🎙️ Trackstaa Podcast | Valencia Records and the Future of Cross Country #athletics

In this episode, Rich Morrell and Lucy Jones chat through a huge weekend of racing. Valencia brought perfect conditions, two European records from Andreas Almgren and Eilish McColgan, and an incredible depth of talent that led to a flood of personal bests. They dig into what made the race so fast and why McColgan’s performance felt like such a big comeback moment.

The conversation then shifts to the World Cross Country Championships, where Jacob Kiplimo and Agnes Ngetich stamped their authority with dominant performances. Rich and Lucy also break down the mixed relay, talking tactics, bold moves, and why it has quickly become one of the most exciting events to watch.

To wrap up, they look ahead at where cross country might be heading next, from a possible link with the Winter Olympics to the growing pull of road racing.
