The crew debates his chances, Cole Hocker's potential spoiler role, and whether the Bowerman Mile at Pre could see the record fall first. In Australia, 19-year-old Cam Myers ran 3:30 for 1500m, demolishing world indoor medalist Adam Spencer by seven seconds. Shelby Houlihan didn't come close to Alicia Monson's American record at 10,000m but was still a pretty decent run. A Rojo Rant erupts over the Berlin Half Marathon, where pacer Dennis Kipkemoi was seemingly told not to win after bridging past leader Andrea Kiptoo. Plus, details emerge on Adaejah Hodge's secret 17-month doping ban and the AIU's controversial use of silent suspensions. 🎁 🎧 Get a 2nd LetsRun podcast every week + bonus content: Join the Supporters Club — https://www.letsrun.com/subscribe LINKS Flagstaff Coaching Clinic (sponsor)Josh Kerr Announces Project 222 Targeting 3:42 Mile World Record at London DLBerlin Generali Half Marathon — Dennis Kipkemoi Pacing ControversyShelby Houlihan Wins The Ten in 30:50Tate Taylor Runs 9.92 at Texas 6A State MeetGout Gout vs Lachlan Kennedy 200m at Maurie Plant MeetGout Gout Viral Sprint VideoThread of the Week: Jude Ritzenhein Runs 4:10.95 1600m as a Ninth Grader at Altitude TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Flagstaff Coaching Clinic 00:39 Aletheia Sponsor01:38 Episode Preview and NCAA Tournament Chat07:28 Josh Kerr Announces Project 22213:28 Brooks Speed Suit and Record Logistics18:07 Can Cole Hocker Crash the Party?25:26 Niels Laros Injury Update and the Mile's Future28:53 Cam Myers Puts On a Show in Melbourne30:57 Hobbs Kessler and Teen Phenom Expectations35:44 Gout Gout, Texas Sprinting, and Young Phenoms43:34 Rojo Rant: Berlin Half Marathon Scandal49:48 Should Pacers Be Allowed to Win?53:31 Integrity of Competition and Rabbit Ethics59:09 Shelby Houlihan's 10K and US Women's Distance Depth62:58 Adaejah Hodge's Secret Doping Ban68:06 Silent Bans and Anti-Doping Transparency72:58 Youth Doping Crisis and Unanswered Questions76:35 Previewing the Top US Runners for 202678:54 Outro and Supporters Club CONTACT Email: podcast@letsrun.comCall or text: 1-844-LETSRUN (1-844-538-7786) ABOUT THE LETSRUN.COM PODCAST Since 2000, LetsRun.com has been the independent home of elite running.

Cooper Lutkenhaus, 17, became the youngest men's individual world champion in any track event by winning the 800 at World Indoors in Torun, Poland, then celebrated at McDonald's with a Big Mac and a gold medal around his neck. Keely Hodgkinson obliterated the women's 800 field by over three seconds and anchored Britain's four-by-four relay within the hour. Africa was completely shut out of the running medal podium for the first time in World Indoors history. Off the track, World Athletics granted the US seven women's entries at the World Road Running Championships half marathon after the Atlanta course debacle, and reports surfaced that the London Marathon may expand to two days in 2027. 🎁 🎧 Get a 2nd LetsRun podcast every week + bonus content: Join the Supporters Club — https://www.letsrun.com/subscribe Links LetsRun.com Supporters Club — https://www.letsrun.com/subscribeLetsRun.com Shop — https://shop.letsrun.comJonathan Gault's recap of Cooper Lutkenhaus's World Indoor goldCooper Lutkenhaus World Indoor 800 thread on LetsRun message boardCooper Lutenkhau's coach Chris Capeau podcast after World IndoorsCole Hocker's Instagram post on his silver medal perspectiveThe Guardian: Revealed — Secret Plans for Two-Day London MarathonWorld Athletics announcement on US women's half marathon entriesAletheia — Free 30-Day Trial + 10% Off with Code LETSRUN10Aletheia free sensor giveaway — enter your email Timestamps 00:00 Supporters Club and Sponsor00:58 World Indoors Recap Overview02:19 Cooper Lutkenhaus Wins World Indoor Gold06:49 Cooper Meets Let's Run at McDonald's10:32 Cooper's Tactical Masterclass Breakdown13:09 Youngest Men's World Champion in History15:23 Managing Expectations for a 17-Year-Old Champion18:48 Cooper's Ceiling, Wanyonyi, and the 800 Meter Rivalry22:20 Dreaming of LA 2028 and Keeping Cooper Grounded25:38 Coach Capeau's Open-Minded Approach27:16 Keely Hodgkinson Dominates the Women's 80033:52 Jordan Anthony and Sprint Stars Shine37:54 Biggest Winners and Losers From Torun45:20 Cole Hocker's Perspective and Men's 1500 Parity50:12 Prediction Contest and Aletheia Sponsor55:22 Team USA's Medal Haul at World Indoors59:21 Africa Shut Out of the Podium63:47 US Women's Half Marathon Selection Controversy66:08 USATF's Seven-Woman Solution Breaks Down73:56 London Marathon Eyes a Two-Day Event80:49 Grand Slam Track Bankruptcy Update84:45 Outro and Supporters Club Contact us: Email: podcast@letsrun.comCall or text: 1-844-LETSRUN (1-844-538-7786) ABOUT THE LETSRUN.COM PODCAST Since 2000, LetsRun.com has been the independent home of elite running.

    Cooper Lutkenhaus, just 17 years old, became the youngest world champion in World Indoor Championships history, winning the men's 800 in Toruń, Poland — on spring break. His coach Chris Capeau joined the show live to break down the race tactics and what makes Cooper different. Keely Hodgkinson dominated the women's 800 in 1:55.3, then stunned with a 50.1 anchor on Britain's 4x400. Georgia Hunter Bell claimed 1500 gold, capping a historic day for British distance running. East Africa went home without a single distance medal, and Mariano Garcia pulled off a brilliant wire-to-wire 1500 win for Spain.https://www.letsrun.com/subscribe
