So long, fellow Syracuse alum world indoor bronze Jarrett Eaton. So long, Olympic/multiple world champ Brittany Reese. Both managed by another Cuse alum, Mark Pryor....!

After winning world indoor Bronze and despite having a qualifying time that would be 12th among entries at USAs in the 110mH, Eaton is now officially retiring from the sport.

A few years back, after the Randall's Island meet at Icahn Stadium was no longer a Diamond League stop, Eaton ran his race, and entertained the crowd urging us on. He was a delight and will be missed.

He actually won the 2019 world indoor tour 60mH and had a wild card to 2020 world indoors, but the pandemic reset everything and now 2 years removed, seems he is ready to hang it up.

I think they have got a few promising young guys here and there like the one that won the European U20s last year, Krzysztof Różnicki. I remember after Seb Coe retired, the likes of Curtis Robb and the late Mark Sesay being lumbered by the lazy British press as "the new Seb Coe". Not that Lewandowski or Kszczot won double Olympic gold but they rank very high in any assessment of all-time Polish m-d runners and will be missed by their compatriots.

Różnicki is out for this season But we've still got Kacper Lewalski, who also ran 1:44 last year and is still U20 in 2022. He's run 1:45.48 so far this season

The end of a great era for Polish mid-distance running what with Kszczot retiring recently too.
