~ trackcastic ~ Leave a comment

Hello!

Sorry we were away for so long! Your reward/punishment is almost 2 hours of TrackCastic 😀 

And, as promised, it’s our nepo-baby episode (aka “neposode”).

In the 6 weeks that we’ve been away, there’s been 6 epic Diamond League meets, a Faith 4 attempt, Euro U23 & Euro Team Champs!

Chris has been in the mixed zone at the London Diamond League, so you’ll hear from an array of athletes in this podcast, including stars from the stadium; Charlie Dobson, Morgan Lake & Mykolas Alekna.

Alicia also joins us to discuss the Jamaican field eventers moving to Turkey, update us on Athlos and inform us about the fantastic new Athletics app by Colin Jackson!

Plus, you’ll hear from Amy Hunt, Hannah Nuttall, Innes FitzGerald, Marco Arop and our new favourite long jumper Claire Bryant.

Plenty to get stuck into, so hit play and get listening!

Episode 71: Relay Saying Something

~ trackcastic ~ Leave a comment

We’re back!

It took Chris so long to recover from the London Marathon, that we needed a break, but we’re back with SO MUCH athletics to discuss.

We look back on the drama of the World Relays, debate whether Grand Slam Track is a better product than the Diamond League and go through the goings on from Gotzis.

Plus, there’s a round up of all the domestic success so far this season. There’s a lot to get through!

Thanks for listening 😀

Episode 70: Amber Turns Gold & Grand Slam Chat (WIC Review)

~ trackcastic ~ Leave a comment

Hello!

As Chris is training for the upcoming London Marathon, we’ve got another marathon pod for you!

The first hour of the pod is our review of a rather fun World Indoor Championships from Nanjing, where Amber Anning and Jeremiah Azu become world champions for GB!

We then heavily discuss what worked and what didn’t work at the opening Grand Slam Track weekend. Michael Johnson is looking for feedback and we’ve got plenty! Alicia pops in to give her thoughts on it all too.

Plus, there’s the Mixed 4×100 news, a World Relays preview and an update on how well Sprint performed on Netflix!

Should be long enough to get you marathon runners round your final few tapering runs!

March Madness is upon us! We’re still getting our breath back from the fantastic European Indoor Championships in Apeldoorn last weekend, but there’s a World Indoor Championships in Nanjing this weekend!

Carol, Ceri & Chris are here to chat through all the medals won in the Netherlands (mostly by the Dutch team), including some impressive Irish performances and a decent showing from the British #representatives

Plus, we’ll quickly whizz through all the events ahead of Nonjing, sorry, Nanjing which is FINALLY happening after a FIVE year delay.

Enjoy another fantastic weekend of championship athletics!

~ trackcastic ~ Leave a comment

We’re back for 2025! And we have to start the year with our annual predictions special!

Obviously we had to make sure that Dave would be on this episode, mainly to check if he still thinks that Jenna Prandini will become world champion this year.

We’ve all picked some prediction for what will happen during the indoor season, outdoor season and the World Championships in Tokyo. Some of these predictions are a bit out there!

Plus, we’ll update some of the latest coaching changes, London Marathon announcements and talk through the year ahead.

Feel free to leave a comment with any of your own predictions!
