The rest of the world has eroded Africa's dominance in the men's distance events on the track, but the continent still reigns supreme in one event: the marathon.
Can World Half Marathon champion Andreas Almgren of Sweden change that in New York on Sunday?

Great interview by @euancrumley - & what mature, humble answers from @keelyhodgkinson taking defeat on the nose & admitting she was beaten by a better athlete on the day in a wonderful scrap. But her first 800 of the season, a national record? Sets up the season wonderfully!
"Audrey Werro was fearless and I hugely respect that. I've now got fire in my belly and I look forward to racing her again."
@keelyhodgkinson reacts to her British 800m record of 1:54.33, in a race where she placed second to Audrey Werro (1:53.98) in Stockholm 💎

Norwegian “double-threshold days” are very popular right now.
Two medium/high intensity sessions in one day:
• Morning
• Afternoon
Popularized by elite success—but what does science say? 🧵

The Top 5 Players Casinos Feared the Most in History:
1. Edward Thorp:
Built a computer, proved blackjack could be beaten, published the manual. Casinos changed their rules overnight.
2/3. Ivey & Sun:
She spotted defects on card backs invisible to the naked eye. He was the famous face. Together: $20M. Casinos destroyed thousands of decks after.
4. Don Johnson:
Never counted a card. Just waited for 2008 to make casinos desperate, then negotiated the house edge into his favor before sitting down. $15M in 6 months.
5. Stu Ungar: Blacklisted from gin rummy. Banned from blackjack. Won 3 WSOP title
6. Archie Karas:
$50 to $40,000,000. Binion’s ran out of chips. Lost it all back.
7. MIT Blackjack Team:
students treated Vegas like an ATM for a decade. Casinos responded with facial recognition tech still used in every casino on earth today.
Who would you add?

I think about this moment for my dad. He was 25. Third Olympics. WR holder in the mile, 1500, 800. 1968 Olympics he’s been the favorite even though it was held at Mexico City and a mile of altitude. Despite that, and having mono that year and pulling a hamstring, he. . .

Here's the video of Norwegian Håkon Moe Berg's 3:30 for 1500m last night in Pfungstadt.
Really impressive, gutsy move by a 19-year-old to go so hard at the bell and gap the field. Narve Nordås reeled him in at the end, but an outstanding run nonetheless.
