Dylan Beard moves to no.11 all-time indoors and only 3 men in the last 15-years have run faster than his 7.38 (Grand H., Terrence T., David O.)

But more importantly in 2025, he keeps on WINNING
1/11 Clemson:✅
1/25 Astana:✅
1/31 Clemson: SF✅(DNS F)
2/8 Millrose:✅
2/22 USAs:👀

Honestly, it's going to be very hard to stop Jacious' path to success in 2025. She's running as if she never even got injured last year!
First stop might just be the World indoor podium 👀

Lisa Raye runs 7.13 for a High School record in the 60m, and she is followed close behind by Melanie Doggett who is only THIRTEEN YEARS OLD with a 7.17! 🤯

UPDATE: Marcell Jacobs, the Tokyo Olympic champion in the 100m, has also scratched from today's Millrose Games 60m dash due to illness.

A quick look at head-to-head records for Grand Slam Track's short sprint group of Fred, Kenny, Oblique, and Zharnel

*note heats/semis don’t count as a loss unless an athlete fails to advance to the next round*

Glad we get to see Oblique not only race a bit more in 2025, but also run the 200m

Its crazy to think that a decade ago Zharnel was in the 2015 World Championship 200m final. Now entering 2025, he's still only 29 years old and better than ever!

Love that he's still competing, getting faster, and reinventing himself year after year. Will be dope to see him in GST next year 💯

2023 World team and final ✅
2024 Olympic team and final ✅
Pro Contract ✅
Sub-13 (12.93) 13th fastest hurdler in history ✅

Freddie has had tons of ups and downs to get to where he is at, but it looks to only be up from here 💯

The unsung MVP of the 2024 season, and now 2025 looks to be even better for Brittany!📈

🗣️ “At first I was air balling… But somehow I took that half court shot and I made it.”

Caleb Dean DM’ed his way into becoming a @grandslamtrack.bsky.social racer. Legend.

Shoot your shot! 🏀

If only people knew how dominant Adhemar da Silva was🔥

Literally won almost everything possible from 1951-1959 including 2xOlympic🥇in 1952 & 1956 and 3xPanAm🥇in 1951, '55, & '59

Triple Jumping 16m may not seem that far today, but he set the WR on 5 occasions between 1950-1956

An Original TJ 🐐🇧🇷

There aren't 5 women with a greater 400mH career than Lashinda Demus 💯

2012 Olympic🥇
2011 World🥇
2005 World🥈
2009 World🥈
2013 World🥉

Her PB of 52.47 in 2011 was the American🇺🇸Record & no.3 all-time in history

AND She won 4x400🥇at Worlds in 2009

Well deserved to finally receive her Olympic Gold!

Olympic Silver✅
World Bronze✅
3x USA Champ✅
Sub-13✅

Hard to say Daniel Roberts isn't one of the most consistent hurdlers in the world and he low key is just getting started💯

Check out our recent conversation on his 2024 season + outlook for 2025:

WATCH: 16-year-old Gout Gout runs 20.04 to break the Australian and Oceania 200m record. 🤯

🇦🇺 The previous record of 20.06 was set by Peter Norman at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City. Stood for 56 years until today…

Remarkable run by the teen sprint sensation! ⬇️

Had no idea that Makarawu ran in On spikes in Paris👀

He has a PB of 19.93 from back in April, but dropped times of 20.07, 20.16 and 20.10 throughout the rounds in Paris.

Zimbabwe🇿🇼 is definitely coming, and On is low key building up a sprint squad

Noah Lyles Says No One Cares About The 200m. Is He Right? - CITIUS Mag On The Final Leg Podcast, Anderson Emerole breaks down Noah Lyles' claim from a recent interview that “no one cares about the 200m.”

Noah Lyles Says No One Cares About The 200. Is He Right?

“Parts of me that actually agree with Lyles when you put the full question and his answer into context. There are parts of me that think he’s completely missed the mark.” - @andersonemerole.bsky.social

The current 200m quality in Africa is insane right now:

19.46: L. Tebogo🇧🇼
19.75: T. Orogot🇺🇬
19.76: U. Onwuzurike🇳🇬
19.79: J. Dadzie🇬🇭
19.83: J. Fahnbulleh🇱🇷
19.93: T. Makarawu🇿🇼
19.93: C. Traore🇨🇮
19.95: M. Charamba🇿🇼
19.99: S. Maswanganyi🇿🇦
19.99: B. Richardson🇿🇦

And they are all still 24 y/o or younger

Random women's 100mH stat:

12.30 or faster has been run 27 times in history
5 times: Yordanka Donkova
5 times: Keni Harrison
4 times: Ackera Nugent
3 times: Tobi Amusan
3 times: Ludmila Engquist

Ackera Nugent's career is just getting started and she's already one of the most consistent 100mH ever

Letsile Tebogo in 2024:
300m: 30.69 World Record
200m: 19.46 PB + Olympic🥇
400m: 44.29 PB - Top-15 in the world
4x400: 43.04 split - 2nd fastest 4x4 split in history

A changed and mature Letsile in 2025 will be a dangerous athlete to line up against🔥

Just slowly chipping away at my Triple Jump 😢

Young talent in the Men’s 400

Muzala Samukonga (21)-43.74
Chris Morales Williams (20)-44.05
Quincy Wilson (16)-44.20
Busang Kebinatshipi (20)-44.22
Letsile Tebogo (21)-44.29
Lythe Pillay (21)-44.31
Samuel Ogazi (18)-44.41
Deandre Watkin (21)-44.48
Matheus Lima (21)-44.52
Judson Lincoln (20)-44.55

Daryll has been winning Olmypic and World medals since 2016 but is low key just getting started 💪🏾

Considering her consistency at both 100 and 200, don't be surprised if she wins a couple of the SLAMs in the short sprint group 👀

The Women's 400m is arguably in the most competitive era that we've ever seen in the history of the event.

That fact that the 3rd (Naser) and 4th (Paulino) fastest women in history are guaranteed to consistently race each other in 2025 is one of the best things for the sport right now🔥

Finally got around to watching SPRINT Season 2, and I honestly thought it was pretty good! Sure, there's tons of things that could have been done better, but for me, the positives outweighed the negatives.

First Impressions On The Move To BlueSky - CITIUS Mag Thoughts on the mass departure from X by reporters, celebrities, and media outlets as they switch platforms to Bluesky.

As an avid sports media junkie + track Twitter guy, Bluesky has old Track Twitter feels.

Will get fun when World War III breaks out over “The World’s Fastest Man” title with Jamaican fans or waking up to the daily “Greatness” post from Fred Kerley here.
