On the show today,

  • We check up on David’s bold predictions made at the beginning of this year
  • Chris (the only athletico to own a diamond league diamond, FOR REAL!!) tells us why this year’s diamond race is in serious need of a re-structure
  • We discuss some DL results, as well as our favourite races from trials at home and across the sea.

WARNING: this episode of Trackcastic is deeply sensual and alluring (read: non-sensical and disturbing)
