Track World News

In this episode of the Track World News Podcast, Noah Williams and Colin Waitzman break down some big performances from the week and other topics in the sport. Here is the agenda: 1. During the press conference of World Relays Noah Lyles says, "Let's just say a lot of people in the US were very, very, very upset that I ran the 4x400m (at World Indoors). And to that, I say: run faster. Push me out". Did he deserve a spot or should it have been someone else. 2. Team USA gets disqualified in the 4x400m relay due to changing position in the exchange zone. 3. People on Twitter have been saying that sprinters have been running slower recently, but we breakout the numbers to see if that is actually true and the results might shock you. 4. Quincy Wilson runs a 45.17 in the 400m and signs with WME Sports. Can he make the team in the Olympics as a 16 year old high schooler? 5. Story time from our previous conference championships.

We interviewed the Christian Miller, the 17 year old that has the fastest 100m time in the world with a time of 9.93. We discussed what he did to get to this level, how the race felt to him, preparation for the Olympic Trials, and even rank the best high school sprinting states.
