Summary
Chris Chavez and Katelyn Hutchison recap their experiences and the standout performances at On Track Nights' Los Angeles stop – Sound Running's Track Fest – and the Atlanta City Games. We dive into what made the meets stand out to us, what other meets could learn from them and how they all fit into the rest of the season.
We touch on Sha'Carri Richardson winning the women's 100m at the Doha Diamond League in a world-leading 10.76. She beat Jamaica's Shericka Jackson and Great Britain's Dina Asher-Smith.
Florence Diamond League organizers announced 100m world champion Fred Kerley and 100m Olympic champion Marcell Jacobs will go head-to-head in the 100m on June 2. World championship bronze medalist Trayvon Bromell is also in the field. (A day later, Rabat Diamond League organizers also announced all three as part of their meet on May 28. The Rabat field also includes Andre De Grasse, Ferdinand Omanyala, Letsile Tebogo, Akani Simbine and Yohan Blake.)

| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Seuce Mag podcast. I'm Krish Abbas. |
| 0:11.0 | Caitlin Hutchison. |
| 0:12.0 | And today we're talking about two really different approaches to track meets that we saw |
| 0:18.1 | this past weekend. I had the pleasure of being at on track nights, the sound running track |
| 0:24.1 | fest that took place out at Mount Sack in Walnut, California. And Caitlin was out on the |
| 0:31.0 | East Coast. So we had coast to coast coverage last week at the Atlanta City Games hosted |
| 0:37.4 | by the Atlanta track club. So Caitlin, how was your weekend? |
| 0:41.2 | Oh my God. It was a very a bit of a weekend. I will say that. It was honestly very, very |
| 0:47.6 | exciting. I've never been to a street meet before. I know it was in Boston before this |
| 0:52.6 | year, but I never got a chance to go even though I've been on the East Coast for like four |
| 0:56.4 | years. But overall, I just think the vibes were immaculate. Honestly, it was nothing like |
| 1:03.3 | I've ever experienced with any other track that I've been to mainly because the fans were |
| 1:07.9 | like so close and connected to everything. Like I mean, literally everyone was like lined |
| 1:13.9 | up on the sides of the track. Only one side had a rail. So I mean, at any point if anybody |
| 1:18.9 | wanted to, they could have hopped up on the track and like ruined everything. |
| 1:22.5 | Not that we're encouraging that. No, they were not encouraging this, but you know, that |
| 1:26.5 | couldn't happen at any point. But I liked the fact that, you know, the atmosphere was |
| 1:31.2 | so relaxed. Like yes, everything was like super serious and like strict and trike strict |
| 1:37.5 | and tight. So that way, nothing crazy didn't happen. But I think the fans really enjoyed |
| 1:42.1 | the fact that they had an opportunity to be like almost face to face with some of their |
| 1:46.4 | favorite athletes, which is very different from what you see a regular track meets. |
| 1:50.9 | So let's give some flowers to the people who deserve it. One Atlanta track club. And |
