Backstraight Boys (& Girl) Athletics Chat
The Jumping Mad Edition with Jacob Fincham-Dukes + Fiona May
Four time Olympic Champ Carl Lewis called it an 'April Fools joke' and double champ Militiatis Tentoglu said it was 'dog shit' and threatened to retire from the event, but World Athletics seem determined to implement their controversial new Long Jump innovations.
Obviously this is a topic very close to the podcast's heart so we gathered together an all star team of LJ luminaries to have a heated (If one sided debate). Jaz is back along 🥳 along with UK #1 Jacob Fincham - Dukes as well as friend of the pod 2 x World Champion Fiona May. They do not hold back.
Tune in for all the some long rants about the long jump and let us know your views about new rules.
