Gail Devers (Guest), Sha'Carri & Bekele OUT, Monaco, and the LetsRun.com Intern

The Monaco mini Olympic preview is here on Friday but a ton of potential Olympic stars won't be at the Olympics ( Sha'Carri Richardson, Kenenisa Bekele, Christine Mboma, Brianna McNeal ). We discuss it all, preview Monaco, and wonder if Emma Coburn could be the Olympic favorite after Friday and whether Sifan Hassan will attempt the Olympic triple. We are joined by the legendary Olympic hero Gail Devers at the 86:47 mark to have Gail talk about her amazing career, her battle with Graves disease, doping in the sport, and yes a lot of distance running (she gives her hot takes on Athing Mu, Cole Hocker, and Paul Chelimo ).
