Jake’s back and joins Rich to help dissect the key moments from the Eugene Diamond League meeting, which featured Keely Hodgkinson and Georgia Hunter Bell in action.
Keely was competing despite a fall in training in the days leading up to Pre - but Jake’s backing the Olympic champion to bounce back quickly after suffering a defeat to Lilian Odira.
There's reflection on a brilliant win for Nikki Hiltz and a rare loss for Faith Kipyegon, a brief look ahead to the Monaco Diamond League and the pro runner’s perspective on the focus on altitude - with plenty of talk about it surrounding England’s World Cup match with Mexico.
