 which which then made it really pretty likely that he would he 174 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,320 would be able to, to get that world record. 175 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,840 So that that was an amazing end to the morning with that pole 176 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,760 vault being the last thing on in the arena before the end of that 177 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:33,520 morning session. And yeah, I love a peptathlon 178 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,200 decathlon pole vault is it's just the most fantastic thing. 179 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,360 And here it had had even more meaning because of the potential 180 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,520 world record. But yeah, going on to the 181 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:48,880 evening session, we kicked off with the men's pole vault final. 182 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,480 And Mondo de Plantis, as expected, took the win. 183 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:58,040 But it wasn't quite as straightforward because Manolo 184 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,040 Corrales sort of played the tactical game. 185 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,160 He skipped 6 meters, jumped 605, meant Mondo had to jump 610. 186 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,920 And then sort of because Manolo is passing John Mondo ended up 187 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:17,960 jumping six 10615, Manolo attempted 620, came very, very 188 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,160 close. And then again Mondo had to do 189 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:27,400 625, which he then did. And Manolo had an attempt at 190 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,160 6:25 and was also very, very close. 191 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:36,440 So what that meant really was the Mondo, I think decided that 192 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,640 that going for the world record was going to be a bit tough on 193 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,000 the night. So we didn't get to see him 194 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:47,400 attempt the world record. But yeah, I think Manolo is 195 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,480 going to get over some of these 62625 kind of bars and and maybe 196 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,720 even threaten something close to Monday's world record. 197 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,960 So I think we've got a lot of exciting competitions in store. 198 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:02,560 Bronze went to Curtis Marshall of Australia also jumping over 6 199 00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:06,760 meters for the second time. So all three men over 6 meters, 200 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,320 which was which was absolutely fantastic and, and kind of one 201 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:14,400 of the highlights of the meet as we were expecting men's 400 202 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:19,200 meter final, our first chance to see the new final format. 203 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:29,680 So first heat, Chris Robinson ran 4555 ahead of Attila Monar 204 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,200 of Hungary, who was kind of one of the in form athletes coming 205 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,920 in. But he only ran 4571 and and the 206 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,480 athletes were placed on bean bags in the middle of the track 207 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,680 to weight the results of the second race, which to be honest, 208 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,120 like even the hot seats were better. 209 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,680 The bean bags were a little, a little funny. 210 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,880 Not the most edifying, but but there we are. 211 00:14:54,680 --> 00:15:00,680 So in the second race we had Christopher Morales Williams, 212 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:05,000 Caleb McRae, Dream Richards and Thomas Horak of the Czech 213 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:11,320 Republic. I think Caleb McRae took it out 214 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:18,920 hard and he I think Christopher Morales Williams kind of was, 215 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:24,160 was kind of going with him but but decided to let McRae have 216 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:29,160 have the break, sat in, chilled out a bit. 217 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:34,280 They went a bit hot through that 1st 200 from the looks of it. 218 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,480 I think it might have been close to a sub 21 and he just came 219 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,800 through like a train at the end and ran 4476 championship record 220 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:51,200 to take the gold medal, kind of. McRae 45-O3 for silver and Jerem 221 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:57,720 Richards 4539 for bronze. I mean, Jerem, I love Jerem. 222 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,600 His interview is absolutely brilliant. 223 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,920 But all three of them really, really great interviews. 224 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:08,840 Go check those out. And yeah, yeah, I think I think 225 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,200 the two section final mixed, mixed opinions from the athletes 226 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,760 about it. I think this one, at least we 227 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,200 got the top three athletes in in this final. 228 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,400 But I think Chris Robinson was thinking, you know, if I'd been 229 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,440 in that race, maybe I would have been pushed to to a quicker time 230 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,760 as well. So I think that's the challenge. 231 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,080 When you are competing, you can only compete with the people 232 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,200 you're on the track with. And and that that was a little 233 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,840 difficult. And maybe while we're on the 234 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,480 four hundreds, maybe let's let's take care of the women's four 235 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,760 hundreds, which happened a little later in the evening. 236 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:48,920 So the first race was won by home favorite Natalia Bakari 237 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:55,560 Etchka of Poland in 5083. That's her first sub 51 of the 238 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,800 season. So really good time to run that. 239 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,640 And yeah, she got jobs on Lika Klava 51 O2. 240 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:09,079 We then waited for the second heat with Lourdes Laura Manuel 241 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:13,839 of Czech Republic. And Henrietta Jaeger in this 242 00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:23,160 heat and Henrietta Jaeger stumbled with about, you know, 243 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,960 somewhere between 100 and and 50 to go, lost her momentum 244 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,400 completely and faded to to 4th and and last in this race, still 245 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,320 around 15 or five, but but still obviously, you know, she was 246 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,280 expected to be be a mental threat. 247 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:43,600 But Lourdes Glory glory Emmanuel 5076, she's an absolute talent. 248 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,920 She's also coached by Laura Merville alongside Lika Klava 249 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:53,440 from Cabal etcetera. So we've also got a really great 250 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:58,800 interview with him up on the Six Maggie tube because he was 251 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:03,760 obviously coaching the gold and the bronze medalists from this 252 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,760 race. But yeah. 253 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,440 And then we had the 1000 meters of the heptathlon. 254 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,240 And as expected, Simon E Hammer broke the heptathlon world 255 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:18,200 record, which is 6645 points set by Ashton Eaton. 256 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:25,440 He ended up scoring 6670. He needed to run 243 for 1000 257 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,480 meters to to break the world record. 258 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:34,240 His his PB was 241. He ran sort of a new a small PB, 259 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:39,760 241 O four and yeah, got the world record, got the $50,000 260 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,280 bonus, Yeah. So we got to do something really 261 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,760 special there. Absolutely brilliant. 262 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:51,720 And behind him, Heath Baldwin of USA 4 PBS. 263 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:56,560 That's seven events really impressive from him to take the 264 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,760 silver medal. And then Carl Garland, who sort 265 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,800 of came in, he wasn't really sure what kind of shape he was 266 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,760 in. And, and you know, he is one of 267 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,040 the top, you know, Hept athletes in history. 268 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,840 He has one of one of the top scores, top two or three scores. 269 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:16,800 But he's yeah, even he wasn't sure what kind of shape he's in, 270 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,880 but he still managed to come away with with the bronze 271 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:23,320 medals. So 2 medals for Team USA in the 272 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:28,160 heptathlon as well. But yeah, I think what you've 273 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:38,160 all been waiting for, the 3000 meters women's came first and it 274 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:42,400 was a jog fest. They were jogging and they were 275 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:48,080 jogging so much that about four minutes into the race, so 276 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:54,920 probably about 1200 meters into the race, they Martin Garcia of 277 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:59,640 Spain went into chess hole who in turn went in, who sort of had 278 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,120 to put her hand out. And that ended up in the back of 279 00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:05,960 Froheni Hilu, who's obviously one of the favourites for this 280 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,960 race. Hilu ends up on the floor. 281 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,960 Jess Hall managed to stay on her feet and carry on. 282 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:21,720 But but yeah, I mean, that obviously changed the complexion 283 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:27,160 of the race a fair bit. But it was still a complete jog 284 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:32,360 the The final ending time was 8. Winning time was 85764, so they 285 00:20:32,360 --> 00:20:34,520 barely scraped. The medalists were the only 286 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:41,400 three athletes under 9 minutes in this race and Nadia Batacliti 287 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,080 took the win. She was kind of in control from, 288 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,840 from a couple of acts to go really. 289 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:51,520 Jess Hull did make a pretty hard, well, she tried to make a 290 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,160 move like afterwards in hindsight, she said it wasn't 291 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:58,680 hard enough of a move and, and maybe that that sort of just 292 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,160 meant that the Batacliti went went past her and then then 293 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:06,120 Mackay just caught her on the line for the silver medal. 294 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,080 But very impressive from Emily Mackay. 295 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:13,920 She was in all the right places and, and, and was patient and, 296 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,960 and used her, her closing speed to good effect. 297 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:23,720 And, and she kind of did say that, you know, she was, you 298 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:28,200 know, she was, yeah. She she kind of knew that 299 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,800 tactically she'd got some of these tactical 3 KS wrong in the 300 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:35,360 past and she'd learnt from those to kind of do that. 301 00:21:35,360 --> 00:21:37,160 And and she's done that successfully. 302 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:43,760 Alicin Bouquet of Ethiopia came 4th and Shilan Ilds of Turkey 303 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:48,760 and also of Oregon, very impressive 5th place in this 304 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:50,800 race for only highly faded to 6th. 305 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,600 I think, you know, really unfortunate for her. 306 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,640 I think this is her third fall a major championships. 307 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:03,440 I think she fell in Tokyo and she fell in, I think she may 308 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:04,720 have even fall in the Olympics as well. 309 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,880 So she's she's had a lot of bad luck in major championships. 310 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,840 And yeah, I really do hope it tends for her because I think, 311 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,400 as I've said before, I think she's one of those athletes that 312 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:25,400 can, you know, that that can, you know, tactically run really 313 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:30,680 well to win these medals. And then the men's 3000 meters, 314 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:33,920 this is the one we're all waiting for. 315 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:40,720 I mean, yeah, The Ethiopians really took this one. 316 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,080 I mean, Cole Hawker started off controlling it for the first few 317 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,720 laps, as he always does. Then The Ethiopians took it, 318 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,240 ratcheted it down to about 30 seconds a lap for quite a few 319 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,000 laps. And. 320 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,280 And Yarid was sitting comfortably in third behind 321 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:59,840 them, Hawker in fourth, Josh Kerr a little bit further back. 322 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:08,600 But yeah, it was it was kind of, you know, ended up being a 735 323 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:13,200 race. But I think Cole Hocker once 324 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:19,440 again, unfortunately, he was obviously in for 5th, 6th and 325 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,800 and sort of just at the moment Josh made his move. 326 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,880 Hocker was kind of blocked a little bit slightly out of it 327 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,760 and he just missed it. And I don't know whether he 328 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,000 missed it or we couldn't get out or but it but it wasn't. 329 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,560 And and so he went and he managed to close really well 330 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:48,120 alongside Jan Schrub of France just out dipping Jan Schrub for 331 00:23:48,120 --> 00:23:50,480 the silver medal. I mean, those three guys were 332 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,360 were a second clear in the rest of the field. 333 00:23:53,360 --> 00:23:58,520 But but yes, Josh Kerb just about holds on with with Hawker 334 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,720 coming for him. But yeah, I think again, Hawker 335 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,720 maybe in the right position could have gotten to Kerb, but 336 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,920 but he he just wasn't when he when he started his move. 337 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,000 So obviously a bit more to debate on that. 338 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,240 I'm sure in in days to come as well. 339 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,920 George Beamish unfortunately fell off the back and and didn't 340 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:30,120 have a good race. Yared was kind of slightly 341 00:24:30,120 --> 00:24:34,880 disappointed because it was kind of more close to being his kind 342 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:39,080 of race. But yeah, I think it was always 343 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,640 going to be a tough one. And I think Josh Kerr, we know 344 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,840 that when he comes to a championship, he's always, 345 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:51,520 always ready to go. Let's maybe pick up then the 346 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,320 men's 60m hurdles. Home favorite Jakob Szymanski 347 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:04,040 runs 740 for the win. Enrique Lopis 742, perennial 4th 348 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,680 placer finally gets a global medal. 349 00:25:07,120 --> 00:25:13,280 So, so pretty happy for him. And then Trey Cunningham, 743 350 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:18,800 for bronze now by sort of 91 thousandths per second. 351 00:25:22,120 --> 00:25:29,480 He was devastated because he ran 735 in the semi, second fastest 352 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,400 time in the world this year behind Jacoby Tharps 7th A2. 353 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,520 And yeah, he was looking really good. 354 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:44,760 And unfortunately Dylan Beard was, he sort of pulled up. 355 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:50,680 He qualified for the final, but he he pulled up just as after he 356 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,880 crossed the line and so I think they immediately withdrew to 357 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,240 allow another athlete to take to take the spot because he he 358 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,240 wasn't he didn't think he was going to be able to compete in 359 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,400 that final. So, so unfortunate for him, but 360 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,200 but hope he's OK. And then the women's 60 meters. 361 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:15,600 Now this was a crazy race. It it was again seven O 8 to 362 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:21,000 make this final in the 1st place, which is crazy and we're 363 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:26,680 expecting really great things. And Zainab Doso of Italy ran 7 364 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,000 flat in the semi final. She was the fastest in the semi 365 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:38,120 finals and she was ran 7 flat again in the final and very, 366 00:26:38,120 --> 00:26:41,640 very impressive from her. She's kind of won bronze, then 367 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,200 silver and now upgraded to gold over 60 meters. 368 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:54,080 But Team USA, Jayceus says seven O 3 gets the silver medal ahead 369 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:59,360 of Junior Alfred by three. One thousandths per second. 370 00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:01,040 Really good breakthrough for her. 371 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:06,520 Really strong Junior Alfred. Yeah, third place, also seven O 372 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,760 3. I think she was pretty 373 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,040 disappointed with that from from the looks of it, she didn't stop 374 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:15,600 to talk to anyone. But yeah, up incoming Jamaicans, 375 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:22,000 Brianna Liston, Janelle Smith from 4th and 5th, Eva Swaroda in 376 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:28,640 6th and Dean Rush Smith in 7th and Patricia van der Baker, 377 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,360 Luxembourg in 8th. But yeah, it was it was a really 378 00:27:32,360 --> 00:27:36,800 tough final to make. And yeah, we got a really good 379 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,480 race. So yeah. 380 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,280 And I think that was more or less it. 381 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:46,400 Women's triple jump is probably the only last thing left the 382 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,880 honest. Perez Hernandez of Cuba won it 383 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:55,000 in 1495, Yulimar Rojas of Venezuela in 1486. 384 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,360 So she is really getting back to her very best. 385 00:27:58,360 --> 00:28:02,440 And Sally Saw, which is a name I haven't heard before, of Senegal 386 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:08,280 1470 jumps a personal best to get the bronze medal. 387 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:17,960 Jasmine Moore of Team USA ended up in 7th place for 1433 but 388 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:22,360 still jumped to season's best. So that is a troubleshoot, but 389 00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:26,720 that was that for day two of the World Indoor Championships. 390 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:32,320 Tomorrow we have got the men's women's long jump, the men's 391 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:39,720 shot put, and we then have the pentathlon, the women's 60 392 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,760 hurdles, 4 by 4 relays, and then of course a bunch of other 393 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:50,400 finals in the evening, the 1500, the women's pole vault and the 394 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,840 800 meters. So lots to look forward to on 395 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,720 day three and I'll be back with another recap tomorrow. 396 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,200 This episode of the City of Smack podcast is presented by 397 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,480 Lollipop, because of course it is. 398 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,840 I feel like everywhere I look lately, I'm seeing Lollipop. 399 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,760 It's on all of my favorite shows. 400 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,960 I saw it on Traitors when the contestants were sitting around 401 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,880 the mansion trying to decide who to vanish at the Round Table. 402 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:25,720 It pops up in episodes of Shrinking on Apple TV, and it 403 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,800 even had a moment in The Housemaid starring Sidney 404 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,640 Sweeney.
