EP 16: OTM Preview & Farah Recants Faster Than He Can Run 400m

Getting the episodes down to some tighter times, so timestamps don't matter as much as they used to I suppose. First 50-60 minutes of this entire show covers is just talking about the Men's and Women's side of the Olympic Marathon Trials this weekend in Atlanta. Shoutout to former RPI XC Alumni Sean O Connor and Jake Andrews! We also talk about Mo Farah's rapid recanting of his drug use, a little bit back to mechanical doping, and we have a race recap of Specer's Gasparilla half marathon this weekend! Our host ran 1:10:24 for a 2nd place finish, pretty interesting to hear about.
