NIL, Doping & The Kenyan Marathon Team

Xylon and David cover some NIL news out of high school, they discuss how absurd the Kenyan Olympic marathon teams are and some strange doping news out of China. They briefly touch on IM Texas results and get to quite a bit of injury news between Bell’s Palsy, a rib stress fracture and some cardiac arrhythmias. They also debut some new branding and May’s 1% Better challenge.
