The 2026 World Cross Country Championships are in the books! Live from the LetsRun party in Tallahassee we break down all the action from what was an incredible day for distance running with over 10,000 fans in attendance. East Africa strikes back with dominant performances across all individual races, while Australia claims a historic mixed relay gold. We recap Jacob Kiplimo's third consecutive senior men's title, Agnes Ngetich's dominant 42-second victory in the women's race, and Team USA's results. Plus: the Rocky Hansen controversy , special guest Ned Ryun (Jim Ryun's son) shares incredible stories including how his father received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, Blair Bartlett's breakout performance as a high school junior in her first cross country season, Tyler Daillak's gutsy run finishing top American with one shoe, and a Cooper Lutkenhaus sighting at the course.
