It's unlikely we've ever seen anything like it in the middle-distance world of running.

Jessica Hull has not missed an international championship since her 1500m silver at the Paris Olympics in August 2024.

25 months, 10 international championships, 12 medals

Georgia Griffith has run into some rare form in the latter part of the season.

Just missed gaining the wildcard to the World Ultimate, but will appreciate the break before racing the 5km at the World Road Running Championships.

The wildcard adds another dimension to the contest in the Diamond League ... who will get the direct entry into World Ultimate .. and who will miss out?

The head-to-head battle for Eleanor Patterson & Nicola Olyslagers has got attention and the graph shows the different stages of development of the two athletes.

Worth noting the World Athletics data does not include all results.

Australia🇦🇺 has been fortunate to have two of the best high jumpers in the world, competing alongside each other at the major competitions over the last eight years.

Perhaps not surprising they've achieved another world first with their recent wins, both clearing 2.02m.

There's an extraordinary event happening this weekend in the USA (aside from the World U20 Championships) and one of Australia's best heptathletes is competing in it.

Josh Kerr's🇬🇧 amazing mile win in world record time, also meant he wrote his name in the book reserved for Emsley Carr mile winners, a British tradition that goes back to 1953.

Kerr is the first athlete to set a world record ..

Haftu Strintzos' new Australian marathon record is amazing for many reasons: one is that it's "unified" the domestic & international Australian best times for the first time in 70 years.

Keith Ollerenshaw ran 2:22.12 in August 1956 at Botany NSW, ...

Cameron Myers' has gone #12 in 1500m & #9 in mile World All-time with two performances over just 6 days, including continental travel in-between.

Again, there are some elite names when you do the historical comparison.

Only Jakob Ingebrigtsen🇳🇴 has done similar with an Atlantic crossing included.

Solid performances by the Australians at the FBK Games🇳🇱

Caldwell's racing down the final straight against Broeders-Bol in the 800m a highlight

Anstey strong front-running to grab a 1500m PB

Hard to keep up with all the great athletics podcasts!

Really enjoy the athlete interviews on "Run With It" .. and Sarah Billings makes a great interviewee having been on the other side of the mic on her own podcast for a couple of seasons

Where do the top 50 run their PBs?

Looking at the 1500m, mile and 5000m for men initially.

Perhaps no surprise in the 1500m its Monaco. 34% of the top 50 in the 1500m have set their PB at Monaco & after that go to Paris.

34% Stade Louis II🇲🇨
10% Stade Charléty🇫🇷
8% Stade de France🇫🇷
