It’s official per the IOC. Shannon Rowbury is the Olympic bronze medalist from the London 2012 1500m final after Russia’s Tatyana Tomashova was guilty of a second doping violation. She spoke to me about it all happening last fall ⬇️ citiusmag.com/podcast/citi...

A reminder: The winners of these races will secure the 2028 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials “A” standard. Athletes who finish in the top 10 of these championship races will secure the “B” standard.

She went on our “Getting Chicked” Podcast recently and said she’s got fall marathon plans!

What if I told you 51-year-old Abdi Abdirahman or 52-year-old Meb Keflezighi can be on the starting line of the 2028 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials? Here's who else already has an OTQ locked up ⤵️ citiusmag.com/articles/usa...

An unfortunate pattern dating back more than a decade w/ Rita Jeptoo (positive for EPO in 2014), 2016 Olympic champ Jemima Sumgong (positive for EPO in 2017) and most recently 2017 Tokyo Marathon champ Sarah Chepchirchir (banned for a ABP violation and then tested positive for testosterone in 2023).

Recognized the orange Nike top in recent race photos. Looks like Sheila Chelangat's Instagram (shila_chelangat) has been scrubbed and she's no longer listed on the athletes list on the Rosa Associati website but she was represented by them for the past few years. This tweet is still up ⬇️
