EDP68: Rome & Stockholm Diamond League Round Up / Eoin's 5000m Race Review

It's hard to keep up at this stage but the lads are back with more race results. First up is the Paavo Nurmi Games in Finland 🇫🇮 where there was an extremely stacked 5000m where only half the field finished and a deep 1500m. Next it was the 🇮🇹 Rome Diamond League where M11 Track Club's Georgia Hunter Bell got the win in her season opener while Keely Hodgkinson mixed things up and ran a 400m. In the 5000m, Ethiopia showed their dominance claiming the top 7 spots while Linden Hall from Australia and Sarah Healy from Ireland both got shiny new PBs. Then to 🇸🇪Stockholm where again the fields didn't disappoint. Young American Cooper Lutkenhaus got the win over a star studded line up while another young gun Audrey Werro got a shock win over Keely Hodgkinson in the women's 800m, clocking the third fastest time ever. To conclude the event, Yared Nuguse stole Cam Myers' spotlight and out-kicked the young Australian in an enthralling men's 1500m. You think that's all but it's not. The lads preview the 🇳🇴 Oslo Diamond League where again the fields are ridiculously deep, with the highlight event being the Dream Mile. Eoin talks us through his disappointing 5000m on the track where he learned a lesson or two but was able to take the positives. 📺 In YouTube Diaries we give you guys a heads up on Team Makou's channel as they release a teaser on a series following Ellis Cross's build to the European Marathon later in the summer. 👊 In Double Trouble the lads take aim at head coach ChatGPT and while coach GPT can be helpful, he will never make it as a top coach. All this and so much more in another stacked episode of the Easy Double Podcast. As always we dive into the races, the stories behind them and everything else going on in the running world. 🎧 Listen now on Spotify & Apple Podcasts📲 Follow us on Instagram: @easydoublepod📩 Email: ⁠⁠easydoublepod@gmail.com⁠⁠ [easydoublepod@gmail.com] For early release, no adverts & plenty of bonus content, join us at Patreon ⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/c/EasyDouble [https://www.patreon.com/c/EasyDouble]

Fasten your seatbelts for one of our biggest episodes yet! We've got results from all around the world, starting with the 🇦🇺 Launceston Running Festival, where Australians lit up the roads of Tasmania with some all-comers records. On the other side of Australia, in the gold mining town of Leonora, Pete Bol takes the win and a nugget of gold in what has to be one of the most unique races in the world. Pete also drops by to chat all things Golden Gift and his upcoming track season. On the other side of the world in 🇮🇪 Dublin, Ireland, one of the biggest women's-only races took place as the VHI Women's Mini Marathon took over the city with over 24,000 women taking part. Across the Irish Sea in 🇬🇧 Manchester, UK, the AJ Bell Great Manchester Run attracted some of the world's best athletes, coinciding with the UK Road 10K Championships. Then finally, in 🇲🇦 Rabat, Morocco, some star-studded fields kicked off their season at the Rabat Diamond League. 📰 In running news, the Enhanced Games didn't quite deliver the enhanced results they were looking for. World Athletics also released their entry standards for the 2027 World Championships in China, we break them all down. 👊 A massive downhill road race in Madrid gets this week's Double Trouble treatment, as the lads struggle to comprehend why this is even a thing. It's peak track season in Europe right now, and we look ahead to some exciting upcoming races including the Rome Diamond League, Stockholm Diamond League, and the Paavo Nurmi Games in Finland, where Irish, British, and Australian athletes are all set to compete. Sit tight and enjoy this one — it's an absolute belter!

Before we started, we also shared our thoughts and condolences to the friends and family of the runner who tragically lost their life at HBF Run yesterday.
