Rory Linkletter Survives A HOT World Championships Marathon, Finishes 19th For Canada

Canadian marathoner Rory Linkletter surprisingly stopped by the CITIUS MAG studio to chat with Kyle Merber and David Melly just hours after running 2:12:16 to place 19th in the World Athletics Championships marathon in very hot conditions. It was the second consecutive World Championships for Linkletter. He ran his personal best of 2:10:24 when he finished 20th at the '22 World Championships in Eugene, Oregon. Now, he turns his attention to qualifying for the Paris Olympics. Plus: We get the truth about the BYU split shorts that have become a meme.
