Episode 68: 2025 Predictions Pod!

~ 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!

Episode 67: A Very ChatGPTeeTee Terry Christmas Everyone!

~ trackcastic ~ Leave a comment

Merry Christmas track fans! It’s time for the annual TrackCastic Christmas Special, where we’ll dish out some rather silly awards from the 2024 season.

With Dave too busy working (at the North Pole?) to make this recording, we needed someone with an equally brilliant memory of the season to help us remember what happened in 2024. Enter our new contributor…ChatGPT!

Yep, we’ve replaced Dave with Artificial Intelligence, but will it even come close to matching his Actual Intelligence? (Spoiler Alert – no, it won’t)

So grab your hot chocolate, snuggle up by the fireplace and listen to our festive special from 2024!

See you in 2025!

There are no post-Paris blues (da ba dee) in our Trifle 65 episode!

A real mis(h)-mas(h) of a pod for our 65th ep, covering the last few Diamond League events of the season, the World Juniors and the Paralympic Games.

Plus, we’ll have a news round up, road race chat and all the off season gossip! Who got married? Who retired? Is Rihanna a secret athletico?

We also want to hear from you! Our next podcast will be assessing the current state of Athletics and what the future holds. So please get in touch with any thoughts, opinions and suggestions and we’ll read them out next time!

Happy listening!

Happy Athletico Christmas Eve!!

It’s time for our third Olympic preview pod! 8 years on from TrackCastic episode 1. Thank you for staying with us over the years, and thank you in advance for surviving this particular marathon episode!

All of the gang are here (sort of) to share thoughts and predictions on ALL 48 EVENTS on the Track & Field program at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

Plus, you’ll hear from five Paris-bound athletes; Femke Bol, Alison Dos Santos, Matt Hudson-Smith, Laviai Nielsen and Rhasidat Adeleke, who spoke to Chris at the London Diamond League.

The Olympics are here and we are SO EXCITED!

Enjoy!
