And, wow, is there a lot to review: A sub-2:00 hour world record by Sebastian Sawe at London, a new course record by John Korir at Boston, and a new women-only world record at London for Tigst Assefa. And plenty of hot action beside these three brilliant performances. We get into all the details--the latest Adidas shoes, consistent negative-split running, carb fueling, bicarb use, and an unusual number of strong American performances, both men and women, at Boston. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/running-state-of-the-sport-6598897/episodes/boston-london-marathons-wow/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/running-state-of-the-sport-6598897/boston-london-marathons-wow.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
