Ethan Shuley, a 27-year-old American living in Japan who finished one college race, proved Dreams Become Reality as he ran 2:07:14 at the Osaka Marathon to become the sixth-fastest American ever on a record eligible course. The guys debate what a 2:07 means in the super shoe era. Plus: Tshepiso Masalela was DQ'd for a finger gun gesture at Azeddine Habz in Toruń, drawing comparisons to Noah Lyles' celebration. USA Indoors preview features a stacked men's 3K (Nico Young, Cole Hocker, Yared Nuguse, Ethan Strand). Sam Ruthe wrapped his US tour with a 7:43 3K, and Oregon's DMR team survived travel chaos to qualify for NCAAs.https://www.letsrun.com/subscribe Links: Keely Hodgkinson 1:54.87 Analysis Who is Ethan Shuley?
