In arguably the craziest week in in Track & Field history, Jade and Anson unpack all the top stories, astonishing results, the highs, and the lows of a week (or three) filled with drama, and fueled by emotion. 

One of the most talked about stories this week was that of Sha'Carri Richardson - US Champion and Olympic gold medal favourite.  She tested positive for a prohibited substance soon after winning the US Trials and booking her trip to Tokyo.  She subsequently received a one month ban, meaning she will miss the Olympics altogether.  The response sent shockwaves through the world of Track & Field - AND BEYOND - making it one of the biggest drugs "scandals" in Track & Field history!   What was she banned for?  WEED!?!
