The 2028 Olympics

Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network Show Name: Let’s Talk Track Episode Title: The 2028 Olympics You are listening to Let’s Talk Track the podcast with your host Zy’aire Price. In this episode of Let’s Talk Track the Podcast we discuss: The 2028 Olympics and its track runners. Segment 1: Runners Track runners that will be in the 2028 Olympics are Noah Lyles, Katie Ledecky, Parker Valby, Gabby Thomas, Hocker, and etc. There also could be some that aren’t predicted to be there but might still make it. Gout Gout is a great example of someone who might be there since he’s been making headlines in the Track and Field community. He has broken multiple records already and he’s only 16. He barely even looks like his feet touch the ground when he runs. He would be old enough at the time too. Segment 2: Location The 2028 Olympics are supposed to be taking place in LA, California, but as everyone knows with the wildfires that have been going on and that are still going on at the time of this episode, that might be changed. I don’t expect the fires to go on all the way till 2028 but places that were going to host the Olympics like facilities or cities might be badly damaged to the point where they have to move it somewhere else. The 2028 Olympic track field will be in the Memorial Coliseum, and wish to help track events in the Olympics back in 1932 and 1984. Me and my friend were actually talking about how they should host an Olympic game in Trenton, NJ. We knew that would never happen tho, maybe a place not too far like Philadelphia tho. He said if they were to host one in Trenton, he would run onto the track feed and run with the Olympicans. I told him even if you go that far you would come in dead last, he actually did a similar thing at one our local track events for Trenton High, he actually did pretty well in that one tho, he was eventually stopped by the coaches. He looked like a barn yard animal out there compared to them since he had on street clothes. The only sound that could play in my mind was—-----I was lowkey embarrassed. Shout out to my friend too, you can find him in Trenton Central High School, he plays football and runs track. Segment 3: Predictions My prediction for who will win some of the track events by who we know will be in there so far: I got Noah Lyles winning the sprint-triple gold and I got Kaite Ledecky, the 4 time Olypmpian who has broke many records, winning all the races she races in. Cole Hocker will win her 1,500m and 5,000m dash’s if Katie isn’t running in them, she could pull an up-set tho. Finally tho, I have Parker Valby winning her 10,000m dash. She’s only 21 and has incredible speed. I believe all of those are the correct answers. Music Credits: ● Interstellar Mood by Nico Staf Connect with us on Social Media

Let’s Talk Track: Prepping for the Winter Season

Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network SHOW NAME: LET’S TALK TRACK EPISODE TITLE: JOINING TRACK You are listening to Let’s talk Track the podcast with your host(s) Zy’aire Price. In this episode of Let’s Talk Track the Podcast we discuss: What it takes to start running on the track. SEGMENT 1: WINTER TRACK AT MY SCHOOL By November the 6th in my school, you can sign up for any winter sport you would like to participate in. They have wrestling, cross country, and the one I will be joining, winter track. I haven’t ran on a track in a while so these are some things I will be doing regularly to stay in shape for winter track. I will work out 1 time for each of the days of the week except Sunday, that’ll be my relaxing day. The workouts I will be doing are 50-100 pushups, 50-100 squats, 50-100 calf-raises, and 50-100 sit-ups all to stay in shape. All my other workouts will be based on the sport, I’ll be sprinting on the track at least 3 times a day and practice jumping over hurdles. I will also have someone with me who also likes track or runs it, to practice with them for the hand-offs of the baton. I could also learn from them as I do have a friend that currently runs track and has been for about 3 years straight now. SEGMENT 2: SPRING TRACK Even though the spring track season is nearly over, I still have interest in running it my senior year of high school. I've watched spring track runners practice and it sure is a lot of work. They do things like running backwards, sprinting around the track for an hour, multiple leg exercises, and more that I have yet to see. People of all ages run track at my school as well as the middle school right next to it. It looked like the youngest people out there were in the 6th grade and they probably run faster than I do currently. I will have a lot of competition next year because those are the people at my school, then I could just image what the students are like at other schools, never will get to see them train either so they could pull out something on the track that I’ve never seen before. SEGMENT 3: OTHER SCHOOLS Competing against other schools will be hard, we don’t know their workouts, training, or diet, they could be super soldiers for all I know. Everytime I see my friend train and workout for track, I always realize how much competition there is out there, and he’s 2 years younger than me so I could just imagine someone who trains as much as him and is my age as well.

Sha’Carri Richardson

HOPEWELL VALLEY STUDENT PODCASTING NETWORK SHOW NAME: LET’S TALK TRACK EPISODE TITLE: SHA’CARRI RICHARDSON EPISODE 3 You are listening to Let’s Talk Track the podcast with your host Zy’aire price. In this episode of Let’s Talk Track the Podcast we discuss: Another track athlete, Sha’Carri Richardson and her amazing track career. SEGMENT 1: ACHIEVEMENTS Sha’Carri Richardson is an amazing female track runner, I also really like her as a person outside of the track, I like the things she does outside the track like modeling on her Instagram and showing her nails. She really is a completely different person outside of track, well not completely but mostly. On Instagram I see her in dresses and stuff, and it really is different getting to see her like that when being used to seeing her in shorts and a tank-top on the track. Sha’Carri had just won the silver medal in women’s 100m and a gold medal in the women’s 4x100 relay in the 2024 Paris Olympics. She also has a bunch of other achievements such as gold in the 100m and 4x100 in 2023, NCAA Championships were she set the collegiate record in 100m for women with a time of 10.75 seconds making her one of the top 10 fasted women in history, and Won Texas state titles while only in high school. SEGMENT 2: VS USAIN I know Sha’Carri is a woman and not even the fastest woman in her sport but I still like to put her up against The greatest Usain Bolt. I feel like it’s obvious that putting these two up against each other in a race in their prime, Bolt would win. If we put them up against each other now though I think there is a pretty good chance that Sha’Carri could come out on top. Usian Bolt has more achievements than Sha’Carri but has also been running track longer, I think if she keeps running track how she’s been and only improves on it, she can pass him in achievements. SEGMENT 3: 2024 PARIS OLYMPICS When I saw Sha’Carri run out there on the track in Paris I was out of my seat while watching it on my TV. That had been the first time I had really watched female track athletes compete and it was incredible. MUSIC CREDITS: ●Interstellar Mood by Nico Staf CONNECT WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA ● @theHVSPN
