Ben is a natural podcaster. Thanks for having him on!

[@tomekb4gin5ki]

Great episode! I just thought maybe you guys would comment that the Sound Running livestream is no more :-( (Flotrack instead.) Good luck!

[@gregoryluna535]

I went looking for the livestream sign up and saw it was a Flotrack event. 😥

[@user-xi6sz6ul8s]

Awesome Ben , you were great on the pod...

[@ob400mH]

Boston Ben Flanagan from Canada.

[@ltcol.krismyasse815]

Great podcast as usual chaps, love the banter. 😊

[@Islandmidfielder]

The banter keeps it lively... Ollie must have a notebook full of pseudonyms for everyone of derserving of some good banter in the sport😂 keep it coming!!!😅

[@Richard-eh9vq]

Ben had some unique insights

[@tdog189]

dudes! The 30/40 200s is called pre-s 2's, that was Steve Prefontaine's workout.

[@starraza1]

Olin’s uncle, Steve Lacy (Olympian), also ran that workout and he’d do it for 3 miles.

[@telosrunning]

Those old skoolers still call it the 30/40.

[@joegirard9974]

Ben Only Flans 👌🏼🍮

[@georgemcelroy3058]

Great to see you Ben!! You really do sound great on the Pod! Nice show guys.

[@runnerX007]

Hello from A2! Glad to have you back Ben 😊

[@Gasperracing]

Ben is such a good dude, glad to see him get some shine.

[@blazeeisner]

“ Being out, kicked by Jorge a story as old as time” 😂

[@kevinmshea58]

Ben is a great guest. Hobbs is the mile world champion, right? Also appears Morgan is off the start list for Saturday night. Get better Morgan.

Hi Tom

[@womtang]

Hi😘

[@bennygrover8744]

Anyone know the discord where I can watch this race 👀

[@aberdeentrackandfeild9888]

My bone with watching NCAA is the DMR. Actually it more has to do with how the teams qualify. Teams run a stacked team early in year to run stupid fast and then don't even run close to same team or mark. Maybe there should be a rule where you have to run at least 2 of the qualifying team in order be considered.

[@icrlp0570]

could we get a gus 4 minute k update please?

[@bengaunt7475]

Benjamin Flanagan?!?!

[@thodgy]

If Grant "the Batchelor" Fisher is racing then if you watch the race are you also watching the Batchelor?

[@iandickenson7186]

Nico Young did not break the meet record in the 5k

[@theflyingfrisch8051]

Right, 13:19 was it

[@lynncannon7484]

35 is too many in a 400m lap race. Trim it down to at least 24 and that makes lapped runners less of a problem.

[@esgee3829]

is his feet off the ground because he so high

[@esgee3829]

ok, i stop shittaking (thats the gerundive form of the tasty fungus), the red lights idea is a great one. because if after seeing them the runner doesn't move out, he's either an ahole or has glaucoma. both are bad.

[@steveprefontaine9297]

Sofa on stilts

[@matthiusantonin2652]

This is so running nerdish.
