Summary
In episode 73 of Lifting, Running, and Living, Kelly and JK skip updates to jump right into topics, starting with Minimus Flow augmented reality sports sunglasses that combine watch/phone/bike-computer features for about $699. They then recap the 2026 LA Marathon men’s photo finish and discuss a heat policy allowing runners to stop at 18 miles and still get a medal. Finally, they cover the US Half Marathon Championships in Atlanta, where top women were led off course after cones were moved during a police-officer emergency and what has ensued since. 00:00 Episode Kickoff 00:58 AR Glasses Explained 06:06 Would Runners Use It 09:48 Market Fit And Price 17:21 LA Marathon Photo Finish 23:46 Heat Policy Medal Debate 28:48 US Half Champs Controversy 34:34 Finish Line Chaos 35:15 USATF Statement Fallout 37:31 Why Not Fix Results 40:18 ATC Explains Misroute 40:43 How Cones Got Moved 50:46 Who Should Know Course 54:31 Honorary Podium Update 56:28 Precedent and Legal Fears 57:13 Sports Call Comparison 01:00:23 World Team Stakes 01:05:14 PR Spin and Wrap Up 01:07:09 Final Sign Off Follow the podcast at @liftingrunninglivingpod Email us at [email protected] Follow JK at @coachjkmcleod Follow Kelly at @runningklutz
